Strong team. Not sure why they even bothered announcing a 19-man squad though...

Looks much better. Said other day I couldn't understand why Wardy not ahead of Walters, so glad to see the change of mind.

Classy Leeds fan!!

That's Andy Gilder I'd assume?

I'm pretty sure he's from Bradford anyway

Thought it was the best ref performance we've had for several games tbh.

Wasn't any other decision he could make regarding Sinfield and the ludicrous "obstruction" no try for Cas was made by Bentham (who seems to be the worst for this particular rule out of all the refs when he's VR.......be careful what you wish for when you ask for "consistency" from the refs)

I thought the ref allowed Cas too much time laying on. Also why is Carney allowed to walk into the markers as he plays the ball without a penalty?

Perhaps a fair result to a very good display from Cas. However had Sinfield not seen red we should have won it. Watkins looks well off the boil and Hardaker was a bit too greedy and never showed his previous form.

I don't understand the Watkins is off the boil comment. He was outstanding last week. I just wish he tried to involve himself more in the game. He doesn't have to spend the whole game in the centres, his pace and footwork could be devastating in the middle.

Hardaker stopped four certain tries, who cares about ball holding. Briscoe with him in second half outstanding defensively. The other backs were poor, but Watkins was injured and should have been taken off.

Thaler came up with some terrible decisions, but I think not helped once again by refs playing the touch judge role and trying to get in on the act. Those two penalties for Cas last try were terrible decisions. The missed forward passes just ignored. The mile forward one in the first half which turned into us pulled for offside. The penalty against for two players in air for same ball.

What about the try that Carney had disallowed?

What about the Leeds second try after Ryan Hall had reefed the ball out?

YOU need to look at both sides. The last two penalties by Cas were completely justified as those on sky highlighted.

A terrific game for the neutral, one of the best this season.

Sinfield, what was that about.

Players with tremendous talent like Watkins can still produce classy moments even when under par. I am not saying he is bad only that Watkins for some weeks has not been as sharp as his early season form. He got a knock early in this game but my comment was based on his form over several weeks now. His timing looks just a bit off the same as some of his team mates and he and Briscoe are not quite gellling.

Watkins was good last week when for the first time in ages he recieved some decent ball , Tonight not so good but was injured most of game

There were some bad decisions both ways. The McGuire penalty at the end annoyed me because we'd seen Webster do exactly the same thing to Hall a few minutes earlier and nothing was given. It's consistency with fairly simple decisions that you want, and rarely get.

Danny has history of that sort of thing and makes it so obvious
