| tbf we more than kept up our quota of schoolboy errors, and gifting the opposition hundreds of metres of free territory. I know I say it every week, but just how can so many players so regularly drop the fscking ball?

| Disappointing , the speed on which we hit the ball in attack is poor , too many passes to people stood still not running onto the ball. Donno going off injured is a big blow if he's out long term. What happened to Diskin for him not to play ?

| No Diskin or Foster, any news? Why not play Conroy at Hooker? P?ss poor bench rotation again, I know injuries didn't help but please! So what was the injury tally in the end? Donno, Gaskell, Blyth and Sidlow?
Any news on Donno, he went straight down the tunnel..

| That was dire. No attacking threat at all. Nothing. Defence is practically non-existent. Leeds didn't need to get out of second gear. They will have had tougher training sessions then that.
How many times did we drop the ball?
Abysmal and embarrassing.

| Embarrassing!!!
Don't know where to begin. Defence is pathetic. Every player using same tackling technique. Arms and high.
Not one player except kear bent their backs. No one put their shoulder in.
Attack. What attack. Jesus it was beyond bad! No dummy runners. Superstar Luke Gale hitting the first man time after time. Usually inaccurately. I've read children's books that are harder to read than he is. Organsiation was laughable.
No passion, power, pride or effort today. It was a derby again our arch rivals and the players could not be bothered. Time for Cummins to go.
Really sad thing is, if Leeds really tried today, it would have been 80+. They never got out of first gear

| Let's be honest Leeds won at a canter. They started fast, got the game won in the first 15 minutes, then basically coasted through the next 40 minutes, and turned on the class for a few tries at the end. It was like a practice game for them.
As for us - no passion, no fire, no fight. We make little attempt to get off the line in defence and just wait for the attackers to come to us, meaning its easy for the opposition to make yardage with every set. Then we are so slow around the play the ball, that the opposition are in our faces. Everyone complains about the other team being offside, but its not that - its just that we are so slow to get the ball moving they have ample time to move up.
Really, if it hadn't been for the interception, I don't think we'd have scored - albeit Gaskell showed a fair turn of pace.
And now it looks like Donaldson could be crocked, just when you think it can't get worse....

| theres more than one sad thing, but you could start to get sick of the game being gone after 15 minutes
i would be interested to know each player's assessment of his own performance, after watching the video of that

| Men against boys, if Leeds had gone up to top gear we could have had a cricket score against us, when we where battered by hudds and hull we where on skeleton staff damage limitation, that was a full strength team who where ripped to pieces by Leeds who didn't need to get out of first when they did they scored every time.
The confidence has gone now and our only hope of surviving is to get 6pts back and have wakey and London docked points for what ever reason I think of next, but I think we are doomed now.
And I agree with all bull mania has said, lazy pressure Leeds where always on the front foot even in defence our slow ptb allowed them to close us to maybe 1-5m each lay our lack of pressure allowed them to make 10+ with not much effort, our only good points game from Leeds trying to be cocky which they could do as they knew we didn't have anything to scare them with. You can see how far we have fallen when that was just another day at the office.
And paul walker I agree Leeds may have been offside once or twice but for the most part and this goes for the majority of other teams ie. Wigan, Leeds and wire they are just on the front foot as soon as the ball is played we don't stand a chance to gain.

| Where do you start?! Play like that again and we won't pick up another point all year.
Is Cummins the right man to steady this sinking ship?

| In fairness, neither that nor any of the immediate games coming up will have any bearing on our chances of avoiding the basement, as realistically we were never going to win any of those.
it's more that we will never beat anybody with that attitude and execution. we can but hope we' ve got the sheeite out of our system by the time we get to a winnable fixture.

| Pointless buying in more players. Money should be spent on an Assistant and a defensive Coach. As already said we are static in defence and he opposition just walk 10m every play, then we miss tackles and gift more possession. The occasional mistake we benefit from just results in a mistake of our own or a stupid offload that we bomb.

| I never thought I'd find myself shouting "line speed" at a super league side. That's the sort of thing you remind the under 10's about
