I don't like to be critical of under 16s players but I did think that the error rate, particularly from Rovers, meant that the game wasnt as high standard as I expected.
Thought that Leeds were big, physical and well drilled. Superbly led around the park by the impressive Sinfield.
Couple of worrying looking injuries. Hope that your 7 who was led from the field isn't as bad as looked.
Cant disagree with you mate. The 2nd half especially was a horror show in terms of handling from both teams. I know the Leeds staff arent happy with the performance. Theres some decent tries scored though but thats worst weve played at 16s/17s this year by a distance.
Thought our big number 11 Jack Johnson went very well tonight and was our best, Lloyd McEwan-Peters in the centre looked classy at times tonight and scored a beauty at the end. We just cant keep 2 halves on the field and ended up losing both tonight to injury.
Disappointing performance and plenty to work on but thats junior rugby. Both teams clearly capable of better. If you cant hold the ball you make life hard for yourselves.
