We already have one in Sutcliffe tbf, he's been on the money whenever he's taken the duties this year.

He is, but seems to be injured a bit too much to get going.

If its cap, they need to satly so, can't justify picking some of these players in front of those who played for the reserves today.

Agree. Oh well home for an evening Bar b q

Smith team selection was just p15s poor today even with the lack of options we’d have been better served playong some of the young lads today. Staveley and Balmforth if they are part of the future. Instead he goes with players that have simply not been good enough most of not all season.

There was very little team performance and most that are leaving seemed to just be playing their own game.

Whether the play offs were or are gone the level of performance should still remain but today same as last week they’ve clocked off and once again dished up an awful performance and this week very little effort with it.

Injuries happen in a contact sport….been a very good signing but I may be in the minority and not in the cuddle crew.

Unfortunately, I think it's a waiting game, have to hope we start producing youngsters good enough for SL, next season might be slightly better, but we won't be challenging, looking at our out and incomings.

Do the fans have that patience though?

Just watched the Leeds prop 2nd and 3rd try on Twitter, the efforts from Savilo and Lane for the 2nd and Sataes and Shauls for the last are awful.

The first try in the 2md half isn't pretty viewing either, too many to name on that one.

I agree on waiting game,Smith has has to sort out the crap show left by Radford,last and Hodgson and Pearson does take some of thae blame as well but so does Clark…Smith has made some decisions that may baffle us but we don’t know what goes on behind the scenes..as for money for players..we had a lot toied up in salary’s pn Radders mates and the have now been got rid of…let’s wait and see what Smiths team is next season before we judge him.

Barring a 5 minute period in the 2nd half our defensive intensity was like the start of the season again. No line speed, just standing off, no bite to the contact, struggling to put players down, just not at the level it needed to be.
Again, like last week, we had enough ball to win the game but our attacking shape seems to have vanished of late.
