We would have won both of those games last year with Matty in the team. Tommy's poor kicking and lack of organisation will cost us in close games.'"
You do realise we lost games with Smith in the team as well last year? May just be me but I think I've seen more entertainment in general play these last half dozen games than we did for the majority of last season. You mention poor kicking but his place kicking was mostly abysmal last year (how many times did we groan at when the kicks went straight down the throat of the opposition full back)? His conversions are no better than Escare's, however he can knock over a decent drop goal.
I don't just want one point wins, with some more players back lets get back to playing good attacking rugby with options all over the field (moving away from the five years old planned move).

With regards to Smith last night it was a typical Smith performance and I wouldn't expect much more from him. What on earth was Wilkin doing kicking on 2nd tackle? Time he called it a day, he's pants!!'"
Get yourself over to Redvee. After a couple of weeks of solidification the meltdown is once again in full swing - hilarious!

| I dont know what you guys are complaining about, I dont think your halves are why you lost that game
Williams is looking very good, I thought his tries were a bit soft by us, but his general play has definately improved, I dont know why some of our fans were giving him stick, I dont think he his the Lee Briers (or S Tomkins for that matter) type who constantly winds up opposition fans and wines at the ref
If he wants to be number 6 for england though he still needs to do more outside the opposition 40, as Widdop has started well this year
Overall good game I thought, just what you want from Leeds Wigan, some skill on show and plenty of aggression and (from my point of view) Leeds taking the 2 points
Nearly crashed my car when heard Wanes interview, saying we were the better team, fair play to him

It's probably in the script IL has given him. He probably wanted to say Ferres is a dirty bar steward and should have been sent off but IL doesn't want to pay the fine.
