| Well with the dust settled. What a great win.
Wilkin - LOL.
I hope Leeming is OK. He looked in absolute agony. Maybe a break, Beckham style.

It was certainly better from Tet. And I agree you have to have that balance. I’d also give O’Connor a lot of praise, practically 80 minutes at 9 vs Saints is no mean feat.
The interesting thing is a lot was made of who saints had missing, we’ve got 3 or 4 first choice players to come in too.

It's not the winning that counts it's who you beat.: |
|
| The clearest thing that comes across to me is Saints are a totally different team without Roby.

Good point. We had five by my count: Newman, Oledzki, Lisone, Bentley, and Gannon. I might be wrong, but I thinks the Saints win means that Smith has coached Leeds to a win over every single super league team - Leigh excepted - in less than a year. The lunatic fringe (where are you FlexWheeler) ought to take note.

| Congrats to Leeds - a great win for you and pleased for the travelling fans that didn't succumb to the "why would we bother" attitude that was prevalent on here during the week!
Played some great rugby to find edges, stuck in there when under pressure and deserved the win.
Can't get my head around the Walters decision which I thought was genuinely laughable, but we only have ourselves to blame for poor discipline.

| Walters should have been a penalty but the saints reaction to it and their sense of 'injustice' is even more laughable, seen very few things in the game more embarrassing than that group of St's fans giving abuse to sezer and smith. Trying to compare it to the Hurrell one straight to the head, Tetevano got 4 games for similar on Hurrell last year didn't he?
There was an embarrassing sense of entitlement about the whole St's reaction last night, and I've usually all the respect in the world for them as a club.

Cheers mate - for me Walters is a penalty, no more. It was a good shot, he’s bent his back and made contact around the chest/ball carrying arm. Technically a foul (it shouldn’t be). However the penalty is reversed when Welsby runs in and acts like a child.
I’d say Hurrell is a yellow bc he’s made contact shoulder to head - this is a clear head injury risk and that’s the kind of contact which should be penalised IMO. Sin bin sufficient though.
Saints were off, still clearly the better side but Leeds have got a very good young side developing again now and we look back on track. Have to say genuinely disappointed with the very poor sportsmanship from some Saints players and fans, it looked terrible from the flagship team in the comp. Small minority I know.

| If hurrells isn't a red I'm not sure what is, direct shoulder to the chin.

I don't think penalties for foul play get reversed for what Welsby did, the ref simply didn't think it was a penalty which is mad.
We only have ourselves to blame for blatant indiscipline but that was also blatant indiscipline. Was strange, particularly for a televised game!
Anyway, well done Leeds. Genuinely hope we get proper competition amongst the bigger teams this year - Wire, Wigan, Wolves, Catalans all being up there challenging would be good for the league.

Well the tef thought otherwise, listen to his explanation.
Morgan knowles does the same every game.
Don’t know whats more enjoyable the win or the epic meltdown from saints fans and players who seem to think St Helens aren’t allowed to lose

I find it amusing that you were adamant that Welsby should have got a "clear red card" last week and then claim that isn't a shoulder charge.
Methinks someone is a little rattled by all the success Saints are having
Enjoy the win - well deserved. Hopefully Leeds can back it up as a lot of teams crumble the week after they've managed to go 80 with Saints.

How are Knowles and Welbslys bans going from last week, oh wait.
Had your own way for last few years and one debatable decision goes against you and your crying like babies:

Correct Shabs. It wasn't high.
But it was a shoulder charge and should have been penalised, We got away with one there. But Saints got plenty of calls in the game.
Someone needs to speak to Welsby. He can't take the law into his own hands - and he has ultimately cost them the game.
Myler was whacked 3 times. All were, quite rightly, punished.
Did our players come flying up the pitch to start on the player? No.
