The extended highlights that are now up give a better indication of some of the attack leeds were producing. A couple of principles that stand out are the intention to draw 2 or 3 defenders around the ball carrier then move the ball on to create space. Also the attacking ploy of running in pairs with the support very close to the ball carrier, makes it very difficult for the defence to number off and account for the short ball. Also sezer looked quick on a couple of breaks and how rapid was Handley on his attempt on macintosh, he had to make up a lot of ground on him and nearly did.

Quote: chapylad "As much as I think Hardaker is good at FB especially defensively.
I rate Myler better as an attacking option and his defence isn`t too bad either.
As long as Myler is fit he needs to play FB with Zak taking one of the other centre spots not that Zak likes playing there mind.'"


Yeh, interesting problem at FB.
Hardaker is an excellent running FB with attacking threat.
But Myler links the play so well and when he joins the line and creates the extra body his passing will always create opportunities.
Great problem to have.
Myler probably just edges it.
Feel for Jack Walker. Looks likely he'll have to move on.

Such a bloody rollercoaster supporting this club!

I was full of apathy, missed my second away game in quite a few years, and they go and put on that performance.

I’ve only seen the highlights but some of that attacking rugby was easily the best I’ve seen since 2015.

If we can put more of those performances on this year snd hopefully get some props I think we might have a better year next year, loving how Smith has transformed our attack!

Fancy swapping him for Satae?

He was great for Hull yesterday. Best overseas prop in SL in my opinion. Out of contract at the end of 2023 I think. Hull should sign him up well in advance. Just shows that there are props out there.

Just watched the extended highlights.
Some excellent attacking play and great tries (regardless of poor opposition).
Myler was superb.
Sezer's best game for Leeds by a mile.
Sutcliffe really does look like a good centre!! (I know, feels strange saying it).
And Handleys finishing was excellent.
Back line starting to look really strong, with some strength in depth.
A couple of big props and who knows where we could end up.....

And he only played 15 1st grade games in the NRL.

Yep, someone like him would be ideal (x 2).

Not wanting to dampen the spirit as the performance was very good.
But the teams we have put to the sword such as Wire and now Hull (due to their injuries) have been 2 of the worse sides we have played this season.
If we can get a performance against Wigan and Catalans then I reckon we are moving in the right direction.
Sorry to bring the euphoria to a halt chaps. icon_wink.gif

I get your point and you are correct, however…

Fans of any team anywhere in the league against any opposition should enjoy a 62 - 16 point win, especially as we’ve been starved of performances like that for a few years

Absolutely Chris and I`m not wanting to take anything away from the win.
But I guess for me at least every time I think we have turned that corner I get disappointed the following week.
But yes 62 points in a SL game is a good achievement.

I was there and it was great to see us play a brand of Rugby that eclipsed anything we've seen since 2015 and frankly much of what we saw in the McDermott era. Am I europhic? No I am not. We'll lose at least as many games as we'll win from now to the end of the season. Any team with a heavyweight punch down the middle will cause us no end of trouble. Dumb (Holroyd) and dumber (Tetevano) haven't helped us in this regard. That being said, I've seen enough over these last few weeks to think that GH has finally delivered a top class coach. Couple of big men and following Leeds might not be such hard work next year.

I think it's his least strong area in my view

I know Hull were hit by injuries but that was a real good performance and totally unexpected. I thought it would be low scoring and a tight game.. how wrong i was. You can clearly see the difference Smith is making. Get him the players he wants and we'll get back up there before too long.

Sezer's best game for a long time, he's looking fitter, if he stays injury free he'll do some damage. Myler was class linking up play and i though Zak went very well in the centre, he's doing really well imo, new deal is a must. Same for Martin, he's much much better in the back row. Satae is a good example of quality of props out there in the NRL that are under the radar but will do damage over here.
