I have just got back from watching the worse ever performance by a Leeds side in at least twenty years, they were terrible, they had nothing upfront, the backs looked liked they had not got a clue. This kind of defeat has been coming, yes we have won the last two grand finals but they were due to stringing four results together.

It has been clear for years we needed new faces up front, but nothing done. The person who should have been the future of our front row was ripping up trees for souths on Thursday Mr Burgess, old age is rapidly catching up n the legend of McGuire. Sir Kev is not and never been a half back he is a lose forward. The forwards should have been improved in the close season, where is the replacement half back.

We lose Zak, where the cover, the coach switches one of our best attacking options in Watkins to the full back, he is not up to the job, but that is not the lads fault. We have Vickery on the wing who it is clear his team mates have no faith, because he is never passed the ball.

The team needs radical surgery now and it is clear the coach is not up to it, GH must attack now, before we struggle to finish in the top eight. I will say it again the Leeds side tonight was a disgrace

Yet we beat St Helens last week and only narrowly got beat by Melbourne the week before


.....PANIC!!!!!!!!

By worst performance in 20 years did you actually mean worst performance since the Wigan home game last year?

Calm down dear oh and the Burgess ' ripping it up for Souths were ex Bulls.
We got what we deserevd and whilst i admit we didn't help ourselves across the board coaches and players we should'nt be calling for the Coach to go 5 games in.
I personally had the same opinion the year before last but we came good and again last year we put out some real dross but won the WCC and the GF.
Changes will hopefully come but not wholesale and i doubt they'll include the coaches so kick the dog ,sulk for a day or two and take the loss on the chin then we move on.

Are you actually serious

This guy is funny. Do you do weddings?

Earlier than usual this year. Nice.

Isnt there a thread for this elsewhere?! Anyway,how many times have we seen this type of performance in the regular rounds the last few seasons?am i worried?no.will we lose a few more in this manner?yes.will we turn up when it matters?almost certainly yes.

This is just the leeds way under mcdermott.nobody in the headingley hierachy will be bothered in the slightest and we will move on to the next game.

I'm pretty sure they'll be bothered. They've made it very clear they want to improve on regular season performances, and that won't go down well. While we shouldn't be calling for the coaches head, we shouldn't just accept performances like that, just because we think it'll be all right in the end.

Could be a strange season , saints looked a different side and really put the wire away quite convincingly .
Next weeks Wigan match looks to be very interesting ,which rhinos side will turn up the one with the aggressive defence as per the hull and the saints match. Or tonight's below par performance . Anyway plenty of work for our coaching staff to do.

At the end of the day the paying spectators are entitled to a performance of a certain standard - today fell well below what should be expected

A bit early to be calling for his head but that was absolutely awful tonight.

Aye, there were literally twenty things I would have rather have been doing 5 mins into the 2nd half when it was clear our completion rate wasn't going to improve.

The players were amateurs tonight and that is disrespectful to amateurs.
