Leeds' defense was solid all night & we didn't (couldn't) make any impression in that first half. Much better in the 2nd, but (yet again) some diabolical kicking & a few brain-farts let us down. Leeds deserve the win, they've been the team to beat all year & we just fell short. Notwithstanding they'll be insuferable for the next 12 months. At least it weren't the cabbage munchers again.
Bowen was a monster & it's playing like that which'll make him missed. The younglings did well too. And couple of our so-called senior players might well be lucky to not have had a 10 minute rest.
Ah well, start it all again in February. Just the internationals to look forward to now.
