Gracious in defeat : Mon Apr 06, 2009 12:14 pm  

A few things....

Saint Helens were the better side yesterday and thoroughly deserved thier victory.. No complaints there from me or most other Rhinos fans

However looking at this board today it seems to be dominated by childish comments about certain Rhinos players with which you seem to be more concerned with rather than celebrating what was a very good victory for you.

You lot seem to have double standards. The leon price song was vile and not condoned by most people on the Leeds board, but the childish idiotic response by the poster on here starting the Leon Pryce thread, puts you in no higher esteeem than those singing it. I also remember the Ryan Bailey and Chev Walker chants from you.

I've stood in the Saint Helens stand before at Leeds and heard some of the disgusting comments made. All teams have those fans and it's a slur on the great game of rugby. It's not a crime to be gracious in victory

FWIW I thought Wilkin was excellent yesterday and by far the best player on the pitch.

All the serious comments are made on redvee.net this isnt the place for adult murmurings I am affraid... We have already dealth with the chanting issue, and clearly shown we only sang bailey/walker chants once the two were locked up in a prison due to being found guilty of their horendous offences.

Who

Sinfield and Diskin? Thats hardly 'dominated' by any standards, is it?

Both will attract those keen to witness a source of comeuppance given their bleating to the ref, just like Paul Wellens attracts ire for the same thing.

Back chat is always a blight on any team, and a reason why Brian Clough hated during his managerial career - namely it takes the gloss of a performance.

With Sinfield, Smith and Diskin prominent in this area, Leeds will always attract some criticism.

I understand what you are saying, however Bailey and Walker had a fight and gave some guy a good hiding (which I by no mean condone) They got everything they deserved. Leon Pryce AND Stuart Reardon have pleaded guilty to assaulting a man and a woman. That's just as bad if not worse

Were you one of those disugusted at the Pryce song then?

To be honest I expected to see plenty of trolling and gloating from Saints fans today but it has been quite gracious both on here and the Leeds board with some decent conversations about the game.

Because we arent as arrogant as Leeds fans. If leeds had won, this board would have been full of smug Leeds fans.

No, there is a time and a place though, not round children etc.
