Quote: mean_machine "Enjoyable trip out to Leeds yesterday for the game and I think both coaches will be fairly happy with that. It was a good contest and hopefully both come out injury free but had enough intensity to make it worthwhile.
To me I was watching two teams who will certainly trouble a few this year, we had most of the first half with the wind, and you had most the second again with the wind. Thoughts Leeds execution was just slightly better than ours, and your half backs did a great job overall. The young lads who came on for you in the pack seemed pretty good, should give you some depth.
Best two players on the pitch were probably Hiku and Croft, which is what you’d expect from big name signings.
I think the key difference in watching Leeds from last year (granted only against KR or on sky) is that you looked a lot more organised. Ends to sets were better and structure was miles better, I wonder if Rohan has tried to smarten up a bit as a coach as well and stopped the Harlem globetrotter stuff and become a bit more direct.
Overall, decent game and I was worried about the over zealous reffin at the start of the year but it wasn’t too drastic yesterday I don’t think either'"
Good summary mate and all the best for the season. Nice to hear some balanced views
