Quote: christopher "Classic game of 2 halves, cas easily best team first, Leeds best team second.'"
Spot on. For Leeds in both of their SL opposition friendlies this has been the case, interesting to see if this translates to the opening league game. Only Furner’s second friendly with the first string and today was the first game he had with several key players such as Watkins, Hurrell, Merrin and Parcell so plenty of work in progress. Obviously a friendly but Hurrell looked very good. Had a young centre in Newman on the wing with both Briscoe’s missing and he had some struggles that led to a few tries, but Tom Briscoe is expected to be fit for Round 1. Both teams may be concerned about goal kicking this season.
