Delaney seemed to be pointing to the gap in front of him and the wing, a great piece of play and communication all round

Whoever realised what was on, it was an impressive piece of quick yet composed thinking backed up with outstanding execution.

With the play shifted over to the left touchline it would have been very easy for Hardaker to get drawn further infield, but he held the touchline very intelligently to make the play possible.

It was a lovely piece of skill.

In the context of the game itself it was a brave play to attempt. Leeds in the first half had already attempted 2 early set kicks and it didn't result in a try, so those earlier fails could have put some off from making the play. But it was 'on' and the replays don't do justice to how good that kick was. It just seemed to hang and hang and hang.

& after the 2nd bounce it pops up obligingly into Hardaker's arms.
It's amazing how often a rugby ball bounces up into the air after it's bounced twice.

One of the best features of his performance IMO. A lot of our play was channelled down the opposite side, particularly in the first half. Very easy for a winger to lose concentration and drift inwards under those circumstances.

Without getting to carried away another great performance from Sinfield. What a guy the man is. Quite simply the best (although for a fan like myself the only) captain Leeds have ever had. A true professional and an absolute credit to both the sport of rugby league and the Leeds Rhinos.
