| Quote: Eccleshill Rhino "The rain was incredible - last time I got that wet was at a Hull away game .
Given the conditions it was always going to be a war of attrition and give the players big props they really toughed it out - the defence was something else.
The fact they played most of the game with 15 players and Ablett and Smith both looked lame at the end it was a fantastic effort.
Smith hammered us once again with the penalty count especially in the first half we need to address this quick if we are to move forward.
Having said that I thought we were a bit fortunate to get away with what seemed a high shot with two minutes to go and the final penalty was the correct decision. A bit a luck at last.
Senior really is starting to look like this might be a season too far - he needs using more sparingly as he is now having more bad games than good ones. Webb had one of those nights where nothing went right and he never looked like catching a high ball all night. As for Burgess less said the better.
On the positive Peacock, Buderus, Sinfield and McGuire were immense on the night closely followed by JJB and Lee Smith.
A draw would have been a fairer result tbh but a win is a win - was it worth getting soaked through? you bet it was
Only saw ìt on sky but:
1) Leeds were lucky not to give away a penalty for a tackle in the air.
2) Senior seemed fine for me and appeared to be Leeds only go forward three quarter.
3) The forwards took control and then in the first half an t then los it after the third try. They never really got it back.
4) They gave away too many silly penalties.
5) Smith was overzealous giving the penalty fot incorrect play the ball on one occasion, when he ignored it for the rest of the night.

agree with everything there ER. i thought our kicking game was bobbins again too. castlefords was miles better and got them a couple of tries. i wish we'd mix it up a bit and kick to different areas and people instead of straight down the fullbacks throat

he had a pretty decent game from what i saw. What did he do or didn't do in the game that brought you to that conclusion ?

Has to be. Danny Ward drop goal. The score was 15-6 and the date was 15/6. I went with my mum as it was her birthday and none of the rest of the family could make it, and it's still the only way I can remember her birthday to this day!

| Was always going to be a real arm wrestle in those conditions, a sign of a champion team is being able to pull through, and that's what we did.

| Can't believe anyone is slagging Senior off. Had a cracking game in attack and defence. Looked more dangerous with the ball than anybody IMO and made ground every time.
In fact, i'd be very interested in seeing how many tackles he made. Reckon he was well up there.

Or do you suggest rotating them on a match to match basis?

No but I do think Senior needs using carefully maybe three games and then a rest depending on the opponents

Wasn't it his break from our own half that put us in the position to win the game?

At present, if you take Senior out you totally negate our 3/4 as an attacking threat making us much easier to defend against. He needs to be there whilst we try to develop our other attacking options.

His mistakes put us in a position where we could have lost the game too

Very true. Senior does some impressive work in defence too, slows the play the ball down well.
