That made me laugh. Talk about trying to polish a t**d.

Awful game, not helped by Silverwood forgetting there is an off side rule in rugby league. Highlighted the few times Leeds did manage to play the ball quickly and Rovers defenders simply didn't bother to retire.

Leeds delivery from dummy half has to be the slowest and worst in the league. We have tried every f*****r in the team in theat position and there isn't one that can deliver a pass quickly and accurately. And why start with McShane at 9 and then replace him so quickly? It was hilarious watching tiny Rob trying to pinch one from dummy half.

Why did we move BJB to fullback? He can't tackle and watching him trying to act as a link in attack was hilarious. Why move Hardaker? He's been outstanding at FB, absolute catastrophe - stick Ablett at centre (where he belongs) - it's worked for the last several years!!!!

An honest appraisal of the game would be two poor attacking teams, one managed to kick two more goals than the other (gifted of course). HKR never looked like scoring a try - of the two they did score one should clearly have gone to the video ref to review and be dissalowed and the second was awful defence - both surreal and completely unbelieveable. Leeds were unable to work out how to deal with a defence that didn't fall off in the tackle and managed to evade any offside laws and HKR had absolutely no attacking threat at all. HKR deserved the result, just.
Grim end of season rubbish.

Has anyone got any cyanide?

Agree DHM. Apart from the last 8 minutes that was a dreadful game of RL. Our lack of attacking organisation is worrying, seemed to be no ideas whatsoever.

I can only think that we're unable consistently to pass the ball from left to right.
We have arguably the best attacking right centre in SL up against one of the weakest tacklers in SL (Dobson) & yet despite showing that it can work - Sutcliffe breaks the combined tackle of Lovegrove & Dobson to put Watkins in afetr 20 minutes.
But we hardly do it again all evening.
Baffling.
Sadly, last night is not the only game this year where we failed to use Watkins enough.

Another nail in the season ticket coffin for me.

A season ticket is simply no longer worth buying. With a couple of games missed due to work/holidays, and the number of these types of performances (usually saved for Salford, Wakey, London, KR), it's just not worth it.

That game was only entertaining for the last 5 mins and that is purely down to how Leeds approached this game. Their attitude and effort for the first 70 mins last night was an insult to the paying fans, and quite frankly, I'm sick of it. I've got better things to spend my hard earned money, and ever decreasing free time on.

I actually was really looking forward to this game - I thought the whole Graham Murray tribute was excellent, and presumed the team would come out firing on all cylinders as a mark of respect for the occasion. Clearly the team didn't get that memo. That performance was certainly not the sort Murray would have enjoyed.

These types of performance are exactly why I won't travel to places like Salford anymore, and I will be picking and choosing home games too next year.

It`s the same every week.
Burrow is not an acting half from the play the ball.
His passing is slow and he is so predictable it is untrue.
Hardaker is in the top 3 FB `s in the league yet we play him at centre.
The forwards apart from JP and Singo were slow with no drive whatsoever.
If BJB thinks his best position id FB well he needs to think again.
How many carries from the undroppable this week!?
Almost 30 tackles in the KR 25 and we have no idea how to break it.
If we win the GF it says nothing of how good we are.
It simply shows how sh$te this league is

kirke was an absolute disgrace. I counted three hit ups. one was a klick off return and another when the ball landed in his hands. his face when he caught it was a picture, he realised he had to actually do some work.
on a night when we had a tribute to graham murray that lazy idle good for nothing was embarrassing. he isn't fit to lace the boots of murrays pack.

He actually made five in his first spell, and to be fair showed a distinct appetite for work. I thought at the time if he had been reading these boards or been told something.

Don't know about his second spell, never noticed him second half.

Aye , along with 6 or 7 others .

At least we won't be overconfident going into the play offs, fingers crossed any team looking at us last night may take us for an easy win. . We wil then trounce them, says he hopefully .

I can get you something much better than that.

Be careful,one of the conditions every club large or small that helpe you out ans saved you once again when you came out with the begging bowl was you cannot voice an opinion of criticism of any other player or club.No more handouts to you

Lack of creativity and slow distribution was in evidence yet again last night.We have outside backs with pace to burn yet by the time they get the ball ,the defence are already on them(offside or not).

Yet Kirke has gone onto achieve more than most of that Murray-era pack. It was entertaining rugby under the former coach but don’t let that blind you from the facts!
