If Saints were unhappy with the Asiata tackles they forgot to tell Bell.
Nothing in either of those sort of tackles.
Smith had a terrible game but has in the past been the only player with a brain.
Yes Bentley came out of the line to put pressure on Lomax and it didn`t work that time.
But he put pressure on him several times before that and completely put Lomax off his game.
Halves once again not controlling the game and if in doubt we give it to MacDonald.
O`Connor poor and Johnson only slightly better.
Unfortunately Tomkins Mark 2 was the difference.
Playing a team after a semi final loss was a good opportunity for us to bag the 2 points but it took us 15 minutes to wake up.
Salford and KR deserve to be in the playoffs ahead of us.

2 weeks to prepare against a depleted Saints side and we get beat. Deary deary me… this is just not acceptable. Absolutely fed up of it

That’s sport and especially this year it’s unpredictable

All the we should have won this and that game scenario is not true , we have not won them because we are not good enough or clever enough , not because we have been unlucky

Just to add, i was never in the give Austin what he wants camp and im even less in it now

If it’s possible to replace him and Sezer id be doing it, you know me im not doom and gloom but I do think we need to sort the halfback situation out

Yet we’ve hammered the league leaders, battered Wigan and Warrington beaten Saints at home and lost to the bottom 2 we aren’t that predictable

Christopher, we often see different sides of the same coin and I respect your view. How do you see this Leeds team, the coaching staff and the prospects for the next year or two?

As you know, I’m concerned that we are not making enough progress quickly enough, we seem to be either accepting of mediocrity, or there isn’t enough drive to make the changes that could lead to an improvement in fortunes.

How do you see the current position (league and progress) and how do you assess the prospects for the next two years?

Depends on recruitment and if the younger players kick on more, we won’t move forward unless we get at least one consistent decent halfback
