I'm so glad you are not my doctor. You have a FEELING it's nothing more than shingles. Well that's okay then, you have a feeling. Plonker

Been a big fan of JJB over the years, but agree with these points. Generally, I think we lack some dynamism in the back row and Achurch has a lot to prove for me. Plenty of steady eddies and grafters, but other than when Ablett plays at SR / 13, we've not had any flair since Big Ali left.

You may want to watch a replay of the Hardaker try. Really clever running from dummy half by Ward, spotting the late retreat from the marker before slipping a perfectly timed pass to JP.

Just watched the highlights and you're right. So that's twice. Both in the last ten minutes and both resulting in tries. Point stands about how much more dangerous an attack is if it doesn't just mechanically pass from dummy-half. If Ward can do this, the great. But prior to the last ten minutes, either through orders or nerves, he was more conservative.

A dummy half also needs a quick play the ball to be able to threaten out of that position.

Something Leeds generate on woefully few occasions. We must have some of the slowest PTBs in the competition on average, so rarely do our forwards win the collision and land on their front.

I agree with most of your post and ordinarily I'd agree with this point. The problem with Sinfield at acting half is that we have so few kicking options at present, what with Burrow and McGuire out. Moving him to acting half would further screw up our kicking game (such as it is).
