Olpherts is right up there for the worst player iv seen in a Leeds shirt, that includes Marvin Golden

Hope he never Plays for us again

marvellous marvin was miles better

You could see the difference in that Cas wanted to win and played to some sort of structure we went through the motions and have no structure whatsoever.
Olpherts once again missed tackles, poor reads and not sure what he offers that Tindall couldn`t do.
Martin again missed far too many tackles and needs to play in the forwards.
What I can`t understand is why play Handley at FB when we had an opportunity to play Hooley there, Handley on the wing and Martin in the pack especially as Holroyd didn`t make the 17.
Or if he loves Olpherts that much play him at centre with Tindall on the wing once Holroyd got injured.
Bad team selection, no idea what to do with the ball, poor defence, no aggression and no desire.
Not a chance of making the playoffs imo.

I don't know about anyone else but spending a decent amount of most weekends getting pis sed off at this lot ain't good for me anymore. And I don't even go anymore.

We’re absolutely garbage. Soft as hell. One good performance every now and again. Yes we had a lot of injuries but we should be beating Cas with that side out. I’m absolutely fed up of it. Is that 5 from last 6 lost? Absolutely garbage. Smith fills me with no confidence

It's apparent that Martin is getting the stool pigeon tag even though he's not a f#/*ing but keeps getting picked there what about the Sh<t show fullback who's a winger, Hooley must be ing himself! Stop the freak show the only thing we've been beaten on today is player position selection.

We're so far into the year now that there's really no good will left for these type of performances now. Worrying signs indeed with little in the way of players returning. Roberts is only 21 but he looked poor, martin isn't a centre but we've not much choice with the injuries. Olpherts is just awful, and the NRL can have Bentley now.

I’ve learned over 40 years of watching RL and Leeds to not let it get to me that much, it’s just a game, im as passionate as anyone but it’s not worth getting angry about.

We were awful tonight absolutely dreadful, i had a nice day up in Newcastle though, the one thing that does baffle me is how much passion and grit the side showed last week, to then turn up that dross today.

Maybe it took a lot out of them, all 3 sides that played Extra Time last week lost today. And Wigan were worse than us, they were bloody awful too.

Heard Rohans excuses yet...? im not near a TV thankgod! its like a Rohan bingo, what will he say...?
Loads of effort.... no team deserved to lose... we didn't quite have that cutting edge... he's a dikk!
I've heard of falling from grace but this is is taking the absolute pi$$

Tell me Sam Walters is leaving, without telling me Sam Walters so is leaving.

Today - appaulling and no s given.

I didn’t think Roberts played that bad but to be fair i was so high up in the stands I couldn’t really tell, im not watching it back to find out

I`m not convinced with Smith but I do think he will last the season mainly on the basis that with injuries to Newman, Simpson, Sezer, Gannon, Lisone and Tetavano and more recently Holroyd.
Not many coaches would get a lot of those players remaining in the squad.
Roberts and Olpherts below average, Hooley played one game and MacDonald slightly above average along with Lisone and Sangare.
No real quality in our team or the players he has brought in.

I was going to mention wigan and they were poor though their league position gives them much more credit to play with than us.

Fuck my life.

What the ing hell was that.

Embarassing s.

I agree but they looked really poor to me, they could easily start slipping down the table and be joining us if they don’t pick up.

I still think we can get into the playoffs but with our injuries it’s starting to look like a tough ask.

Smith won’t be going this year (rightly IMO), sorry to disappoint some in here.

By the way that was not what I typed.

We may still make the playoffs but I doubt it with the low level of so many performances.

Wire, cats, Wigan and Saints will be in, can we catch Salford and Leigh and get past HKR? Not playing like we do away from home most games.

Smith looked a worried man near the end, like a rabbit in the headlights and he is under pressure now. He’s signed a number of players who are not good enough, our last captain has walked out and he can’t persuade young players to stay(I’m not convinced about Walters or Tindall but fact is we offered deals and Both are leaving).

He can’t seem to arrest entire halves of abysmal, error strewn, brain dead play.

If we make the play offs the game needs to scrap the play off system. I like the grand final but it has killed the CC and for a team like Leeds with no attacking structure whatsoever to make the play offs would be embarrassing. Smith has 3 games into next season for me. If we're still this bad we need a change.

Going into the game I suspected it was no better than a 50 - 50 given the amount of players we had out (before Holroyd's late withdrawal) and the massive improvement any game against Leeds brings out of Cas. But boy that was dreadful! 13 minutes to defend a 10 point lead against a poor team and we couldn't summon the professionalism to do it. I would have taken an ugly win this week, but were not good enough to manage even that. Come on, Rohan - sort it out.

We're not getting into the playoffs this year and nor do we deserve to. 14 games in and still producing dross like tonight irrespective of injuries is not acceptable and very worrying.

It’s simply not good enough for a club of our stature. We’ve gone backwards this year big time

Need to draw a line under it. Don’t let it ruin people’s weekends.
I’ve played and watched sport my whole life and I’m 42 now. Far more disappointments than achievements in both amateur and professional sport.
Leeds will come good again. May take another few years, but will definitely happen. Keep the faith!

Perfectly put Seth

Marvin Golden was nowhere near Olpherts standard

Olpherts is Joe Vickery bad.
