| This spine can't close a game out, same problem that started our decline last year.
Swap Sinfield or McGuire in for Myler or Tui and we win the game more often than not.

| To be fair to the props, I thought Cuthbertson had a great game, and Mik and Singleton made an impact off the bench. We just need a Peacock, or a Walmsley in the front row with them.

| Let me get yhe moan at the referee out first, I don’t mind a rec getting calls wrong it does happen and they even out over a season, however it sticks in the throat a bit when he actually gets the call right then immediately changes his mind - I think we could well have scored near the end had he stuck to his original correct call.
I need to watch it back but I really feared for us after the opening 15 minutes but what was really pleasing was we stuck in there and for a 20 minute spell showed glimpses of what I think we can become, I though Lollohea in attack was very good and I continue to be impressed with Merrin, Hurrell is just plain good fun to watch and I thought Dwyer went well playing the full 80 but I do think Having Parcell and him do spells makes us a better team. Ferress finally is starting to look like the player we signed and I thought Briscoe had a really solid game.
I am happy in parts but I do think our goal line defence was far too soft today but despite that we could/shoukd have sneaked that, which I didn’t think id be saying that 4 games in.

I am Mags biggest fan but with him we wouldn't have won tonight, and i'm glad we didn't. Yes the ref was shocking, bit we that didn't make us miss tackles. Too many soft tries conceded again.
On the flip side, for 30 minutes we were sensational and Konnie is a superstar. All this doom and bloom is nonsense, we will beat them in October in Manchester, that is what matters, They didn't trouble us bar a few dodgy lapses in D which will get better with time.
Be positive, be proud, be disappointed we did not win. We would have taken that at 1930 tonight.

Yep, though I’d say more reminiscent of Bailey being penalised for tackling too hard. Ironically vs Saints IIRC.

| Just to add, can’t believe some are saying Merrin is a waste of Marquee spot, he’s absolute quality but needs to be at LF or SR

| It was a good game and we probably got away with one given that spell were Hurrell in particular was outstanding in the first half. Once we sorted that right side out though you seemed to lack a plan B and struggled. I think you’ll finish in the top 5 though especially if Hurrell carries on like that. Not sure I’m getting all the criticism of the officials though. Apart from the knock on call at the end I’m not sure what he got wrong for Leeds (definitely wasn’t a double movement)? And you did score off the back of a penalty for a ball steal on Hurrell when it was a clear knock on.

Giving a tap on the twenty because Tui let go of the ball when he thought he’d scored a try? I don’t think ive ever seen that before?
I also think your definitely wasn’t a double movement is questionable

| Early signs are that Walker has a hamstring strain, and Ward has medial ligament damage, so hopefully not as bad as first feared.

I'm sure I've seen it before on sky at least once this season already. Maybe it's a new interpretation

It’s a double movement any day of the week in the history of the game. Either they have secretly changed the rules, or the officials are incompetent.

| Quote: Les Norton "I’m not sure, Dwyer played out of his skin. Roby has the luxury of a better set of props.
Don’t get me wrong, Roby is the the better player, not many are as good as Roby, including NRL. But tonight, Dwyer was outstanding. If only we had a couple of decent props.....'"
Our props tried hard enough but those three tries from their England props won Saints the game. We were losing the ruck again in that second half. When Thompson and Walmsley get a roll on it does help Roby - but that is a cracking front row.

| It is a fantastic front row, which would grace most sides in NRL let alone SL, but as others have said our goal line D was poor - as much as I like Walmsley he shouldn't get in for one let alone both scores.
