It was a master coaching class from Chester. Move the ball wide and early to keep away from the Leeds pack and attack the Leeds right side of Defence. That Leeds defence with Watkins, Smith etc were dreadful.

We were well beat in every aspect last night, we never turned up, looked like we had never played together before, unlike wakefield who looked like everyone new what they were doing and were they needed to be.
Lots of work yo do, think Furner as stuck to pretty much the same lineup for first 5 games, needs to swing the axe now some woeful performances last night and some players given far too many chance over a few seasons.

He’s maturing fast is Chester. A few years ago he would have pin pointed the last 10 minutes as a huge let down but last night he barely mentioned it. I’m sure he will in training but was happy to let the lads enjoy the moment. It’s the hardest trick a coach has to learn, the ability to say nowt.

Tbf on Watkins Tupou did that last week to the Catalan centre and many others in recent seasons. Sure this was special but not unknown.

Why people rave about Hurrell is beyond me when the mini beast is head and shoulders above him.

Exactly, the foe list is a beautiful thing use it!

I thought Hurrell looked like he deserved a reputation tbh, Leeds just weren't able to take advantage of his effort last night.
He was through our line in contact every carry virtually, he's gonna be one of their positives this season.

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.

Oh and Wakey's away kit is very nice. Coupled with the home one I reckon they're definitely the smartest outfit this year.

I didn't, he was blowing, he was clumsy, he made errors - he's an OK player but his reputation over here seems to be superstar son no he didn't look anything like his reputation - this may not be his fault as the media have bummed him to daeth but there you go.

As for getting through our line, when exactly, you could say Lyne did the same in fact he did better.

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.
