I wouldn't have minded trying Moon in the halves/Keinhorst at centre, or trying Keinhorst at hooker today but just doesn't look like McDermott will try those changes.

"Leeds is the greatest club in Rugby League"
Alex Murphy 2011: |
|
| Today epitomised our season really, beaten by a team that was prepared to move the ball and was better coached. We weren't the best defensively, but not for the first time, a defensively weak opposition weren't asked enough questions by our amateurish attacking style. It really is woeful and summed up McDermott's plight of being totally out of his depth against better coaches. There is absolutely no point spending valuable training time on the paddock if we are just going to turn the ball inside for 5 tackles before we make such child like, unbelievably poor plays on the last. McDermott is gone at the end of the season, he knows it, we know it. What is making the end of the season so toe curling for me is the stubborn, helpless style of play that will be employed till the end of the season when we can all breathe a huge sigh of relief as we overcome the Giants of Batley etc. A few words on Sutcliffe who seems to be a much debated player after this game, I thought he was ten times better than Golding at full back. Safe under the high ball, and not afraid to take the ball up from his own line. As for Golding, he can surely only get better with experience, but his frailty under any sort of high ball has become more than a slight problem. At this moment in time we can get away with giving him game time, but become the middle 8's, he can't be anywhere near the full back position. As for his kick offs, whose bright idea is that Mac ? My missus would have caught every one, with her eyes closed, after three bottles of red wine, with her laces tied together, having being spun around 50 times. Leave the kick offs to Sutcliffe for god's sake.

collina, the best football referee in the world for years, was asked if refs you don't see are the best. he replied no, its the ones with the balls to make a last minte big decision are the best.
on that basis thaler failed miserably'"
After that I agree about McDermott, the whole swapping about bit and leaving on ablett and not playing keinhorst at all was madness. Our last tackle options were dreadful. We often go through sets with 5 one man unsupported drives. Then on tackle 6 - do we set up a kick? no. we try to play basketball like a group of men who have never met and taken speed.
If hetheringtom thinks we have little squad room and all is good for next year, he needs to give his head a shake.
The last 20 minutes were shamboiic.
They are out of excuses now. Have had 2 weeks to prepare for that game and come up with that. An under 12's team could have set up for a drop goal better than that.

Burrow Mcguire were woeful ,Achurch powder puff Jjb conceding penalties for fun whilst clearly blowing out of his arris so uber coach moves him to prop
Errrr hello, how many times do I have to say on these couple of threads that McGuire and Burrow were poop? But that doesn't excuse the equally poop Sutcliffe from the criticism. People seem to be blind due to age of a player. He was equally as poor as the two previous mentioned. I said the pivots lost us the game, that is your halfs, hooker, fullback, Sutcliffe playing in two of those roles in the game. He is not good enough for either stand off of fullback, and the other two want clearing out also.
I agree with you on Cuthbertson, who has no brain. I agree with you on the JJB liabilities. Achurch was Achurch for me, nothing of any quality, but certainly not as poop as the others mentioned. But going anyway, so irrelevant.

| Do we practice last tackle plays? Where is the organisation on tackle 5. If we honestly think there is any future with McGuire and Burrow at 6 and 7 then we are totally f*?£%d. Bring on the middle 8s and pray that we are not involved in the 4 v 5 playoff (I cannot see how it is titled the MPG).

Because they were awful, Burrow especially so. He is no team player at all, with no one understanding what he is doing next. A little run here and there may look good individually, but that isn't his primary role, and dome one needs to play the role he should be.

JJB's effort was again beyond doubt. He was the man who got hanbury behind the try line and won the disputed drop out. Asking him to do 80 mins is a bit much. Pity we did not have a faster sub who could have come on and given him a rest.

Burrow is a headless chicken running across the field with an occasional duck and scoot forward.
As for JJB he's had his time but now he's done.

| Some people on here are far too keen to keep bagging the same players. JJB's effort is unquestionable. Achurch made good yards and won more collisions than he lost. Sutty was solid at full back.
Burrow was at fault for at least 2 tries, but we failed to replace Sinfield, so Burrow plays in the halves. Golding, L.Briscoe, Cuthbertson were atrocious

Love to know how you worked that one out.
First try, Watkins passes Thompson on despite being in position to make the tackle. Had Burrow jumped in, it would have left a 2 v 1 on outside him.
Second try, Watkins again flies out of the line and leaves a massive gap inside him for Joe Mellor to step through.
Third try is entirely down to Luke Briscoe ball watching.
Fourth try comes from Briscoe spilling a bomb and Hanbury making Sutcliffe look silly with good footwork.
Burrow maybe has 50% of the blame for the first one for not reading Watkins' mind, but how you have him down as to blame for any of the others is crazy.

Whilst I had some guy behind me screeching that it was Burrow at fault for the first try I think it's Watkins at fault.

Mix of the two, burrow didn't need to push as much as he did and Watkins dropped off, a miscommunication that shouldn't happen between two experienced players
The second try was mainly ablett's fault, he shot out of the line to a player that was obviously a dummy runner and left a gaping hole, then turned round and started shouting at other players, its attitudes like this that make us bottom of the table

Burrow is a luxury to have off the bench playing in a side that is firing these days, for all his effort a front line, go to player he is not.
