Best side won tonight. Scoreline is probably about right too. You can't just throw the ball around without putting the graft in. Decent defensive effort but just so hard to watch. Hopefully dry weather will help us a bit.

 St Helens Tame The Rhinos To Win At HeadingleyDespite home advantage, the Leeds Rhinos were given a four-point start on the handicap coupon as they took on the reigning Champions St Helens at Headingley Stadium in the sole Friday evening game in Super League XXIX. Saints already had second place and knew that a win in excess of twenty-two points would see them above arch-rivals Wigan Warriors into top spot, the Rhinos knew that a win would lift them to second spot in the table overnight. Saints were without the suspended Mark Percival after last week’s sending off and lost Tommy Makinson in the warm-up while Leeds had ex-Saint James Bentley back in their side after his suspension. This was the first of two encounters between the two sides in two weeks. READ MORE ON THIS STORY... |

Hope no one blames the ref. We're still 12 months away from competing but miles better than last year.

Getting Lisone and Fus back will make a huge difference, Fus in particular will give us that ability to finish those half chances that Roberts will never be able to.

Yeah we’re better than last year but still a way off the top sides like saints and Wigan. We lack power in the pack off the bench and have only one good winger available at the moment.
Can’t see us getting to the GF or winning anything this year tbh. We just look slightly short and we’re too loose with the ball

We weren't miles off there, a couple of key decisions go the other way and the scoreline could have been reversed.

Yeah I was just thinking we aren’t miles away. We looked comfortably the better side for fire half an hour, then we seemed to resort to one out carries and the dreaded errors kicked in.
Soon as we got loose we got punished, credit to Saints they deserved the win,

Play the second half like we did the first and that could be a very different score. Mistakes against good teams will get punished, we must stop making them.

Uncharacteristic read from O'Connor made Mbye look a lot better than he is.
Leeds lacked a bit of composure in the second half - we had position and opportunities but a little panic crept in that we've not had so far this season.
Roberts took his try well, but in the second half didn't seem to want to back himself in a couple of half-chances. Wasn't his fault the ball was blatantly stolen. I guess these things can go against you when you don't have momentum.
Not sure how Matautia stays on the field after taking Bentley off the ball.

I’ll be surprised if Frawley isn’t out of the team by the halfway point in the season.

Fwiw-Thought the Matautia hit was pretty brilliant! Fraction late, so penalty sufficed. Nothing more.
Lack of pace in the team did stand out…..

Frawley made an error but other than that was ok.
We basically got beat by a better side in the night, they nullified our threat in the second half snd their defence kept them in it in the first.
First half was electric and i think any itger team bar maybe Wigan we go in with s comfortable lead.
2 things changed that game imo. Bell coming on when oledski went off
Ackers going off, that read for Mbye’s try by oconner was atrocious but he’s still learning

Talking of getting rid of players after 5 games is way premature. Even Sinfield put a few out on the full in his time at Leeds, and wasn't much of a threat with the ball either.
Who is available? Knee-jerker's favourite Brad Dwyer? Sensational Sutcliffe?
Frawley reminds me of Dunneman in some respects, although very much early days. He's no world beater but moves the team around, and has more defensive heart than Sezer and Austin put together.

If we can put together this week's 1st half against saints & last weeks 2nd half against Leigh we'd look one heck of a team. For me we didn't turn our pressure into points tonight where as saints did that was the only difference
Lachie Miller is looking more electric for us each week can't wait to see him in summer on some dry tracks.
If we get Momirovski & Lisone back next week and can take our chances I'd back us to dump Saints out of cup.

Thought it was a very high standard game. Credit to Saints for hanging tough when we were stretching them all over the place in the first half. I'm not normally one to bag the coach but I thought his selection of Edgell on the bench was big factor in the loss. As the game went on we needed a bit more impact off the bench and we were never going to get that with a teenage full back. Very odd. Let's see what we can learn from this next week.

Edgell was meant to be 18th man, Ruan was ill, so Donno was meant to be 17th. Croft wasn’t 100% (think there's been illness through the group) so we needed cover in the backs. |

Agree with all that. Plus points: Miller was great although his kick off out on the full killed us. Oledski looks the best prop in SL. Holroyd is getting back to match fitness and Sangare was solid especially in first stint.
Very frustrating we did so well to get into control of the game and then three it away with errors; but there’s next week. |

Dont agree it was a big factor for the loss but it did seem a strange decision to have Edgell as sub. |

Look hot for the first half an hour, the rest was crap.
I really don’t get the love for Oledzki, just a big pudding. That game was crying out for an enforcer, and unfortunately only Bentley tries to be one.

Ah, thanks for the clarification. With any luck we'll actually have four true props in the 17 next week. Will do wonders for us. |
