I think without Newman, we lack a lot of zip in the backline. Whether Newman is back or not next week, I'd really like to see Broadbent given a run in the team. I think he would actually do better than Walker at fullback.
Austin will be decent, and I'm sure Sezer will come good. Martin will add a lot as well attack wise, so we should be due a better performance next week.
Out of our props, I thought Tet was our best. I'm slightly worried we've all rated Mik a little further on than he actually is right now, because McMeekan looked his equal (if not better) up front tonight, and he was poor last week.'"
In 2020 Saints lost 3 out of 6 with their fans wanting Woolf out - things can change
I don’t think Mik is 100% fit
Sezer hasn’t played for a long time and weve a full back whos been out for 2 years.
Our next 3 are winnable if we can get those wins things look a bit different

| Agree with plenty on here. Will try and find something different to say.
They had 1-7,9,11,12 & 13 playing and were missing 3 of best 4 props. Thought we still got dominated a bit physically.
They made a fair few errors as well but when they went wide the passing was far better with the quality of Tomkins a key part.
Thought Sezer kicked well first half , forced at least 2 drop outs and I thought Austin got stuck in a lot second half and looked our main threat. Neither were brilliant but they have so little to work with outside them and so much of our play is so slow, when we try and play faster the accuracy of passing fails.
The return of 3rd rate kick and giggle is the reason the pitch looks like an Egyptian rag and bone man’s back garden.
Hope Alex Mellor is OK this morning.
Finally, I’m counting my blessings today that I support this lot and LUFC rather than Dynamo Kiev.

The pitch is an embarrassment. I was dragged to Cas vs Salford. The pitch was literally a carpet, Stadium falling to bits but has that nostalgic charm….

I suspect you maybe a Shamrhino and an undercover carpet carrier Shabs.
“Nostalgic charm” for wheldon road, you make it sound like the Taj Mahal, the real one not the takeaway.

| A disappointing lack lustre display, running out from the play the ball area was slow and predictable. Whilst we persist with the present combination we will struggle against decent sides. Wouldn’t have briscoe in the team never mind in the position. Why agar thinks a bog standard winger will succeed as a is bizarre. At the moment I can’t see what Sean Long bring to the team.
Lose at wakey and the alarm bells will be ringing out.

| The pitch is being relayed isn’t it? That’s why weve got a block of away games (unless its for other reasons?)

| I think the reason so many are unhappy is because the same kinds of issues keep coming up.
If GH/ Agar can't get the players of quality we need or motivate/ keep discipline/ play to a plan/ etc etc then changes need to happen and happen soon.

My point is that a club with no budget has a great pitch. With all the resources Leeds has its embarrassing. But I am actually a carpet carrier/fitter! How did you know? Are you the ‘pie man ‘ who i fitted last week?

I completely agree about the pitch, it is embarrassing.
I can picture you now with a roll of carpet tucked under each arm as you merrily whistle sweet Caroline.
Sadly, I’m not the “pie man”, but wish I was. Where Does he reside?

| Funny isn`t it as Mat Smith gave his player ratings for Leeds Live and he picked Briscoe and Sutcliffe as our best performers with both getting 7/10.
Our half backs imo were not very good and Walker again stiffled any attack we had.
The pack was outplayed by Catalans second string pack and Mik played far too many minutes.
Both our hookers put together were totally outshone by McIllouram.
Wakefield is already becoming a must win next week I feel.

Do you mean Matt Shaw? As an aside ive lost a lot of respect for him after his nonsense he was spouting last week on twitter

It could be Matt Shaw my mistake if so.

| I think the problem is that as a pair Briscoe and Sutcliffe are uninspiring. However, they are not a pair. They are individuals working different sides of the pitch. I don't actually have much problem with Sutcliffe. He offers some strike and made a few decent breaks on Thursday. Briscoe on the other hand is terrible. Offer little threat. Not fast, not busting tackles, no hands. Just filling a shirt. A workmanlike player can do a job in the pack, but you need your three-quarters to make some impact
