We all know you are buddys with him Nick but come on he struggles to make any sort of impact in games, not good enough imo

Yes I'm mates with him but when my opinion of his game matches that of his coach I think I must be quite a good judge of the game!!!

The only people that matter when it comes to performances are the player and his coaching staff, after last nights game both of those were happy with the way he played so I tend to feel some of you watch a completely different game to most others!

Went in Crown after last nights game and a critic of Rhys's even mentioned that he played well last night barring his one knock on.

I guess everyone needs a scapegoat and this season Rhys is just going to have to accept that he is the one to cop it!

I thought he went OK. Punched a couple of holes in their defence, ran with purpose and made some decent tackles.
Can't see what he did so badly wrong to attract such criticism.

After listening to Morgans aftermatch comments in the HP bar i'm not sure his judgment is all that clever. In fact i'm pretty sure he was at a completely different game to me

I thought Lovegrove was OK in defence and attack. Having said that I think Morgan should have had an out and out prop in the 17 instead of Rhys.

I was supprised when I saw we only had two props, even more supprised when I realised how big every Leeds player from 1 to 17 were I will agree Rhys is not a prop (maybe in ten years time) I was happy with most of what we did last night. I would be more dissapointed if I was a Rhino fan.

i think he knocked on first ball and i did think "oh no" but after that he went well i thought against much bigger opposition too

he needs to find a position and get Morgan to give him a run there though.
