The conditions were a great leveller on Friday, dragging both teams down to new levels of mediocrity.

Will always give a new signing one year. Whether that 1st year is outstanding or poor, 2nd year you have no excuses. At the minute, it definitely looks like he's on his last legs come over for a pay check

This should be noted by all those who want a return to winter rugby!!

Does it not rain in summer?

Poor excuse for the unwatchable mediocrity on show.

I'll add it to the list which includes SPOTY, the Kiwis, November floods and Silverwood if that's OK with you?

Whatever floats your boat.
I've never cited the other things as reasons for our crap start to this season.

As a matter of interest, was there ANY era in which you enjoyed watching English RL in general & Leeds RL in particular?

I'm surprised at the comments about Galloway.

If you'd seen him play in the NRL for the last couple of seasons you'd know exactly the kind of player you were getting. I was surprised Leeds signed him TBH but you seem to be going for quantity rather than quality with Peacock's replacement which is probably the only solution given the difficulty in attracting quality players from the NRL.

Indeed. he's been a plodder for several seasons now. Not so very long ago, he'd have been a signing for teams like Salford, Widnes or Hull KR. On a positive note, he offers more than Achurch.

Very droll.


I never said you did. I merely requested if it was OK to add your excuse for the current SL crapola on show to a steadily lengthening list of ludicrous excuses.

Not every day no - in fact it usually rains less - surprisingly and it seldom snows and pitches are seldom frozen solid

Think Galloway will improve as the season goes on.

Still willing to give him a chance. The whole team aren't exactly firing so maybe when we can get on a bit of a roll, both during one game and put out a few good performances together, we will see another side to his game.

He was a reasonable player is a very poor NRL side for a few years so those expecting something special have too much into the Leeds press releases of signing an "Australian international" - it was one cap v us at Wembley IIRC.

I also think we'll look a lot better with a hooker. Poor Burrow seems a bit lost at the moment and needs some help out there

Galloway is garbage, time we gave Baldwinson a go. Two absolutely awfull attempts at tackle there, the bloke looks so unfit it's not funny

Simple answer, no!
