Because Leeds are in the lead so they assume (whether thats right or not) that they will remain in the lead and they have been proven right as the Whinos have sealed it in the last minutes.

What has happened to David Hodgson's ability to race away to score? Can only make it to the half way line and then gets caught!

He's done that a few times this season. Lack of confidence - or just not quick enough?

Yep, can't pretend I'm not gutted.

It is disappointing after winning first half but our inconsistency has proved a problem all season and our handling errors are not being resolved.

Whenever the sun shines they drop the ball all over the park...when its raining they dont drop it half as much...whats that all about.

Friday is another game

Time to drop Aspy...any chance we can recall Jermaine McGillvary?

Its a shame we didn't have Moore and Crabtree for this game, I know Leeds had players on international duty too, but we don't have the same strength in depth that they have.
Don't think the final score reflected the game, but as they say, THAT'S WHY THEY'RE CHAMPIONS.

Leeds' strength in depth is also poor. Need a prop, 2nd rower and possibly a centre at the least.

To be fair though I'd drop a Second Row ahead of a Hooker any day of the week. If you'd have gone ahead by 12 points I'm sure you'd have made sure the we couldn't come back in the last 10 mins like you did.

Apart from dropping the ball too often, one of the main reasons we lost was the 20 minute period in the first half wen we were defending solid, it took it out of us and in the last 20 we were too tired to keep leeds out, im happy overall, on another day we could av won the game with ease but hey ho, Cas on friday come on GIANTS!!!!

We have one class hooker and one decent in Diskin. We have Kirke, Ablett, Bailey 7 Burgess who are average plodders at best who should only have part roles in the the team, unfortunately they play nearly every game except for Bailey.

Don't you mean Hodgson the guy has lost all his ability to run if i thought he would give it me i'd ask him for my £20 back, but we might as well drop aspy as apart from coming inside to run the ball out he never sees it, wonder if he'd have scored the interception

neither winger are outstanding, we need someone like peter fox from hull kr, good fast player, and pat richards on the other wing, that would be nice lol
