just like to see us score a try from open play

got it

That defence is shocking, you cant blame coaches for that.

Sutcliffe is absolutely terrible in defence. Jams in time and time again and leaves Martin with absolutely no chance. A senior player like Sutcliffe should be helping a youngster, not leaving him out to dry repeatedly.

Edit: sorry I think it was Tindall on that occasion. But in previous games it's been Martin

last tackle oprtion once again p--s poor

That try came from our holding down penalty machine Lane.

Charles has some passing game.

Really need a half who can find a pass and organise a play when we're attacking the line. Had plenty of good field position to be a couple of scores in front but nobody seems to have a clue how to attack the line. We don't have anybody who can just dribble the ball in goal and force repeat sets.
Goal line defence has been good, we've held them out on a few occasions.
Effort is 100% there, it's just the skill that's missing.
What a player Ese'ese is.

Effort there in abundance. But we are a fair few players off a decent team . Lads giving there all . Lot better performance up to now

He has but not at this level, too much pressure, remember he can still play for the academy.

still think professional should be taking both those passes.

Touch judge wants sacking on Martins wing, almost cost us two trys.

ATM definitely green shoots. Long way to go mind

What a difference a coach makes eh? We know we aren’t a great side but all things considered I have to say that was a pleasing first half. Whilst not brilliant we at least look more organised than we have all season.

Yes Leeds aren’t great either but Grix & Cummins for me certainly seem to have managed to have affected some change and positivity in the short time they’ve been in charge.
The performance is the important factor as we are well short of players and quality which needs to be addressed and by all accounts is going to be.

so has Houghton
If you want to criticise then take a look at Smith at half back who hasnt a clue what a last tackle play should be

Its a poor quality Chis but we are seeing some effort.
Tinkering Tony certainly has a lot to answer for
