No thanks. Bit hard to burn someone when you have to point out the burn yourself.
But then you're probably used to doing most things on your own, aren't you pal?

| I'm not advocating the baby and bathwater doing one, but I do feel we need to settle back into simple structures with key positions filled by players who understand that position. Burrow has shown great moments at hooker, but generally they have been when he jumps out of dummy half. McShane has been good from what I've seen this year and would like to see him in the hooking role from the start of games. I believe this would get the team rolling forward better and I would hope give better ball to the backs.

| Quote Fat Boy="Fat Boy"...his first this year.'"
Only if we exclude the Challenge Cup from player's records. I'm not even close to crossing that Rubicon just yet.
Quote Fat Boy="Fat Boy"His worst season (in terms of scoring tries) since becoming a first team regular.'"
Is that an educated guess ....... well you're clearly an educated chap if it is. 2003 though, that was tight, only two Burrow tries in the opening thirteen Leeds games.
Quote Fat Boy="Fat Boy"Bailey has a higher score count this year - now that's saying something.'"
It sure is but with reference above it's not quite right unless you add SL Regular Rounds only in there somewhere.
I'd have thought loose forwards have often scored more tries than hookers.

You're just teasing me now, but you have a point in that Bailey is as much a loose forward as Burrow is a hooker.

Always teasing, always have a point albeit it's rarely relevant to owt.

Probably deserved. Shocking behaviour from someone who was recently banging on about how other clubs should merge or be told to f**k off from SL when he himself can't get along with a fellow Leeds fan ..... even if he can be an annoying little ..... only kidding.

| We have struggled in attack all year especially on the opposition line. I have said this now for nearly three years we are picking a team around sinfield at stand off and this is all because Burrow was not cutting it as scrum half and the burrow mcquire combo not quite right. So we move burrow to hooker to allow our stand off mcquire to move to scrum half. If our coach has no confidence in mcshane as starting hooker I would put sinfield at hooker next year and move mcquire to stand off and sign a quality scrum half like Dobson to move the team around the field and give our three quarters some quality ball. Most teams I have seen this year in superleague are far better and structured with the ball in hand than leeds are. We have been masking over this problem since buderus left and Lunt managed to fill the void at the end of last year. Sinfield has always looked good at hooker for gb and his distribution and speed around the ruck are excellent. Burrow to play as impact off the bench and after we have raidered hull kr for Dobson at the end of the season why not sign mickey pea also. We need to get a good rumbing prop that can take the weight off peacock and Kyle and putt fear in the opposition. Moore needs to be released he is not good enough for Leeds IMO. When bailey went off on Monday we fell apart !!

| Quote thebloodbath="thebloodbath"Worked overtime in defence didn't he? Putting some big hits on, forcing errors and winning a penalty. Or we could just not acknowledge that?
Leeds looked better with Kylie and Bails doing the business down the middle, the replacements couldn't maintain the momentum that was set. Having said that Saints helped themselves by taking the God awful Perry off and they brought on a bit of talent!'"
I have already acknowledged his try and the agressive run he made just after that with his only tackle bust. Ok and he did make a lot of tackles but too many of those were 2nd or 3rd man in where he was able to add to his tackle tally yet wasn't effective enough ie: as an additional tackler he didn't bring the man down but rather was seen hanging on while the attacker made more metres. One of his big shots also looked a bit like a shoulder charge.
I am not sure what you mean by doing the business down the middle. Kylie made twice as many metres as Bailey. Kirke also looked solid in defence and was on before our 3rd try. Replacement Moore came on after their first try and I though made an inpact and his contribution included more metres, and extra tackle bust and an offload all more than Bailey in much less game time.

| Quote craigizzard="craigizzard"Vickery was not responsible for the defeat and had his best game in a Leeds shirt, in that he looked almost Conference standard, but in a game where neither winger got any ball while the "playmakers" were doing god-knows-what inside them and, understandably, St Helens elected to kick long towards the slow guy rather than the dangerous guy, giving Hall even less chance to shine, saying Vickery was our "best winger" redefines disingenuous. I don't recall any barely-chased breaks down Hall's side or any offloads from Vickery either.'"
Vickery made more metres (just!) in fewer carries than Hall he also made 3 tackles more than Hall and was errorless. So while not pulling trees up made a greater contribution hence my comment which was not disingenuous. By the way I am a big Hall fan.
