| Tetevano was committed to the tackle. Sin bin sufficient for mine.

| Quote: christopher "Dwyer was excellent and credit to the coaching staff for using the teo hookers effectively.
One of the biggest issues ive had over the last few years is the lack of effort and no togetherness and you have to give Agar and Sinfield credit for turning that around'" director of football role never seems to work but kev seems to get a lot of credit is that because agar semi temporary can't imagine characters such as wane working hand in hand

| According to Wane, 2 backrowers playing 6 and 7 have no excuse for poor last tackle kicks. ![CRAZY d040.gif](images/smilies//d040.gif)

| A bit surprised we didn't see more replays of the Vuniyayawa KO, since it was a game changing moment. It looked to me like Paasi *could* have been leading with a forearm... Probably not, but Sky would have at least shown a few more replays, especially when the play was paused for ages.
Overall disappointed with the quality of BBC coverage. Sick of seeing Jon Wilkin on every time Leeds play, although it was amusing that he didn't like the BBC showing brief highlights of the various Sts GF losses against us... He's still evidently got a huge chip on his shoulder about it
For all Wane's hard line stance on players making errors, IIRC he was hardly a shining example as a player himself, esp. in a Leeds shirt. I'd like to see what he would have done if forced to play in the halves on the 5th tackle as well! IMO he's a throw back to a forgotten era and I'd rather not welcome him with open arms to Headingley. Sport is about entertainment as well as results.

| Wane might have a point. You'd expect poor execution of the last tackle plays. Unfortunately the decision making that went with them was too. For me, that's a big weakness in our attacking game. Were the likes of gale and lui to show a bit more nous it might well rub off on their understudies a bit. I can see why Long was hired, hopefully when players return we begin to see the benefits

with 2 extra backs kicking we'd have had 2 less forwards tackling and may have had the expected hammering

| Slightly off topic but aren`t we blessed listening to the way Wane, Kear and JJB speak.
And John Wilkin trying to be a smart ar$e.
Then we have the TV presenter pulling out the balls for the home and away teams for one of our showpiece trophies.
No wonder the game never progresses.

Committed or not his arm was by his side and his shoulder hit Theo's head,under the rules it's a red card. Your pack really looked good today,if you can get some backs back and at least one halfback on the park then it's looking good for the playoffs for you

100% this. Agar's plan conceded the lack of creativity (although yes it would have been nice if they'd been slightly more accurate) in exchange for two further forwards who did the battering which kept us in the game.
If we could make Lee Crooks 40 years younger he would have filled that half back/prop role nicely.

| Assuming we lose Prior after this season I’d say we need 2 really high quality forwards to complete the pack.
How good is it to see a depleted Leeds side really compete down the middle with such a young lineup? Bodes really well for the future.
Liked the look of Gannon immediately.

| Quote: Seth "Devastating for him, I hope he’s taking a lot from how Harry has dealt with his situation.
If these additional injuries are right then the game plan needs plenty of big mobile bodies in the 17 playing off second phase and trying to control the ruck, we’re very unlikely to get anywhere playing rigid attacking structures. The most appropriate/mobile back row to do a job in the centre and Walters and King brought in.
I’d also try get leeming and Dwyer on together where possible.'"
Glad Agar was thinking on the same lines. The one who was at times caught between being neither one thing nor the other was Smith, not his fault. The naming of gale in the 21 was all a bit silly though.

| Even though Tetevano may have been daft with his late shot it’s great to see a bit of ‘mongrel’ back in the forwards isn’t it.
Prior is just a machine, I hope he stays for another year or two

Agree completely. Makes the game look so tin pot

| Cracking performance today I thought - shame about the sending off think we'd have had half a chance otherwise. Gannon looks a serious player (he's a big 17 year old!). Beyond that, Paasi leads with his forearm/elbow every time - as someone else says if you tackled like that you'd be off so not sure why it's allowed. And finally the BBC coverage was tough to listen to with the drooling over saints even praising their defence when they'd just shipped a load of points to 12 men which was quite bizarre but there we go back to sky now anyway I suppose.
