| Too many knock on's and looked a bit slow at times but they ground out the result and the ref's idea of 10 metres isn't the same as mine.

Write for a few rugby league websites, mainly about the Kingstone Press Championship.
Usually found in Sunderland, sometimes in Sheffield.

| Sheffield played really well, showed us what we shoud be doing more of, playing for position, getting repeat sets & keeping hold of the ball. Spontaneous rugby is all well and good but means loosing ball through silly passes & loose carrys trying to offload, better teams will capitalise on those mistakes. Still today we capitalised on Sheffield's mistakes better than they did on ours and we came away with the win against a very good team that'll be in The Qualifers & may give some SL teams a scare.

| Disipline was poor at times we defended well but fell for a couple off sucker punch plays Best hit up was Gregg McNally on attack knockin Yere flyin on his backside awesome we looked jaded at times but had to work overtime defending All in All a mighty fine win against a good side Well Done to the lads Ref in my opinion was very poor Sheff where constanly well in front of the guy when he was standing 10 mtrs gave some very harsh decisions against Leigh

| Well I thought the Seagulls played very well and I must applaud them ![CLAP eusa_clap.gif](images/smilies//eusa_clap.gif) they troubled us for long periods and played like we do keeping the ball alive when possible,that said the Seagulls scored 12 points while we were a man down with McNally being sin binned,but we dropped a fair bit of ball in difficult conditions , a biting cold wind and drizzle for most of the game.For me Ryan Brierley was MoM,,but I feel we missed Penky but Bob B had a good game as well I think the Seagulls are a well drilled side and 3rd spot in the Comp is not beyond them.
Having said this we will have to improve to beat Salford next week ,our attack looked good as always but our defence looks a bit brittle at times, still unbeaten and a decent following of Leythers.

| This game was always going to be a tough encounter with the bookies giving Sheffield just 12 points start.
So it proved and Greg McNally would be the first to admit that his daft sin binning for kicking the ball away to delay the 20m restart on 53 minutes was plain daft and could easily have cost us the game. When we were back to 13 from 63 minutes our power, skill and fitness shone through and the game, in my view, was never in doubt.
Sheffield were stood in our line at the play the ball all afternoon and the numpty with the whistle blew for just two penalties for this offence - unbelievably both against Leigh. I was just glad that he didn't have to deal with any serious foul play otherwise things could have completely boiled over. The guy was clearly out of his depth.
A special mention for Bob Beswick - a performance above and beyond the call of duty today. He did the full 80 and controlled and directed throughout. With Lewis Foster on the bench the game was too delicately poised to take the risk. Lewis's time will come to show us what he can do but Paul made the right call by leaving Bob on, in these difficult circumstances.
I have never previously questioned Paul's decision making and I am a big fan of his but Gareth Hock is clearly not fit and has struggled in both of his appearances to date. I assume there must be a good reason why Ollie Wilkes and Tom Spencer, both looking fully fit and sharp, played a major part in the reserves versus Keighley on Thursday. Noting Penky's excellent recent form we can only presume he is injured otherwise he would have been playing in today's vitally important win.

| We were starting to get on top of them when McNally got sin binned, which gave them the lift they needed.
Thought our forwards were good, and made yards in every tackle, but the passing in the backs was poor. If we'd kept it simple, we'd have probably scored a few tries like Emmitt's because our front rowers were more powerful than Sheffield's. Would need to play much much better next week, or Salford will give us a good hiding.

Disagree with that..The Worky game didn't go as planned with the departure of Fui..And Gareth did a brilliant job..

And injury to Platt meant he played a longer stint in first half than probably planned today. That said, I would bring Wilkes in for Salford game. Spencer as well.
