You could tell in the first five minutes we weren't going to win.
Leeds won the match in the first 20 minutes by sticking hold of the ball and making us tackle. This tired us out - couple this with being by then 2 or 3 scores behind, then it's just too much to do.
The trouble is though, is that we just don't seem have the ability to fight back, for some reason. When we're behind, that's where we stay, possibly because our players try to be fancy instead of simply knuckling down. Hock, for instance, threw away a good four sets of possession tonight, needlessly - I could happily strangle him.
