Plenty more of today and we will be climbing the table in no time, but this will be a tough game. Donaldson won’t play the game due to failing head test in the game and short turnaround. I would think we will go with:

Walker
Briscoe Watkins Hurrell Handley
Lolohea Myler
Peteru Dwyer Cuthbertson
Ward Ferres
Merrin

Parcell Sutcliffe Singleton Oledzki/Smith

Quote: LeedsLurch "IMO FWIW after watching the game again last night, we were on the back end of more dubiuos decisions than St's were but were still the 2nd best side for the whole of the 2nd half. Lets face it we didn't score a point in the last 40, maybe we should of been given another chance to attack the line in the last 5 minutes but we didnt do enough to keep in front or win. Thouroghly entertaining game but i think on balance the better side won.
So encouraged by that showing from the lads and if we can keep up the intensity and keep improving on the spine then we will win more than we lose. I can see us finishing in 5th this year and in my book that will be a result'"



You certainly should of been given the scrum and had chance to attack our line with 5 minutes to go ( or there abouts ) even if you didn't score right away you may of forced a repeat set and built pressure.
As a non Leeds fan i can only say what i saw from Leeds was quite encouraging,fast ball movement and exploiting lms at centre worked very well for you in the first half. The big worry for you is the defence of your 6 who gave up so much easy ground ( i would expect Furner to sort that out quickly ). Also some poor tackling in the second half cost you. All in all it's looking quite bright for you and you are deffo on the up.

Good summary, obviously I don't speak for all Rhinos fans but I think one of the most pleasing things about the first 4 games - (well maybe not the first game) is we look to be trying to playing attractive RL with some really nice structure in attack, and even though I haven't been the most critical of the the team over the last few years I will say even when winning the title in 2017 we haven't been the most attractive team to watch, I think this is changing, and with Hurrell we have a player who is the definition of an exciting player to watch, he will make errors but I think the entertainment to error ratio is worth it.

I agree and would add that I think the teams performances have improved week on week which is good to see.

The shape we had at Saints and the depth of our attack was fantastic to see.

I ran to and from the gents on Friday during the first half because I didn't want to miss anything. It's been a long time since I've done that at a game so on that basis alone I think we'll do okay this year!

I think the fairest thing to do is just let the video ref make a full decision on any tries that the ref is not sure about. This was the concept before and I can't recall too many problems with it.
The double movement try should not have been given against Saints and maybe if the video ref had to make the decision the result would be different.
With all the camera angles, slow motion etc just leave it to them.
I am also fed up of Cummings agreeing with every decision that is made by the refs, it gets annoying and im not really sure the point of him being on.
