First Leeds -Saints game I've seen in a while were there were so few penalties, no niggling, no punch up and players shaking hands at the end.

Both sides showed how brilliant they can be and at times how hopeless.

As has been said, must have been a good one for neutrals and was a good advert for Superleague.

That's a shame. I would have liked him to stay at Crusaders and build something there.

ive always thought he'd be best at centre, with the ability to chime in when he liked

Aye.

We were well beaten in every game other than one of the NZ fixtures and the Aus match. There were other players that stood out in both (Ellis and Peacock for a start). I maintain that he has little to show for his undisputed natural talent.

Whenever you see footage of the Crusaders training it appears to be Harris and Sharp taking the sessions rather than Noble. I wonder if Noble has given up the tracksuit these days and concentrates more on the managerial side of the role?

If Noble moves on, I'd expect Harris to take over and take them forward where his Welsh background and time served in the Union game ought to be an advantage in selling the club to players, sponsors and spectators alike.

I've been impressed with Harris the coach so far, a potential future Leeds coach even, although probably not given who is boss would probably be.

And if Brian Noble doesn't replace Nathan Brown at Huddersfield in 2011 I think G1 should consider joining you.
