Wrote him off ages ago Doc. Hes as raw as they come.

An all time low

Writing off this game then? I don't mean the 2 x 17 year olds, I mean Bodene Thompson.

In fairness to JJB he’s giving youth a go, something which a lot of people on here keep calling for.

Looking forward to seeing how Sinfield and Simpson get on.

I also think resting a few is probably a good idea o er tge eastr period.

Simpson and Sinfield cant be any worse, ball in hand, than what we've had in those positions, defensively is what im worried about.

But looking forward to seeing them play at this level, hopefully they do themselves proud.

Yeah prior must be shattered after having 2 weeks off then his big efforts on Thursday.

He may be carrying a knock for all we know

What it does show is that if Broadbent cant get in the side today the club obviously for whatever reason don’t think he’s good enough or that hes going to stay

It's pretty poor handling of him that he's not even getting a game in the reserves.

Yeah, if I was JB I'd be wanting out if he's not injured.
Hoped he would at least get a good run out so we could see what he could do

Definitely something gone on.

Well JJB has certainly chanced his arm with that team. At least Simpson and Sinfield will have played a game, which will help when they play again in the future. Maybe with Broadbent, Prior and Smith (?) he's looking at preserving some players for the games ahead.?

It just shows how stupid it is to start a season short a prop and centre.
With utility/ "middles" expected to the jobs they have often proved they cannot.bat least not well enough for the top 4 leeds should be aiming for.

I hope the young lads have a good game and get injured

Depends though doesn’t it, Broadbent may have brought it on himself, something must have gone on behind the scenes.

There was a rumour he refused a loan spell at fev/bradford. And has an attitude problem. But maybe its just simply he us not performing at the right level at training or in games. Sounds like teddy thrown from player!

Everyone seems to be pointing at the club and coaches not the actual player himself.
