| Huge, huge effort from Leeds tonight, and I hope it brings them a lot more respect from the "experts" on here than they've been given in recent times. We went toe to toe with Wigan for the entire match, and could so easily have won - I thought the call on the no-try was quite harsh, but then again I guess I'm ever so slightly biased We looked after Tomkins all match (there were far better options for Man of the Match than him!) and our defence was excellent. Yeah, there were the mistakes along the way (the one leading to Charnley's try was a heartbreaker, but these things happen in rugby - both sides made big mistakes.
I thought Vickery did everything that could have been asked of him today, and I hope all the critics will leave him alone now. The kids were given the gametime so many people have been baying for, and although both stood up really well, they also made mistakes which suggest that taking your time blooding these youngsters instead of throwing pretty much the entire under 19's team in at the same time is definitely the way to go - looks like the coaching team might know what they're doing after all - amazing huh?? I'm sure the "experts" will still find plenty to be critical about, but I thought it was a really good effort from Leeds, and would far prefer to focus on the many positives ratrher than the few negatives.

As I've already explained, his missed tackle on McGuire was the key factor in Wigan's win.
Haraker or, if Boston has to give it to a Wiganer, Farrell.

| Result did not matter that much for me. I wanted to gauge the teams and there is nothing in it. Goal kicking being the difference today. Still a couple of really cheap pens given away which we need to work on. Work towards a top 4 finish and sit tight till September!

That's where we miss Ablett, his partnership with Moon and Hall at the start of the season worked really well.

For the record thought bailey was poor first half but was good in the second and put in a big shift.'"
While I don't quite agree with the person saying he should get lost for me he has had a dissopointing year so far. I know that opinion is frowned upon on this board but for me I think he has talent but the problem is not many people are being wound up by him anymore and I wish he would concentrate on playing well, like he can rather than the silly stuff

He doesn't really work that hard and has played no significant role in any of those wins, so yeah, they mean absolutly nothing to me and I hope he sods off.

| Overall frustrating due to brain explosions, but nothing to be too concerned about.
We gifted wigan the game. Goalkicking was the difference and 14 points came as a direct result of brain explosions.
Take away those, and we win the game. Lest us not forget the absence of 3 of our best forwards to boot.
Wigan are knocking off poor teams with ease, won 11 on the trot, now they've beaten the champions, so they'll be cockahoot. But I see through them, I feel like they have a soft underbelly.......flat track bullies. I don't think they will wind up as champions this season.

I don't think many people have been calling for mass changes. Most people have been asking for one or two of the youngsters to get a run out which is what happened tonight.
A decent performance tonight not alot between the two sides, and hopefully we can take the form through to next weeks game against hull
