3) Can we please start a petition to ban wannabe musicians from all Super League grounds. How Leeds fans cope with that every week, f*ck knows! They're not the only ones of course but if stewards are banning people from bringing bottles of water etc into the ground then they can do us all a favour and confiscate drums and trumpets.

half the reason why its so hard to play at headingley with a hostile crowd and makes poor listening via sky, for the first time I turned the sound nearly off it drove me crazy listening to it so gawd knows anyone with and sense would want to stand near that,
I remember while sky had to make do last season and the band placed them selves below the commentary team and Eddie made the comment for them to move away. it needs addressing seriously.
the one good thing is that in the second half it seemed to go a little quite

| Quote SaleSlim="SaleSlim"TBF Hurrell did punch a few holes and is a massive handful with ball in hand but he's obviously not fully fit and defensively a bit of a liability. Get him up against a fast centre with decent footwork and he'll struggle. He's fun to watch tho!
By no means is he Mal.Meninga but if he gets up to speed he'll be a welcome addition to SL.'"
He's much like many of the other "big units" that play centre / wing.
Sau at Salford can be a beast and Carney on the wing etc.
If you give them plenty of traffic and turn them round regularly, they lose much of their potency.
Having said that, if the hit a decent ball 15 metres out, they will score all day long.
Leeds pack were well beaten and Watkins had an absolute mare, which Trinity exploited to maximum effect.
A job well done and Headingley does tend to be a tricky place to go and come away with the points.
It's way too early in the season to get carried away, more a case of getting some points on the board.
Leeds have some decent players (including Watkins, who will come good - he's a class player). They look to have bigger issues in their pack and in the halves and although they needed quota spots, why have they allowed Garbutt to go to KR, a poor decision.

Quote SaleSlim="SaleSlim"Few views from a neutral....
1) Wakey are a very good team and a lot of fans on here have been a little bit disingenuous about that. Big, powerful forwards, powerful, fast backs and as much as I hate the scabby little scrote
Brough was very good last night and Tupou is a cracking player. With the size of that pack they shouldn't get bullied down the middle too often. Pretty sure I predicted Wakey top 5 pre-season and I'll stick with that. London was a bit of an aberration but we all have days like that (Salford more than most
).
2) Leeds do have some quality players but I think they'll be up and down this year. Salford blew up against them the other week and I think a few Leeds fans got a bit carried away with where they're at. Mid table for me this year.
3) Can we please start a petition to ban wannabe musicians from all Super League grounds. How Leeds fans cope with that every week, f*ck knows! They're not the only ones of course but if stewards are banning people from bringing bottles of water etc into the ground then they can do us all a favour and confiscate drums and trumpets.

I wish all instruments could somehow be classed as potential weapons and could be outright banned from all sports stadia in the country.
I hate the drum at Wire. Does my sweed in!
But the out of tune trumpets at Leeds, with the drum, are even worse!
https://youtu.be/DI0zJ8ltlXQ
It wouldn’t surprise me if the passive fans, potential fans that the game needs to capture and even union fans who do watch a bit of league would all switch off - even if Leeds had the greatest rugby league side in world history - because of that daft band.
It’s not a good advert for the game, it’s like a prank from an anti-RL brigade who are trying to make the sport look like a joke.

| Hurrell is head and shoulders above most centres in this league. Best centres would have to go between him/Tupou/Percival. He has got errors in his game, but the whole league is flawed with errors, it's getting worse year on year. They need to get the ball to him in space and let him charge, attracts 3/4 defenders quite often. Lolohea is a funny one, his defence is suspect and make a couple of errors himself. However, when Leeds decided to use him, his miss passes set up 3-4 tries alone, definitely suited more to FB than in the halves, nice little chip over the fullback in broken play. As for their halves, there is 0 creativity going on, if your going to spend top dollar like you have this off season, you need a world class half back which for me, will change your team completely.
Wakefield shocked me last night. Wood and Miller didn't stop along with Tupou and Johnstone and they were worthy winners. A bad day at the office for Leeds but full credit to Trinity, will give most teams a run for their money. Now that London result is out of their system, i can see a top 5 finish.

Only in physical size! His handling isn't up to scratch.
