| While both teams were terrible to say our defence wasnt better than it has been isnt being fair. We defended our line and defended grubber kicks much better than we have all year.
Some of the play was just absolutely farcical tho.

"Leeds is the greatest club in Rugby League"
Alex Murphy 2011: |
|
| Quote: son of headingley "TBH my immediate thought on walking away from the ground was one of nostalgia. It felt like I was back in the 80s. Poor side getting a hard fought victory against another poor side in terrible conditions.
My two sons are 17 & 15 y.o. & have known nothing but massive success (the odd year apart).
I got more pleasure out of last night (for all the dropped balls, poor attacking options etc) than a 50 point drubbing of Salford/Wakey/HKR/London/Catalans et al over the last 12 years. Perhaps we need a period of being sh*t to get our feet back on the ground & re-appreciate any good times to follow.'"
My sentiments exactly. I can't believe how good the atmosphere was last night, the best this season. The Leeds fans really do need a pat on the back for the way they have stuck with and supported the team. It was like we'd just won a play off game at the final whistle, I bet some of the newer players couldn't believe it. The players gave everything and the fans responded. Too late to save the season, but I'll take any pleasure, no matter how little, and enjoy the moment.

You are talking complete nonsense. You have no idea what is happening next year

The defence looked better because the opposition didn't ask the same quality of question.

| To nil any team in SL is a decent achievement. When it comes on the back of a 10 game losing streak it's a massive achievement! One step at a time

| After some of the drubbings we've taken recently, a win of any kind, against anyone is all that really matters.

That shows how far we have fallen - truly a very sad situation

| Quote: "]'" ]Totally agree it was an awful game not helped by the weather or inept officiating.
That said, defensively we were the best we have been all season so it looks as though something on the training ground is being translated to match day. I thought the forwards worked really hard in particular.
On the negative we continue to drop ball and complete far too few sets. We also look poor near the opposition line.
Still, it's a win and a niling so it automatically ranks in the top 5 performances this season

| Fantastic game of utter garbage by both sides
I've seen some games in the 80's which I assumed would never be overtaken in that regard but last night was a watershed in more ways than one.
To the fans who stayed to the bitter end, I salute you.
The club do not deserve the loyalty and support shown by the fans. They'll take anything positive right now. Even that which was served up last night.
I'm sure GH is relieved that he can continue to extract revenue from them.
For the time being anyway.

If what was served up last night is considered [i'much improved'[/i by the usual sugar-coating suspects in here, then I cannot even begin to imagine what has been served on previous occasions this season.
There were several fixtures last week in the NRL which were played in atrocious conditions. Roosters V Tigers was played in conditions of torrential downpour throughout. Neither of those two struggling NRL sides served up the level of mistake-ridden slapstick that Leeds and Salford did last night.
