Did you think? We should've won that by a couple more scores, and we made too many errors, but the pack were on top and dominated the ruck for a lot of the game.

I think it looked far worse in slo-mo than it was but Ferres has a duty of care should miss a couple of weeks.

| Pack wasnt the issue for leeds tonight it was individual errors and sloppy discipline in parts. Remarkable turnaround since cas though.

I dont think he has one in for a crusher, and slams down because Gildart pushing up, but I agree it is very poor technique and a yellow was fair
He will get a couple of games unless he can prove that they both went down together or something (thats not what I think happened btw)

I would have to agree here. I thought we were better than the winning margin.
Thought we had blown up though at 20-18, and Burrow on the pitch. His passing was absolutely woeful, and with the lighter man thought it would be too much.
Thought Ablett, Moon, and Watkins were outstanding. McGuire had an awful first half, but thought much better second half. Only Briscoe could I criticise after that game.

| We could've won by more......but how many teams can say that when playing Wigsn whether they've won or lost?
You don't cruise past Wigan regardless of lineups and idiotic to be critical of a team for not beating them by more......are Hull cr@p because they almost blew a 22-0 lead???

| Quote ="SmokeyTA"I thought it was a really good game. I think Wigan can be pleased with how some of their kids played, i think we played well.
I thought going with 3 props and the pack we did worked well, plenty of space for Burrow in that last 20mins, Sutcliffe was the bounce of the ball away from a try 3 times, Moon moving out and Ablett moving in got us that final try. I dont think Wigan offered all that much going forward in the 2nd half, only score came through a Briscoe mistake in attack.
Thought the pack did well, Parcell looked good around the ruck, Burrow kept us on the front foot when he came on, Mcguire wasnt great in the first half but was in the 2nd, Sutcliffe was dangerous (if not quite there) when he came on, Watkins terrified them every time he got the ball, I think Golding is quietly going about a brilliant season.
After the Cas result i thought it was time for McDermott to go, i thought we would struggle for a little while yet but 4 wins on the trot, relatively comfortable for the most part, has left us going top with about a third of the first part of the season gone. We are in a really good position. Win 4 of the next 15 games and we will probably be in the 8, 14 of the next 22 and we are in the 4.'"
I would still swap in a prop for one of the backrowers next week (Delaney based on tonights performance), especially as we are playing probably the two biggest packs in the league in the next two weeks
That double change to bring Sutty and Burrow on could really open up defences, we just have to hope our forwards can hold on for the first 50 with only 2 subs used
Great to see Watkins when he is up for it, lets hope he keeps it up in the coming weeks
Golding great in defence, but I would still like him to chime into the attack as a link a lot more
Briscoe is way out of form, would possibly swap him out for the next game. If we are going to call Cas a bit of a blip then you cant really blame Handley for having a bad game

| I don't really understand the Briscoe bashing. He works hard and does his job, though maybe he isn't giving enough bang for his buck.
I'm terms of where we are there is still run for improvement. Golding has done well defensively, but is a non entity in attack. Whilst our right hand side was dangerous, I don't remember us attacking left all game.
There were to many stupid forward passes. Not marginal ones, but silly needless ones where the players should be better than that. We coughed up good positions, or put ourselves under pressure too often and a better team will punish us.
Overall, a good win against a pretty toothless Wigan, but tougher tests to come

| Leeds v Williams was very enjoyable imo. Loved Abbo's performance.
How many crushers do we see go totally unpunished and on report with no suspension! The answers is plenty. Ferres to get suspended on reputation and Sky/Ape crying.

The tackle wasn't great, but i think Wigan need a lesson in player welfare. Really irresponsible even allowing Gildart back on the pitch in the 2nd half, that could have been dangerous.

| Happy with the two points. Wigan were competitive but way short of their usual high standards.
Ferres has earned another lengthy absence - hope Gildart wasn't badly hurt, not impressed by Wigan sending him back out.

| We won.....can't folk just be happy, have a good weekend, be nice to the Mrs rather than criticise the performance. Mistakes are made in every game, even the ones we've won trophies in. The desperate need to put a negative spin on Mac and Hetherington is boring. When their time is over, you can give yourselves a collective pat on the back, up till that point , why not try supporting your team.

| A good win tonight's with Ablett a deserved MOM. The pack did ok despite the gloom merchants negative predictions. Young props must not be overplayed at SL level and the forward game is now more about middle players than just props and at Leeds JJB and Delaney have been middle players for some time now and can play long minutes. So the performance proved the team selection to be the right one much to the annoyance of some it would seem.
Moon was an absolute handful all night and Watkins is now going looking for the ball and running effective lines at pace and looks such a better player for it. Parcel is proving a very good recruit and will get even better on the harder grounds when his pace will create more line breaks. Golding continues to show what a talented player he is which is no surprise to the few posters who predicted a year or so ago that he was destined for stardom.
Burrow provided strong impact from the bench while Sutcliffe's three handling errors cost us three further tries. One of Wigan's tries was a gift from a Briscoe error so our win could easily have been more emphatic.
What is clear is that when we are able to field a near full strength side we are competitive and that the players have rallied in support of coach in a very dramatic way. So well done to Mac too.
Ferris's tackle was a bad one IMO and he could well face another ban. PS. The tackle was made worse because Delaney's weight was on top of Ferris so perhaps there are some mitigating circumstances.

For those who watched a lot of Golding as a kid, can I ask what his role in attack was?
Did he link in the line outwide or drift around the middle?
Was he mainly a running or passing fullback?
He just seems a little quiet in attack and wonder what his natural game is, not necessarily his fault as Hardaker often had similar problems
