I would agree with that. He is an excellent signing.
Wakefield were absolute poop, but you can only beat what is in front of you, and we are at least much improved to watch. All did well, except for the massively ineffectual Walters and Briscoe.

| Solid if unspectacular performance, played to the conditions with plenty of hard work done the middle and not much risky play. Shame we clocked off for the final 15 mins as we could've racked up a few more for the points difference.
Parcel and Cuthbertson obvious standouts but mentions for Mullally and Delaney who have taken some criticism for still being at the club but both went very well tonight I thought. Watkins actually came looking for work and he got the rewards instead of sticking rooted to his position.
Golding looks like a cross between a robot and a serial killer when he's lining up a kick.
People can say we've beat two poor teams but they were teams in context of the league that had been doing well before coming to Headingley.

You could be right about that, I know many Manly fans were angry they let him go and he seems to be getting better as his combinations and confidence increase.
Thought our props were all good tonight, although Baldwinson seemed to play very few minutes, did he get injured?
Still not sure about Moon in the halves, although McGuire may like him there as a foil.
Shame about the last 20 mins we could have really put the hammer down but seemed to be content with the win secured.

| Quote: Ferdy "I seem to remember someone recently coming on here saying the standard has gone up anyone can beat anyone. From the first rounds there are two standout teams for me. Wigan and cas the rest are of the same crud. The standard has drummed down to level the playing field if anything.
On tonight performance we have a solid 9 and cuthbo is on the way back up. Thought ferries looked good in his first game back'"
Anyone can beat anyone for sure, like you say Wigan - Cas clearly the teams to beat and a couple of notches up on the rest at the minute. Catalan are an excellent home team, not so much away and were very poor against us but that's not any fault of ours. Wakey are steady but we were at it enough to not ever give them a real sniff tonight so credit where it is due.
the next three should pose bigger tests against desperate Huddersfield and Warrington away from home with Wigan at headingley sandwiched in the middle.

| Solid confidence boosting win again for leeds, credit to all involved for the turnaround since cas. Much of the sucess is being built on ending their sets much better early in the game. Moon though, is not a 6.

I really can't comprehend why Walters is getting game time in Super League. He's never shown anything to suggest he's up to it

| A decent win against a team that has started the season off ok. I thought the weight of possession and an absolutely dire kicking game killed Wakefield tonight.
Parcell and Cuthbo excellent and the pack in general was solid. Mullaly added punch from the bench. I don't understand the criticism Walters Is getting tonight. Played shortish minutes, seemed to be very involved defensively and didn't make any mistakes with the ball. Yes there has been times he's looked lost or out of his depth but I don't think tonight was one of them.
McGuire looked very lively, Moon dangerous, If more of a runner than a true 6. Watkins seemed to perk up and be busy having scored and Keinhorst was industrious as ever.
We should get past Huddersfield next week and have a more telling test against the Pies at headingley.

| Good win with Parcell and Cuthbert the standouts. Moon at 6 is giving McGuire more space and time and Watkins was much better tonight running better lines, looking for work and even running into the first receiver spot on the left of a few scrums.
Mullally and Baldwinson both went well and Ablett looked to be running at good pace whereas both Garbutt and Ferris were understandably not yet match fit. Mags put in some quality work and Delaney, Hall and Keinhorst worked hard and Golding looked sound again at the back and kicked well from the tee. Briscoe though looked slow but I would not drop him yet.

I thought we lost a bit of structure in attack and defence when we moved Moon back to centre and Burrow to the halves in the last 20.

I agree I just don't get it at times. Let me first say I don't think he has a long term future here as he isn't good enough.....but he's well down the pecking order and only playing because we're missing several forwards. He came on when the game was already secured and yes didn't do anything to impress but you'd think he made a ton of mistakes the way many are going on which he clearly didn't, just went steady away.
He's just one of those cheap guys you get with the Salary Cap that's well down your pecking order. We've just produced a 2nd comfortable victory in a row with plenty of encouraging individual performances and one of the first things people have to say is to moan about a guy who played a bit part at the end and who won't make the 17 when we get even 1 or 2 forwards back let alone the 5 or 6 that are missing at the moment. It's like people need to find something to complain about, that it's a well down the pecking order forward with a limited and hardly disastrous involvement tonight really is quite ridiculous.

| Don't forget that someone has to take the place of Ian Kirke.

That was supposed to be Mullally, but he actually ran hard and had probably his best game for Leeds.
Golding was again good in defence and looks a serious option as goalkicker (makes it even more mysterious how Sutcliffe ever got the job) but I wish he'd offer more in attack. For a modern fullback never to join the line, assist or score a try, or even break a tackle on kick return is not really good enough. There's a lot he/the coach needs to develop.
The team have clearly been playing for McDermott over the past couple of weeks and there's been a big improvement, so well done to them and him. Needs to keep up though.

| I'm loving Parcell's work! Highly rated over here. Nobody including Manly fans can understand why Manly let him go. He's not a trouble maker, he's a very well spoken educated bloke. I think it's because he was signed before Barrett got there?
Anyway their loss is our gain. Great player. IMO Better for the team in the long run than a Segeyaro type who showed his moral fibre.

| solid if unspectacular win. I've been a critic of mullally but fair play, he was very good tonight, lets hope he keeps it going.
moon was not, and will never be, a 6. just highlights how poor the planning was to play burrow next to McGuire this year.
the big difference is we have an end to our sets but you have to ask why its taken so long. it should be standard at this level.
good 2 points, decent display, harder tests to come.
