I think the effort as been there in all the games, we just can’t create pressure because we can’t score points. IMO we look a lot more dangerous going with early ball instead of constantly round the back. The trouble is we just look full of mistakes at the moment. Maybe we should just try to go back to basic boring, mistake free 5 drives and a kick to build some confidence and see if we can grab a win

We been playing 5 drives and a kick for 2 years, just a bit more football been played this year please

Just watched extended high highlights of Leeds v Huddersfield game .Both teams scored good trys, and throw the ball about well .Did notice that both teams when on attack ,seemed to stand way behind the 10 yard limit. so getting far more momentum going forward .We seem to stand flat .

I'd have been happy with that last season.
I think we tended to be 5 drives and just hand the ball over.

Half the time we don't even have an attacking line, just a rabble

Standing flat as been my gripe for years.
Difficult to score when near the line because it just becomes a game of shove.
Generally we are out muscled in this area.
Lying a little deeper and running onto a ball without a man about to clatter you simply changes the dynamic in favour of the attacking team.
We don't learn what isn't working or have the individuals to step inside a player to create a gap. Hope CC watches the coaching manual as used by the more successful teams.

This game is definitely winnable.
The only victory for Leeds cam at our expense, in a game that Trinity, despite being busted, could and should have won.
We will be much stronger in the pack this time around and with a couple of bodies back, we CAN do the business.
Confidence wont be great for either side and it's up to our senior players to stand up.
Assuming he's fit, I'd have senior back, hopefully with Johnstone on the other wing

The first of 4 HUGE, HUGE games for us.

Come on Trin !

Yes, hopefully we have a couple of bodies returning after couple of weeks off, the only problem is Leeds players have also had time to refresh. I’m not sure if they still have a couple of players still suspended for this game.

Yes I believe they do have a few returning including Luke Gale.

Been saying the same thing myself for years also, ric. Big Dave should be running at speed for at least 10m before receiving the ball. His momentum should then take him at least another 15m.. A flat line and receiving the ball standing still achieves nothing
