I'll stick by my ratings. 7 is a good score!

Remember the word objectively. It was a defensive and tactical kicking master class. Attacking wise we rightly kept it conservative until the 2 moments of class to enable Mako to score. The players with 8s/9s/10s did were more productive going forward.

The stats will be interesting - they will show we played much of the game on the back foot in terms of metres gained. Defensively they should be epic .

I am not knocking an amazing performance in the circumstances.

It was awesome

He's down at Brook today so be able to see.

What impressed me most was the last 10 mins and the defiance of not giving up and at 10-10 we were still trying to win the game.
One of the turning points in that period was a knackered Mose decicing to charge in at full speed at 4 leeds players, Ablett bottled it and decided to put in the shoulder charge, penalty and we got field position and momentum.

This stood out for me too at the time as a massive turning point. Also, Wellens setting up T Mak's first try - he looked like an ultra-psyched up beast!

If Walker has got a bend in his nose. I'm sure the old hands will be welcoming to the prop forwards union, he has just passed his membership test.

Ant walker is a real tough lad. He will brush the broken nose off and be straight back out there.

It's been a long time since we've produced some really big young forwards. Richards, Walker, Saveilo, Thompson and greenwood are physically ready at young ages to play top level super league.
