One or two bad refereeing decisions and players making one or two bad calls didn't help.'"
Apart from the ref's calls I felt with a bit more composure at the right time the game was ours for the taking. Twice I feel, we should have popped a drop goal over, instead we went for glory and one effort led to the length of the field Leeds try.
That said, a great game and I applaud all who played. We can compete with the best - we're just a little short of something somewhere. When we get it we will games like this.

Brains. Although not the best, perhaps this is what Sykes offers. Someone who can read the game and show a bit of intelligence.

| The ref did absolutely nothing for us tonight. But Wakey played their hearts out and it was a good game to watch. Playing Danny out of position has done us no favours and why the hell they went for 2 instead of running the ball I just can't imagine, I think agar had a brain fart.

| Great performance tonight, I didnt think Collis got enough ball tonight and we know how good he is. Aiton had a great game.

I don't think Collis was fit. He wasn't his usual evasive self. Anyhow Agar went for a big side to the detriment of the wide areas so he was never going to see much of the ball.

| Quote: Khlav Kalash "Terrible game management lost Trinity that match. Going for two instead of going for a try, last tackle kick going straight into Bishops hands for the breakaway try, would've been more effective taking the tackle. Not going for a one pointer when 12-6 up.
I would like to see Ablett's match winner again as I'm sure he pulled Smith back with out the ball before going on to ground it.'"
missing the kick for two points was that bad of decision because at the time there wasn't much between the two sides, this only becomes apparent at the back end of the game when it was tight score line.
the one pointer when we was 12-6 up would of been a nose in front but there was more time to go and would of not been the last score.
for me when Sinfield dropped their goal to them one point up I was asking for a short high kick off to try and get the ball back but instead, as we had them on the rack but it was kicked out on the full and put our selves under the cosh.
you can go back to the first Leeds try and it was well forward

| So, so fickle. No surprise. "Together We Are Stronger" when it suits.
We worked hard, and didn't quite get what we deserved for the effort. Losing by 9 points over two games against the Champions is something we can take many positives from and improve on.

| Going for the two points at the time we did was the correct call for me....we'd soaked up a lot of pressure and defended really well.....it was a chance to settle things down and go 8 points ahead.....
Smith's failure to convert a simple kick he would probably nail 99 times out of every 100 ultimately cost us the game in the end......with those 2 points on the board Mariano scores inside the last ten minutes and we go 7 points clear....
Leeds dropped a goal with 16 minutes left on the clock.....it's called taking points and getting them on the board in a tight game.....
100% right decision for me and that miss cost us the game.....great effort from the lads though.....we miss Sykes so bad it's untrue.....very underated player and the perfect compliment to Tim Smith......was a huge blow losing Kirmond minutes before the game too....
Certainly two points dropped tonight I feel.....Leeds will be delighted with the 2 points in a game we should have won.....Sinfield also played his part and came through with vital game time and more than played his part with his boot....

so the score would of been 8-6 and you think that we would of gone on to win comfortably from there, yes the kick was the right thing to go for but to call this a the reason for the lose I'd ask you to think that one again. you could call many others. if Kirmond had played it could of been different again see what I mean

Definitely missing that. Leeds could play with no fullback safe in the knowledge that if Trinity did make a break they could recover. Trinity are extremely vulnerable to broken field running due to the lack of pace in the side.

Sorry don't agree what cost us the game was 2 individual error's Tim Smiths grubber kick and Lee Smiths out on the full at kick off.Both these led to 12 points to Leeds and they cost us the game.
Having said that a good team effort by the Wakey boys.

| That Ablett try that got Leeds back in front late on was an absolute joke by the way......he was in front of Sinfield when he kicked it for starters.....so offside.....then he tackled Tim Smith round the neck and pushed him out of the way.....the grounding looked dubious too......would have 100% been disallowed with a video ref there for me....
I still think Lee Smith's missed penalty was a crucial factor in the end though...

| Yes, we played well on the whole tonight. Fantastic intensity at times. We had some bad luck; you cannot legislate for the Jones-Bishop try. Error count right down but sadly again, a couple of bloopers cost us, though in that heat I don't think you can be too harsh. A fantastic effort, a good match and a great atmosphere. My only real gripe is why Lynne on the bench when Kirmond had to pull out? I couldn't see the point in that pre match and nor, would it seem, did Agar during it, as he never came on. An extra foward to spell and who knows in a game of such fine margins.

| Effort tonight was outstanding. Execution was an improvement on last week. However... once again we manage to concede after a last tackle kick on the opposition line. Once again, L. Smith somehow manages to kick dead from kick off (why not go for the sideline when we are losing?!). Mathers has a brainfart and knocks the ball dead with no-one within 10 metres of him. Take the two in teh first half when we're 20 metres out... that's just negative in my eyes.
Thaler:
- gives intentional knockdown in Leed's favour after wakey player commits to tackle and Leeds passer throws ball against him - gives Leeds the decision when it happens the other way around, also.
- Blatant shoulder charge before one of Leed's tries.
Can't blame him for the aforementioned brain farts though.
