Quote: craigizzard "Also re-watched today and confirmation that we were very, very good. Also that HKR were not *all* that bad, just that our defence was superb. They carried plenty of threat, but we snuffed out any break, diffused any kick, and later on forced errors with defence. They'd have scored plenty of points against most other teams, and that in turn would have made for a game with different momentum.
Dixon's been getting a lot of grief and he did have a nightmare in the second half, but was actually pretty good in the first and we still were 16-0 up. Also he and Kelly were their only attacking threats - plenty of other teams wouldn't have covered his half-breaks which led to his errors. If KR fans are looking for poor performers they should look more to Welham, Mantellato and Blair, as well as a comprehensively beaten pack.
Obviously Briscoe is going to get MoM with 5 tries but Peacock and Watkins were the other stand-outs, both in attack and defence. Everybody played their part though.
The BBC coverage was superb throughout - the pre-game, the commentary (even Davies was ok for a change) and the interviews. It's going to make going back to watching the joke Sky coverage next to impossible.'"
I Don't think we were as bad as the score suggests, but it has happened. You were too fast, strong an skilful for us and totally deserve the plaudits at the minute. Kieron Dixon is taking some flack but like you say he still took the ball forward and looked like he gived a , I hope he learns from this and holds his head up. Well Done Leeds Rhinos. Quality Outfit.
