Quote: ThePrinter "Exactly. He said that Hardaker was "nowhere near the ball".....he collided with the guy trying to catch it FFS, so clearly must've been somewhere NEAR the ball.

Having Cummings in the commentary was a novelty at first, but it's easily run its course now and just get rid. The more Brian Carney and Barrie McDermott and Jon Wells we hear the better. Whilst I don't wish him ill health and hope he recovers, it's been nice not to have Stevo commentating recently. Cummings and Clarke should go.....although to be fair to Clarke he didn't sound desperate for the opposition to beat Leeds tonight....he must hold a serious grudge against Hull then I'm guessing.'"

I used to defend Eddie but his commentary is just getting worse and worse. Time for a change when you've got people like Wells & Carney who can be professional and talk sense.

Had to chuckle when Eddie realised Saints wouldn't be top tonight due to points difference. On Wednesday when Saints were top due to points difference they were 1st and Leeds were 2nd. Now that Leeds are top due to points difference suddenly it's joint top.

Only 2 positives from the first half imo were that we only conceded 12pts and the H/T hooter.
However the 2nd half was us at our attacking best playing at pace and punching holes all over their defensive line.
The highlight for me in the 2nd half was that the game was turned in our favour with players like Singleton and Ward leading the charge which the Team responded to and not having to rely 1 or 2 individual moments of magic.
Whilst the errors and cheap penalties were annoying in the first half for me our decision making was shocking ,yes Hull were faster and put us under a lot of pressure but there's more than enough nous in us to make better calls imo and i hope it's addressed asap.

Your job is to say to yourself on a job interview does the hiring manager likes me or not. If you aren't a particular manager's cup of tea, you haven't failed -- you've dodged a bullet.:icons077e_files/5454-3678dentheman-msnicons.jpg



Quote: ThePrinter "I agree with this. If I was the coach when it comes to reviewing the match, instead of making the players watch the full 80 minus I'd make them watch the first 40 mins then rewind it and make them watch it again.

Whilst we deserve some praise for tightening up in defence as the first half wore on, against better teams we would've found ourselves further than 12 points behind at halftime. Also we won't face such a awful pitiful defensive effort in the 2nd half like the one Hull put up.

One problem is in the first half when we got the ball we tried playing like we did in the 2nd half.....throwing it around trying to be adventurous but when the opposition defence isn't tired and is rushing you and your guys have just done a big spell of defending then it can end up looking as sloppy as it did first half. As good as the attacking play was in the 2nd half you realistically can't/shouldn't try play like that for the full 80 mins imo. Sometimes you've got to wait until the other side tires for that stuff to come off for you.....remember the end of the Widnes match when they were dead on their feet.

Our fitness levels have looked really strong so far and we looked like we could've played for another 20 mins easily last night and kept producing that kind of play. In the past we were very strong at finishing games and you felt if scores were tight around 50/60 mins that Leeds would step up and win it in the final quarter. We slowly started to fail to do that recently but if we can get back to that it would be great.

On the Sutcliffe debate. If he'd have been on the bench last night he'd have probably come on and looked good and scored a try or two as well such was the dominance of that 2nd half. However whilst the argument is that he needs to be getting game time if he's the future......yes I can understand that, but you've got to pick a team for the present, not for 2/3 years time.'"


Some valid points - on the last one, no successful organisation lives in the present to grow it has to invest in the future. If all the players were playing at a high level then it is difficult to justify change. Integrating youngsters can have some real positives as this golden generation have proved.

And last but not least, to all those people who wrote this team off. To all those people who critisized this team...tonight's for you. K. Sinfield, GF 2011:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_45465.jpg



Still far too early in the season for everyone to be getting their knickers in a twist. We are top of SL after 4. Will be a while before the league starts to sort itself out. Think we have done well to remain unbeaten after not playing particularly well. This is always a good sign.

[b:3oz7jfnu]Wigan Warriors coach Shaun Wane told BBC Radio Manchester: "Some people within the club [Castleford] have come out with comments saying we're beatable and it's a great game for them and they're very confident. Many of the comments I've heard have been bordering on disrespectful. They can be as confident as they want, but they're going to get a tough game this weekend and we'll be trying our best to make sure they don't get that win. We've played in some big games over these last few years and they've not played in as many, if any, so to be that confident is very risky for them. They come here with confidence because they've scored a lot of points and beaten us at home, but I wouldn't be overconfident if I was them." [u:3oz7jfnu]Incidentally Wane's mob got stuffed 16 - 4[/u:3oz7jfnu] [/b:3oz7jfnu]:30462.jpg



I thought that your second half performance was worthy of any NRL side as it was that good

I am now going to be sick for praising the Whino's icon_lol.gif
