| If we were to go out and sign a half back i would look no further than Travis Burns as IMO he is the best 6 in SL without a doubt

| It has indeed been Leeds tactic all season long to pass wide on the 5th and have the centre put in a kick. That wasn't an indicator of poor half back play from either Sutcliffe or McGuire, that was a tactic. Everything else McGuire and Sutcliffe did was an indicator or a poor performance mind.

| Many reason why I'll be shocked if Ryan Brierley hasn't signed for Leeds.

It's not put us under pressure all season at all. It's not like we constantly use it again and again on the last tackle now is it.
And it is a good tactic actually on paper. For a team who are lacking imagination in attack when we get down to the final 20m it's a rare bit of something different, a plan B instead of just saying "there you go Kev, you kick it again". That was predictable and didn't help Sinfield or the team to be so one dimensional on the last.
You also have to look at the bigger picture, will it let us down at times, yes.....but will we benefit later from it by teams knowing they can't just go after Sinfield on the 5th because we've shown we'll try this, yes also.
Has the execution of it always been great, no....but no tactic ever succeeds all the time. Moon has put in some pretty decent kicks, Watkins not quite as good at times......
......But was anybody complaining about this tactic when we played Wigan at Headingley and Hall scored early in he 2nd half, that try came from shifting it along to Watkins on the 5th on our own 40m and him putting in the kick and chasing hard to catch it.
Skip forward to 2:40 in the video

Didn't he put in the very good kick for Hall's try - try assist?

Up to this season I think he has flattered to deceive but he has been outstanding the times I have seen him. High in the try scoring & try assist charts; you can't ask for much more from a stand off. Tackles well also, doesn't miss many.

| Some on here are complaining about McGuire and his lack of leadership and control of the game.
I would agree that Friday was far from his best - something the likes of which we will never see again.
When the whole structure requires Sinfield controlling - quite correctly - on the pitch to expect anyone else to take this role even on a temporary basis is asking a lot. The same would apply if you asked Sinfield to support play in the way McGuire does. Its horses for courses.
