Raleigh Amor Wilkes outstanding effort Ellis solid 1-17 apart from the tries from kicks great performance bring on the Tigers
PS 7 bulbs out on one light get it sorted Mr Glover its just not good enough
Thought his distribution was a major factor in our go forward, his passses are extremly accurate and his dummy half running always made a good 10, was a bit miffed when he was taken off, but have to say Agar got it right with Wood this time.
Nice problem to have when Aiton is fit again.

| Great result last night we really took it to them. Could have had a fair few more points with good chances bombed in the first half. Great effort from all only slight downside was Fox's defence at times but we won so I'll let him off!

I reckon if we turned in those performances week in, week out, then a top eight IS a possibility. We've improved a hell of a lot to get to this point. The team are understanding each other better (witness the superb backing up last night), the near misses we've had (Warrington and Leeds away to name but 2) and the fact we're only a few points off top eight now. POSSIBILITY I say, not probability. I reckon we are probably on track with Agar's plan and targets.
We're on a roll and all we need is about another dozen games this season!!

| Best performance from Trinity I’ve seen since the Catalans home match. Notwithstanding the shocking tries conceded in the second half, the defence was superb. Two games on the trot now when Trinity have kept the opposition below twenty, no coincidence that both have fished with good victories.
Although I have doubted his constant inclusion in the match day squad, Kyle Wood really swung the game back in Trinity’s favour after it looked like Leeds were getting a roll on. It was vital that he made that break which ultimately set up the Washbrook try. Had Trinity conceded again I doubt they would’ve gone on to win the match. He looked very spritely and seemed a pain to defend against with his probing, almost Burrowesque.
All in all a fantastic night of RL. I thoroughly enjoyed the Monday night game, even before Trinity secured the win. Much better than the Saturday night match experience which in comparison seem to be very flat.

i agree. i thought we were the best side by quite a margin overall, but that the result was in the balance for far too long - but i guess that made it all the sweeter.
sadly the same frailties are there now that were there in the early weeks of the season. our complete and utter inability to defend the kick, and equally (or more tellingly?) to fail to put any pressure on the kicker is inexcusable and nearly cost us a game we were in almost complete control of.
andy raleigh has to be the signing of the season, and for all sykes' faults the lad kicks goals so is worth his place. perhaps he's fullback material, much taller than mathers and quite prepared to stick himself in the mix in any situation including jumping for a high ball under pressure. cockayne won't be a fullback as he'll keep getting out jumped. on balance i think we should wave goodbye to mathers unless he is really affordable....

| Agreed, really enjoyable game last night. Have watched it back and other than the season old issue of defending kicks out wide, it's hard to find a fault with anyone.
Think in Aiton, Ellis and Wood we have 3 good quality and yet different options at Hooker. Amor and Raleigh were immense, Sykes bossed it again, Smith kept Leeds guessing all night, Mathers made lots of yardage with clever return play so really pleased with all of that.
Think Washbrook deserves a mention, goes about his business quietly, but watching the game back his runs off the ball and tackling were first class.

| Superb victory last night and in some senses I feel a shame in that we didn't execute our chances better in the first half. To score 50 past Leeds and current World Club Champions would have been something else. Maybe the electronic scoreboard prediction of Wakefield 60 Leeds 20 was telling us something?
I also wonder if the fact that we didn't fold and came back stronger against Huddersfield in the 2nd half last week helped maintain belief in the squad which saw us through when it was 18-14 last night.
I agree with many on here that Raleigh was man of the match. Can't begrudge Sykes but I often think half backs/acting halves tend to grab the limelight with the media and often the hard work elsewhee is not recognised.
Ryan Hall is arguably the best winger in the world and he showed that again. The frailty of us under the high ball on the wings was really brought to everyones attention last night on national tv. If Millward has anything about him he will use this tactic on Sunday and we have to be ready.
Well done WTW, great result. One of the best performances from our team I've seen in a long time. I look forward to watching it again on the Sky box. - I've already marked it as "keep"

| That was an outstanding performance - so much for our 'too small' pack, who absolutely bossed it up the middle and created a great platform; Andy Raleigh was the stand-out for me - he smashed them to bits in attack and defence, scored one, created another.
I'm not sure I buy this 'we' can't defend kicks - aside from the fact that Sinfield's kicks were pinpoint and Hall is a class act, it wasn't 'we' who didn't defend, it was just Foxy, who seemed to panic when Hall was bearing down on him - made the same mistake twice in one minute to let Hall in for two fairly easy scores. That needs fixing.
A fantastic Monday night Sky spectacle - BV looked stunning, the place was packed and the rugby was top quality; loved it!

| Yep, great attendance. If that game had been played on a Sun afternoon we would have easily smashed
10k.
Great to see BV rocking and outshouting the Rhinos.
Good times to be a Trinity supporter.

You could have played the FA cup final on that pitch even after the game.

Thought our lightweight pack were immense last night, with an excellent shift from Raleigh. It was also nice to see us come home strong at the end instead of folding as we have done in the past.
Still a few key areas where we need to strengthen, but we are not far away. An awesome performance all round

| Excellent result! always nice to stuff Leeds!
Can't help feeling Brian Mc just makes himself and Leeds look even more stupid than we made them look!
Excellent to lead from the start see the lads playing positivly for the full 80.
Well done trin!
