I don’t think anyone is saying we haven’t got work to do but that’s still a good win, the poor goal kicking also made the score s bit closer than it should have been.

Probably said this before but we are in good hands with amount of coaching expertise we have on this board surprised Storm haven’t replaced Bellamy with someone off here?

Thanks for noticing. Now is any of what anyone has said actually wrong about leeds starts and irratic form?

Huddersfield are a very strong defensive side
they only conceded 2 tries to Saints, 3 to Wigan, and 4 to current league leaders Warrington
We scored 4, and if Martin had converted all we would have won by 7 points
lets not kid ourselves that theyre a poor side or this isnt a decent result

Soz that im not here to moan about losing by a single score to some teams
i dont expect us to go through a season unbeaten, unfortunately

The only thing that’s wrong is trying to claim that Hudds aren’t a good side (not by you)

I do think if we can manage to put a 80 minute performance in we will give someone a good hiding, I really hope we can do that on Friday

We seem to be like a slow release energy drink, great win in the end.

Some lovely passes from Austin and plenty of good displays.

Must say though Connor gave me the most pleasure by missing the conversion and then grubbing into touch in an Agar stylee.

McQueen pointing at the scoreboard, joyous.

I’ll go out on a limb and bet Connor won’t be buying a Kip McGrath maths academy franchise when he hangs up
His boots.

Yeah, nor does anyone else, well done Mr context.

Got to call it Hudds tried everything but came up short against a Leeds team still trying to find them selves both be up there challenging come end of season.

Get a grip Bentley and Cam were huge tackling wise if you didn't see that you don’t know f all!

Watching it back, it was actually a good performance bar that opening 20 minutes - that needs sorting though!

Mcdonnell was an inspired signing! he's been excellent as has Nene!

A tale of two halves again majority of 1st half we was poor, but 2nd half we played some entertaining & expansive rugby. James Mcdonnell was MOM he was very good I'm attack & defence for us, for me he seems to be in the Carl Ablett mold back rower a player who gets on with their job and pops up with important moments when you need them. Nene Macdonald hasn't had a bad game for us yet could be one of Signings of the season just hope he stays fit for majority of season. Rhyse Martin's try was brilliant to watch shifting the ball in our own 20 then Newman with World Class footwork & a break supported by Handley, Myler & Macdonald, then playing from right to left the next tackle for Martin to finish was great off the cuff & heads up rugby. We just need some consistency now we can't keep going as we are winning 1 week losing next, we have a very good team imo and if we do find some consistency we should be there or there abouts when silverware is being handed out.

We'll continue to lose games we should win if we give away big starts. Smith acknowledged that post match, and now he needs to fix it.

Strange game. We look so much better with Handley in and Olpherts out.

Liked our starting lineup but we still looked clunky. Overall I thought it looked a close contest between two mid-table sides.

Main impression for me was that I’m not blown away by our spine still; we have some good individual players but the links weren’t always great.

Lucky to win in the end but an important W and entertaining to watch once we got going.

The starting pack really struggled to compete with Hudds, thought the game changed when Tetavano and Lisone came on, their energy seemed to energise the team and Hudds never really seemed in the game after that. Once we scored our first try I was confident we would win.

Agree re Bentley, his defence was his strong point but he seems to be falling off tackles a lot at the moment.

Cam Smith is completely different player to the start of last season, improving every week and an 80min player.

Kicking game was spot on this week, Credit to Austin’s and Sezer for that
