We’ve got something to build on here, we had 15 minutes of madness but if Lisone doesn’t try to be something he’s not, and we don’t clock off we have a different game there.


I’m actually happier after that than last week.

We have an aussie coach, what do we expect? the difference in NRL and superleague is the speed of the play the ball. NRL still have 4 - 5 drives and a kick. Its all BA knows. I get he has improved our defence and line speed but that is it.

I’m starting to question the signing of ECW.


Surely we had the chance to bring in a player of quality in a position we needed added strength?


All we seem to have done is bring in a quota back to play in the reserves, when it looks like Lumb and Edgell are the preferred options to replace Sivo.


If we are not intending to use ECW in the matchday 13 most weeks then what was the point of signing him as we are effectively wasting the quota spot that became free on losing Sivo, when it would have been better used brining in another forward?


It’s looking more and more of an odd decision for me.


IF there was no one of real quality available then don’t use the quota spot for the sake of using it, wait until mid season when some players often become available from overseas 

There were signs that Croft, Connor and Miller will form a decent combination. 
McDonnell, Mik and Palasia were good.


Lisone needs to stop thinking he’s Crooks or Cuthbertson during his 15 minute spell and just revert back to his usual 2 drives. Won’t be sad if he’s not at Leeds next year. 

Saints had an extra half second in every tackle by holding down/flop.
That's not moaning at the ref. That's either earned from impact or by application. Either way it made a big difference. Honestly still think our issues are in defence rather than attack. 

I've calmed down a bit and rewatched the game after getting home.


That game was there to be won, I'm putting that loss down to Lisone, that pass when we were really getting on top of saints with territory was just a really dumb play.


Id like Connor to stay at 7 bar that ridiculous pass near the end I thought he went well and can see a decent link up with Miller.


I think I was harsh on the attack, rethinking it we haven't had the same spine in any of the games this year, that's really hard for a team to fire.
