The Broughton no try did come off the back of a scrum that should have gone to Leeds though IIRC, so.

Wardle and ferres at the moment are so exiting to watch. Brough had a better game tonight. Hopefully Anderson won't be too harsh on Tai and he gets a run out next game, he's been playing well just made a few shockers tonight. Nice win to carry on our Headingley run and even though they were some 50/50 decisions (both ways) I still think we deserved to get 3 points.

3 points

Always thought it was 2, agree it was a tough game, lots of handling errors and some hot and cold plays from the boys.

Brough's 40/20 kicking and spot kicks were excellent plus the take near the end.

Taai almost cost us the game, certainly gave Leeds the momentum back. Definite push by Briscoe so right decision, still not convinced he got the ball down anyway.

I thought the Bailey try was dubious as Grix looked to have both arms under the ball, but maybe got it with benefit of the doubt.

2 wins from 3 really tough games against 3 top teams is a good return, but we need to improve in a number of areas.

According to the Leeds board they were robbed

What a shock! We never beat them fair and square always something up

spielberg would have been proud of that climax. nice to be on the right side of it, now no slip ups against lesser opposition. c o y g

Slight exaggeration there.

2 Threads entitled 'Robbed' both consist of 7 post each, contributed to by 10 different posters, 1 of which is clearly not a Leeds follower.

Hardly indicative of the 'Leeds Board'.

I know that but you could see Ganson clearly looked at Bentham when they were replaying the bit where it was doubtful whether Bailey got the ball grounded as Grix had both arms under the ball. He shrugged his shoulders and ha a face of I'm not sure.

The Bailey try shouldn't have stood because it was a double movement.

Ryan Bailey isn't a log, he hasn't got a spherical cross-section. Nor does Headingly have a significant slope. The human body doesn't roll unless a) it's going downhill or b ) some force is imparted on it. That was about as clear a case of "subsequent movement to promote the ball over the line" as you will see. It's strange that referees can be so pedantic about obstruction but yet can't understand simple rules of dynamics.

I thought we battled hard.. and played a decent 80 minutes. Along with Leeds we was far from our best but we still got the points and any contrvarsal desision or technically correct but unfair call doesn't mean we didn't deserve it.

Danny Broughs kicking was pretty good all game. He made one attacking kick with about 2-3 minutes to go which made cringe.

Our Forwards competed well. Johnson should have yet again kept his starting spot for next week. He took some stick with some crunching 3 man tackling.

Wood is constantly improving and always looking to attack the line or open a gap.

Ta'ai made some silly errors but probably down to being abit too eager so it's hard to critisize. Anderson made the right choice to take him off.

Overall.. I'm a happy fan.

Drop goals.

Why, when we were 12 points ahead and attacking their line, didn't Danny drop a goal like he did against Wigan? We would have got the ball back and started attacking.

Why, with 1 minute to go when we were attacking, didn't Danny drop a goal? We would have got the ball back for the last set.

Another question for the TV viewers. Why did the decision on that last play take so long when there was a clear obstruction on Danny? The TJ said so immediately? My only conclusion is that Mr S wanted to know if we had infringed earlier so that a penalty could be awarded.

Prior to the Saints match, I said that I would be happy with 4 points from the next 3 games - expecting 2 from that game! I'm happy!!

In theory, the only remaining challenges are Saints, Wire, & Cas. [I did say 'in theory'!]

I like Wood and Bruno on the right. Very solid and Kyle is picking up and taking on the line more, haven't seen him do much with the boot yet though. Think we need to stick with this combo.

Wardle is a beast, just needs to get it right if he's flying out of the line. Amazing he is only 22 and smashing second rowers for fun.

Larne is having an exceptional year, show me a player who runs harder than this lad, 100% determination, I don't think he sees anything but the try line, so direct.

I like Kylie at Leeds but his off the ball smashes last night were properly dodgy, no idea how he got away with those.

Great 4 points in last 2 games we just need to keep hold of the ball, complete, and force some repeat sets and we can push on!

I'm glad we didn't take the 1 point with a few minutes left, short kick offs certainly aren't a strong part of our game! Grubber in goal would have sufficed.

As it was a two point game leeds needed a try to win so kicking a drop goal would not have made much difference.
We are also very poor at short kick offs.
