| The problem today was tackling, or lack of it when they were in our 20. If it had been better, it was definatly a game Keighley could have won. Halifax were not that great ethier.

| I thought today's performance at Halifax was the best of the season. The organisation, spirit and commitmrent was great. Ok, just switched off slightly a couple of times for two of their tries. But this gives real confidence that Cougars will pick up a fair few wins this year - starting with Swinton on Saturday. With just a bit more luck at Halifax today it could have been the biggest shock win of the season so far in this league. Congratulations to Marchy and the players. Nice to see ex Halifax players get the tries. Whitey just starting to hint at what he could do for Cougars this season when the grounds dry up a bit. Not many will get a bonus point loss at Halifax this year, never mind a win.

| I couldn't get to todays game due to family commitments , but , credit where it is due.
Sounds like a 100% better game than previous ones this season thus far.
Well done cougars and Paul March, lets give Swinton a good hammering next week and try
to get the season back on trask.

| I have never been to a game we have lost before and been so pleased with out performance. Not a bad player in our team. Worth a mention were White and March but bloody hell, Barnett had his best game yet. His defence was 200 % . Massive credit and also Danny J did ok as Full back.

| I thought the team played ok. The second try was a cracker. We gave them 3 tries through extremely lazy tackling technique. Barnett played really well, made some excellent reads in defence that broke up promising Fax moves. Personally I think Danny Jones looks a bit lost at full back defensively although in attack it gave the team more play making options and the opportunity to have an extra prop in at 13.

| My concern is our No7. He dosnt have a strong enough boot to turn defenders and put them on the back foot. Most of his kicks go to hand or just meaningless grubbers into touch. On Sunday we were turned often and on a few occasions forced to drop out.

Not sure if we were watching the same game but I seem to remember him getting a 40-20 and putting some bombs up as well as some grabbers into touch. Personaly I'd say leatherbarrows kicking and is his strongest point from what I've seen this season. We also scored off a Danny jones kick, so we have options with the boot too.

| Your right about the 40/20 and a few bombs, but 1 40/20 and a few bombs in a game will certainly not win it for you. You need to force drop outs, make the opposition start there tackle count from in there 10 meters. With better kick chaces and forcing errors off these kicks will win you games. Also he needs to draw a man more to take defenders out of the game instead of just been a pair of hands in the line.

I think leatherbarrow is showing some great skill on the pitch tbh, at Batley he forced several drop outs and he nearly always varies his kick of which has caught teams off guard forcing the errors.
He is a talent and we will be extremely lucky not to lose him to a promising championship club with the possibility of promotion or to a superleague club with a view to improving his talents further to take over from an old hand.
I definitely don't see the need to fret over his play in any way, if I was to pass comment at all it would be that he could do with drawing the man a little closer to the ball before offloading but that may be called nitpicking

Agree in a way, but it's the old saying that a kick is only as good as the chase. It's evident our weakest link thus far is the defensive effort.
