Sinfield was one of the greatest of all time kickers who wins you several games a season from his boot alone not to mention his conversion rate in pressure cooker situations. We were never going to replace that but i think Watkins is the best we have, don't see why we keep giving Myler a go, he is not even average.

I was pretty serious. All those would be in our first choice 17.

You are right about Golding who tightened our middle defence up and was effective in the hooker role on one of those rare occasions when Parcell was having an off night.

Great decision by Brian Mac to bring Parcell off. it turned the game. I've said for a long time he's a poser and when you break his games down he devalues the team. I can't believe you don't have a better kicker than Callum. Sort it or it will cost you more close games.

You do realise the number of 1st team players Leeds had missing tonight don't you??

McDermott wasn't happy with the ref, particularly with the 2 penalties against Watkins for a shoulder charge, and Briscoe for a tackle in the air. Apparently, neither were penalties based on what was agreed between the coaches and the refs in pre-season.

Again the ref was inconsistent Milner got away with a shoulder charge.

Not too disappointed least we showed some heart. My only disappointment was Delaney didn’t leather Gale. Can’t stand him.

Thought mcshane has come on loads since his leeds days

Haven't watched it back but on the night I thought Kendall was poor and gave us little. There looked to be a couple of Premier League style flops to buy penalties as well - don't want to see that creeping in.

I'd happily let you have this lot back if we had Garbutt, Cuthbertson, Ward and Sutcliffe available.

No idea what was agreed pre-season but challenges similar to Briscoe's have been penalised routinely for several years now including this one. Don't see how he can have any issue there tbh. Watkins' one, I didn't see too clearly; if it was a shoulder charge it was a pretty feeble one.

Not to mention Ferres, Peteru, Keinhorst, Dwyer & Ormondroyd. And I suppose we should count the missing forward caused by Galloway leaving. Quite an injury list.

Cas fans are counting watts as missing, even though he us suspended and only just signed for them.

I wouldnt count no ormondroyd as a loss. Don’t know why but feel a bit concerned with Peteru, I’m not fully convinced we will see him play again for us

Despicable first 15 minutes from us last night, ultimately it cost us the game, we simply did not turn up they did not have to work hard for any of their trys. After that superb dominated the game and really should have won.
But getting a bit sick of these regular round no shows against them, it’s embarrassing now. Need to give them a good hiding next time we play.

I was thinking that.
And with galloway gone and ferres just never playing we are essentially 3 players missing all starters in theory.

And really geeling that Stevie ward is going to have to retire young as well.
