Quote: christie "I thought that the first half was our worst performance since we got back in SL. Even in the dark days of 2012 at least the players appeared to be trying, today too many of them had a day off. Just as well the Rhinos stopped playing after 50 minutes and we got some respectability back to the scoreline.'"
As superior as Leeds clearly were, you could see we were lethargic from the off. Hopeless one-up trundling attacks, missed tackles and failure to bend backs all over the show. How do professional players in one of only two professional comps on the planet not know how to tackle effectively? I'm afraid posting 30 points once the contest is over doesn't count, and this was over within the first half hour. Truly shocking.
