Absolutely. His try was superb yet the Sky team seemed more intent to focus on the Bulls poor defence, missing a perfect opportunity to remind the viewers Watkins scored a similar try last weekend (perhaps even a highlight of it at half time). Too much focus entirely on the Bulls defence and far too little emphasis on what a brilliant young threequarter this lad is.

Had Greg Inglis scored two tries like Watkins has the last two weeks many rugby league observers and media members would be suffering tennis elbow from the amount of flagellation

Great footwork but it was really a poor attempt from Walker/Olbison in the tackle. I was embarrassed at that. Watkins did extremely well to run around Kearney though in at that angle.

Spot on, and it would have been further proof of just how much better the NRL is.

Watkins is a superb athlete who also has a good passing game. If anything, those two tries should emphasise the importance of getting him the ball as often as possible and in space.

The only areas of his game he needs to work on are defence (especially head on) and judging when to try his flick pass.

I think that may have been drilled into the back three over the last few weeks. They do seem to be more keen to shift the point of attack on kick returns, working hard to get themselves back into position when the ball is on the other side of the field.

I did notice on Friday that Leeds were occasionally retiring 3 players on the 5th, something that they've not done for some time.

Shhh, don't tell Danny Brough.

Could not agree more. He is a very special talent and I hope Leeds manage to retain his services for many years.

Individuals like this (along with Hardaker, Moon. Hall, Burrow etc) complemented by a brilliant team ethos that Leeds happily continue to demonstrate is what encourages me to make the 200 mile round trip as often as possible with my lad. (just glad I don't need to pay for the fuel or running costs )
