Leigh today where outplayed in every dept Fev where Bigger Stronger Faster they played with lots of heart and spirit Leigh on the other hand well to say they where outmuscled would be kind to them Poodles v Pitbulls about sums it up
The French Clot in the middle was useless spoiled the game blowing up again and again for pointless pens he should take up wild boar hunting back in his homeland with his feet and arms tied up pillock

Another case of dire tactics and/or execution. I will no longer listen to anybody who says beswick can play 7, as I predicted, we were flat and lifeless in attack, as you would be with only one natural halfback in the pairing. Sick of seeing us concede the same miss-pass tries vs fev. As has been said before, fev never do anything special to beat us, just simple rugby done well. Ref didn't help, selection and tactics failed us, Rowley gets it right mostly, but he has to stop playing 7 forwards from the start, think its safe to say after countless hidings, it doesn't work

Point proved imo.

A poodle would give a pitbull a bit of a fight more like a chiwawa TBF Coyle would of started at 7 if he wasn't injured

Does defeat today make it impossible to reach the play-offs?

Bob Bes is a great player but like most people who watch know he's never a scrum half we need zip at half back both Fevs halfs walked rings around us it was embarrassing watching what was going on Fevs forwards battered us and Penky was poor we have a guy who has scored 31 tries last season and once again he only got on the field late on bizzare. Out wide we where shocking time and time again Fev broke out wide our defence was diabolical
At the Lisa meeting we where told the players where stronger than last year must say they where totally out muscled by the Fev lads.. It shows you can play alright against a young Wigan outfit play ok against a Swinton outfit but when we come up against a proper team like Fev we have hell of a long way to go and to be honest Paul R will have to come up with a decent scrum half with zip to go with Riddy to get the team moving forward against the better teams in the Championship Bob Bes great player should always be one of the first names on the team sheet but in the right position 9 or 13

If they play like that YES

Much prefer for us to get the poor performances out of the way early season.............Roll on next week v Hunslet Rhino`s.

Hunslet had only 2 players from Leeds in their side today.

Last seasons's 1st v 2nd, should not have been 38-6 !!!
But look at Saints yesterday, 4-40. 1st game....BUT they have replaced Salford as our bogey team.

We've got 13 other league games before we play fev in't league again hopefully we'll have some continuity with Coyle playing at 7. When's Higson back?

Indeed Keinhorst and Hood, should be a good game v the Rhino`s next week.

Well that first half was painful to watch.The two tries they scored in the corner were shocking defending, and the amount of ball we dropped in the middle of the park was ridiculous,i suspect we wont make so many mistakes in a 40 minute spell again this season, unless we have to play at POR again.
As for fev ,i thought they were very good against us again,they're very regimented in what the do against us,especially down the slope.Unfortunately they know how to hold us when its our turn to play down hill.

All in all i think both clubs have strengthened well,but i think Fev are still out in front of us

If thats the case then well done Hunslet

About Easter.


Where would you play him ?


I would put him in as centre to Pownall.
