| Funny how Lolohea gets the big talk, and it certainly deserves some, but by far and away our biggest issue defensively last night was Jones Buchanan. Missed a lot, but far more importantly it was his gaps left because he coukdn’t Move quick enough, that contributed to bigger issues, and these would not show on stats. Also would bet only Handley with his constant backwards/sideways runs would match his low metres per carry.

| Agree regarding Walker. He lacks nothing in heart but is just a bit too lightweight in defence at times. Also his kicks out on the full were real poor plays. It doesn't matter how strong the wind is he should be able to land the ball in the field of play.
Lolohea should be dropped, but not sure if we could fire him for his weight issue? We signed an overweight player and that is what we have got. Poor recruitment by Sinfield.
The defensive display was so poor, especially in the first half, it is hard to single players out. JJB was at fault at times but so was the other second rower Smith. Indeed the much maligned Ferres may have strengthened the feeble defence.

| Errors from 20 year olds playing in the firestorm pressure at Leeds is not a great surprise. Walker was brilliant against Cas and awful against Wigan and HKR. Inconsistency is quite common with inexperienced/under-developed lads.

Walker wasn't awful against Hull KR though, it is utter nonsense that people are talking. His kicking game with the drop out and two out on the full cost us though that is undeniable. And whilst the drop out is excusable as it was a risk worth going for, the kicks off were not. But people forget his 3 try saving tackles, and the amount of yardage he made, and when the attack moves were put on, the only danger to link. Not quite sure what these people think another fullback will bring, because none of the try's conceeded would have been altered by someone else, and that someone else would more than likely have a negative effect on the attacking plans.

Perhaps he needs to concentrate on his TV career with the awful Alex Simmons and interview himself about his performance.
He's done sadly. Great servant but time to fall on his sword.

I suggest you watch a replay of the try his elbow never ht the ground due to the fact Walker held it up.

It clearly hit the ground, no question on that.

Walker was one of our better performers, even with the crap kicks.
This board is full of people wanting to give kids a go, fine, but they will make mistakes and Jack Walker is learning his trade in one of the most difficult positions, he will have ups and downs.

| In previous seasons when one of our kids made the inevitable mistakes, we had enough quality and determination to recover from it, these days it’s a different story.
Walker needs to develop, but the only way he’ll do that is by playing. Same for Smith and Oledzki.
What we desperately need for these kids to fulfil their potential is to surround them by better quality senior pros. GH and KS have made some terrible decisions in this regard in the last few years.

| If you keep signing Championship players you will end up in the Championship.
The team looks like it lacks real pace especially in the forwards, halves and backs - everywhere basically.
Tackling is a real issue - not sure what they do in training. How many times will wingers score untouched against us before the coaching set up do something. As for JJB - time to retire when Drinkwater can run passed you you really do have a problem
I didn't think relegation was an issue but I do now - the likes of Albert aren't going to materially change anything in fact he will dilute an already poor squad
