| An emotional and memorable night. The club, the team and the fans (including the Leigh fans who were magnificent) did Rob proud.
There were some standout performances but a special shout out to Frawley, who not only had his best game for Leeds, but was constantly talking to McCormack and Edgell outside him.
Finally, absolutely love Leigh's style of play, probably the most entertaining team I've see for a long time,

| After becoming disillusioned with the professional game as a whole lately, last night rekindled my love for it again.
Absolutely fantastic tribute to a Leeds great, well done to all involved, especially GH who gets hammered on a daily basis. No other club could do it like that.
As for Croft………
Just wow

| Just something specifically game related, I’m really desperate to see Corey Johnson get more game time. I like the look of him coming out of DH. It would be a shame to lose him.

| Im not sure about Corey Johnson, he seems to make a few defensive mistakes in and around the ruck.
Having said that I don’t think there was a poor performance from any player last night, which is the first time this year we've been able to say that.
We still only managed 6 PTB’s in their 20m though compared with their 32

Speaking of defensive mistakes, on at least 3 occasions O’Connor shot out of the line and missed the tackle. It could have been a ploy to force them back down the inside, but against the top sides it could be exploited.

His defence is too poor at this level he missed an easy tackle that lead to a try after he had been on the field line 10 minUtes so cannot blame fatigue. Players make mistakes and miss tackles but that miss was powder puff attempt, Lee Jackson esq.

My impression at the game was that Leigh won the forward battle, but we at least had a proper go at them. Two big props and a second row would transform us. Some have said the shackles were off, but I would argue that they were on for the first time in a long time. The result was less sucidal miracle plays and far fewer errors. This allowed Croft ( who has been outstanding all year) more opportunity to display his talent. Magnificent and unforgettable occasion. The challenge for the club is to create more of these atmospheres from a position of sucess rather than tragedy.

| By the shackles being off I meant that they played to a more natural style suited go their abilities and strengths, rather than being shoehorned into a style they were unable to make work. I commented at the game that there were far, far fewer miracle passes, and hence fewer errors, as the style we played didn't cause frustration - an example being the difference in Mik from Hull to last night.

Oledski stats at hull. 32 tackles 18 hit ups for 199m. Shocking stats. People see what they want to see
Last night, T 34 carries 15 130 meters

With the ball he looks a natural and fluent 9. Something we’ve not had for a while. I agree his defence needs work. Until he gets decent game time at this level, we’ll never know.
It doesn’t surprise me you being overly critical of him, you’ve expressed negativity about him on here on countless occasions.

Agreed. Looks sharp with the ball. He was involved in the miss on ipape but that looked as much a tired effort from mcdonell to me.

| Agree with all thats been said, Frawley looked way better too, probably his best game to date IMO. like the look of eseh, real shame we didn't get him, leeds fan too. amazing occasion and definitely a performance to match, new coach can come in and challenge now, just need some consistency in the team now we've seen they can do it, youngsters looked good too, Ned Mc is one to watch!

Agreed, just because Mik isn’t smacking people all over the shop some think he’s not effective. He’s very good, and has carried our pack for years.

Thats because people like you keep bigging him up into something he’s not. He gets plenty of game time and shows very little, and I’m not the only one who just isn’t getting it, i just don’t see what you are seeing in him,

| Last night was an example of why I love the his game and why I love this club.
There were loads of different clubs fans around all there to pay respects to Rob and his amazing family.
Leigh were absolutely brilliant too, that flag they brought was the icing on an incredible supporting performance from them.
I have been critical of Leeds recently but since Robs far too early passing they have got every step correct. The respect shown and the ability to put on such a great tribute at such a time as this can only be applauded and appreciated.

| I’d just echo the entire nights tribute.
Seeing x80 former players come back for Rob shows what we as a club have forgotten.
Listening to Buderus talking about his time here was also amazing to hear and is the level we need to get back to. Well worth a listen.
The respect and love shown by everyone in the ground was incredibly moving, reduced me to tears on multiple occasions and the Geoff Burrow interview- wow, I was in floods.
Team wise - we were levels above where we found ourselves at Hull. A coherent game plan and the obvious defensive efforts we getting back to where we need to be. Plenty of positives to build off from and hopefully a quick appointment of a head coach can at least see us reach the playoffs.
Still missing a general to guide the team, why we didn’t kick the ball dead towards the end of the game to run down the clock instead poor speculators is a mystery and we got battered around the ruck on far too many occasions but as said previously it’s very much a game to build on, let’s hope we do.

| Glad Eseh did well and shows what a difference having another hard runner can make.
Would be happy if we got him away from wigan, they have 7-8 and clearly don't need them all
