Both. Our lack of composure (and general crapness) throughout most of the game lost us a point; but our composure and dogged determination towards the end gained a point.

And let's not forget that we scored more tries than them. The scoreboard doesn't care whether you score those points at the beginning or end. If only we had a kicker. (Sam did us right at the final moment though.)

I'm hurting, thought we had it sewn up. Feels like a loss so I'd say a point gained for you. That said, 1m out you could have snook it at the end.

Silly penalties let you back in. Tomkins is not a full back, play him at stand off where he will shine.

Point gained - we were totally out of it and Leeds should have rubber stamped it well before the 70 minute mark. Sam's try for me screamed out that we need him at 6 in the future; Finch just isn't totally ready yet and McIllorum is still learning.

6 Sam, 7 Finch and 9 Tommy for me next week.

Pat would of been massive tonight, he would of caught the bombs and kicked the goals. That would of swung the scoreboard big style. We got away with crapness in a few areas tonight though.

Finch's pass to Sam at the end was quality. I'd go with that lineup next week too, with McIlorum coming off the bench. Sam is wasted at FB.

Thought Joel did ok at Centre too. I'd keep him there if possible.

He's a target for the kickers. None of the wingers that have played this season are really a good target for the halves when it comes to kicking - just not tall enough and just don't have the leap Pat does. He would've been huge tonight and he's going to be in future. But we all knew that.

We started well with McIllorum on, when he went of we fell apart and back on we stage a comeback. Coincidence?

Just that touch of class from Tomkins to dink it over the defender is something we don't get to see much of him doing at fullback. Sure, he's got a lot of room playing there - but what he is best at is making room and then attacking it. Other clubs have him sussed at FB now, it's time to get him back to five-eighth and do what he does best, which is create problems and torment defences.

clarkey 'i don't know eddie wigan did..'

eddie 'they've been out played phil'

I found this funny, like eddie had finally had enough of Clarkey and just cut him off.

I don't disagree. But the fact that we need Sam at 6 overbears that in my opinion. Sam at 6 with Tommy at 9 and Micky coming off the bench would be far more effective than Sam being marked out of games at 1 I reckon. Others, including yourself, will probably disagree but that's my view.

We would of struggled against most teams tonight. Shambolic at times but we sneaked out with a point somehow.

a point gained which hopefully will not disguise a very poor performance for 65 minutes, we have look totaly dissorganised in the last 2 games with finch at stand-off, whether he is ready or not he seems to have unsettled the rhythm of the team. some of his passing again tonight was attrocious as was his kicking game. hopefully he will settle into the team with time,same goes for lima.

icon_lol.gif and plank of the year award goes to..... Odemwigie! eusa_clap.gif

Once you get over the exitement of pinching a draw, reality will maybe click in tomorrow.

We ripped you to pieces.... had 4 tries disallowed....totally bossed the game for 70 mins before getting mugged in the last 10.

We didn't lose a point, we threw 2 away, but showed the teamspirit, ability and class that has been the bedrock of our team over the last 8 years or so.

You gained a point. We gained so much more from this game.

Crackin' try from junior though. If your coach ever moves him to 6 your attack will improve no end icon_wink.gif
