Really good 1st half. Sezer running on to the ball at speed looked a different player. Walker had a top game too, well done.
Downside was Newman's injury, he looked to be holding his hamstring as he went to ground. Wouldn't be surprised if we have Smith, Leeming and Fuzzy banned next week.

Missed the first half with other commitments which is a shame as it sounds like we looked good to watch also looks like scoreline doesn't reflect our dominace in the game. A wins a win especially in the early rounds of the season. I'm hoping Leeming's yellow card is sufficient as for me he hits the shoulder first and does not make direct contact with the head but won't hold my breath to see if he gets a ban. What was Fusitu'a shoulder charge like as I haven't seen it back yet? Hopefully this win kick starts our season. MOT

So potentially missing next week are leeming fuzzy cam smith and Newman. Potentially Austin if he fails his head assessment. First half looked good, second switched off. Wasn’t blown away by Fusi TBH only first game but few bad reads in D but can’t remember if we were down to 12 then? Just seemed pretty pedestrian. Maybe being harsh, will see with a few more games. Thought Walker had a good game

We might we might not, nobody thought wed be 30 nil up at half time tonight.

Was it a perfect performance far from it but there were a lot of positives to take from that, if you want to focus on thr negatives after a good with n at s ground we rarely play well at that’s up to you

Frustrating second half, but an improvement overall on the last 2 weeks.

If we have players banned again next week for minor indiscretion’s then i’m out for next week.

We probably will have players banned and rightly so. Repeated dumb decisions like some of the stuff we saw from some Leeds players in the second half there is really going to cost us. They simply have to stop committing fouls that lead to bans.

Leeds fans should be complaining about the players being so dumb rather than bursting into tears about the unfairness of it all.

I'm not sure how many bans it's going to take until we clean up some poor tackling technique...

Talk about a game of two halves . First half our half backs used the ball really well , and Walker had a cracking first half . His passing and link up play were excellent and we looked so much quicker moving the ball and it paid dividends.
Second half was dire - discipline awful - we could have 3 men suspended for next week . Fuzzy late hit was a minimum yellow , but lets be honest Kendall gave us every 50 / 50 decision tonight - he was bloody awful .
Don`t players realise that attacking the head and off the ball hits will result in them missing games .
Our pack just can`t do 80 minutes - Fafita broke more tackles in one run than our pack broke in the whole of the game. We cannot compete with the top 4 teams with these forwards , and if Newman is out , then our backs are toothless.

If you want to deliberately ignore the positives I highlighted earlier in the thread that's up to you too

Might aswell not bother for the rest of the season then eh.
