A severe dose of Humble Pie Adversion brought on by Rhinosuccessitis and an overdose of NRL syndrome which brought on a recurring SPOTY rash. |

Did Jones-Buchanan play the full eighty (?), I thought I saw him with a training top on at the final handshakes, fantastic effort either way but he gave away his usual quota of pens including a bad one when Leeds had St Helens struggling to clear their lines and that enthusiasm got the better of him .... again.
Charging car on way to Leeds so not able to review footage until tomorrow to confirm.

They finally pulled JJB off on about 75 minutes. Got a great, and well deserved, ovation. |

Last year Sandow tore apart the Rabbitos virtually on his own, the standard of top 8 NRL teams that bad as well?

The eels needed to get rid of him because they wanted to play a more structured game under Arthur, and Sandow came out to the press and said that if the coach let him play off the cuff he would win more games, little to do with his playing ability.
He has always had the capability to win games on his own but then often drops format certain points in a season, I expect no difference in SL
Kidley in that respect is the perfect foil for Sandow as for the last few years he has been unspectacular but consistant for the knights
Im not saying SL is high quality atm, far from it, but its stupid to say that the form of the Wire halves in indicative of the SL NRL gulf because they played similar down under

| Quote: Biff Tannen "SL is dire at the minute, i can't argue with you there William i havn't watched a game yet where i thought wow that was good quality. I was shaking my head in disbelief at the pish poor tackling on display last night from two teams who would expect and probably will be challenging. Saints had close to a full side too which must be a worry for them that they can't put away a struggling Leeds team, they have dropped away so much in quality and playing style the last decade and the fact they are still in the mix does say a lot.
Anyway, comp is what it is, hopefully things improve in coming months but i have to admit I'm not enjoying SL at the minute and that has nothing to do with Leeds poor start its the entertainment value accross the board.'"
agree with this. There were some really poor errors last night from both sides. Leeds worked hard to win it but so much room for improvement.very disjointed. Whilst Leeds have a new Middle which keeps changing, saints are more settled and at times looked much more structured but some awful errors. Thought Galloway and ferres had best games to date. Ferres deserves praise for having played every minute this year |

I am continually disappointed by the decline in kolpak stiffs in SL these days. Standards have slipped since the halcyon days of Dom Feaunati and Mark Leafa terrorising defences. We have to accept that homegrown talent isn't good enough and we need to bring in more big islander lads on the fringes of the NRL.

Over 3 years since a post and this is what you come back with 
Seems its not only the standards of SL that have declined  |
