Leuluai flattened Randall. Why does it have to be in the build up to a try? Its taking a player out off the ball - nothing to do with obstruction, its still a penalty.

Even for you this is emarrasing and thats saying something - T......R.....Y.

Look, admitting your knowledge of the game is questionable may be the first steps on the road to recovery, come on, be a man and take those steps!!

T........R........Y - by plenty.

Having watched the game via the comfort of my sofa, without the sun in my eyes, I have to say that with the exception of the first 10 -12 minutes, Leeds dominated the play.

Quins were at the races in those first 10 mins Rhino's weren't. When you get phases in games such as that then you have to capitilise on them. Scoring only 4 points isn't doing that. Sinfield rallied his boys with a few sharp words. Did we miss Purdham's leadership last night during this crucile stage of play? I suspect we did. Webb also made a try saving ingoal tackle at a stage of the game when Quins were still in the hunt.

When Quins turned over the ball, Rhino's made better use of it than when the situation was reversed.

Sharp had a mare, Randall a good game but not up to his recent high standands and again Howell showed his worth in a Quins shirt.

At this stage in the season I can't see beyond a Saints & Rhino's grand final.

And if at the begining of the season anyone had said we'd be in striking distance of home advantage in the play offs we'd have all bitten of their hand.

keep the faith

I thought we got out of the blocks well and dominated early, then fell into a trap of over confidence.

Leeds, Saints etc will always thrash a team when they get in front by 20 and there confidence is high-The calibre and speed of there players is brilliant. The difficult part is stopping them playing by pressuring them early which is what we did at Leeds and for the first 10 last night(Leeds kept making "unforced errors").

Once they Let rip there is no stopping them. We made some terrible mistakes last night and helped them along.

Sharpe surely wont be a Wakey next week-unless the reserves are there.

Losing Gayle didn't help forcing Howell into 6.

Lest forget the game and move on

Howell knocked Randall over after bouncing off Leuluai. Why was Howell trying to tackle Leuluai when he didn't have the ball? Don't agree with you on that one at all.

Only seen it once so could be wrong. Would have to check again tbh. You could argue it all day - why was Leuluai running into Howell when he didn't have the ball?
