| Correct the 15 minutes in the second half when they scored 3 tries was when Merrin was off the field. Other than that grateful for the win, I enjoyed most of the game and sat opposite the South stand the atmosphere coming out of that stand was brilliant. It's two points and more work needed but it was a step forward. I haven't seen or heard Powell comments about him saying it was if we had won the cup, but if you look at his players when the drop goal went over it was if they had lost the cup. The win last night meant so much to both teams, even I celebrated like we had won the cup

You want him to do well as he's your 7 but he's bang average.'"
I was talking about last night, not what he is generally. Last night he was as good as any half out there, as I said you were talking rubbish.

| Quote ="Davc1h"Well done Leeds, the right result I think but it should have been much easier. I think they were entitled to celebrate like they did as it is a big win for them, not just the points but the fact they won a tight game.
Cas were a shadow of the team of the last 3 seasons and there is a lot of work to do at the club. Not sure where we go from here, did not see the McShane incident but sounds like he will pick up a ban. Rest might do him good as he was poor tonight.'"
Gale is a big miss, everything went through him and obviously hasn't been replaced with him being injured so late in the day.
Still have enough as a team to make the top 5 i think but Warrington and Saints a t this point look on a different level to the rest.

Not saying much mate because there were only 3 halves out there last night and I'm being generous labelling Sutcliffe as one. Did he have a better game than Trueman, maybe but that's because our pack were on the back foot for an hour. Last 20 Myler was AWOL because your pack were gassed, the best he could do was drill a ball into touch , much to our gain at the time really because it just gave us an uncontested scrumto get back on the front foot. Did Myler do much to stand out the way you're making out, not really.
As I said, there were at least 4 players from your side who stood out more so than Myler and probably a few from ours too, thus putting Myler about half way up and in the average bracket which is what he is in general as well.

| Quote ="Exeter Rhino"I don't think it has been pointed out on the thread yet, but I'm pretty sure the three second half Cas tries all came when Merrin was having a breather on the subs bench. Just goes to show how important he is for us - early days but the effort in attack and defence was reminiscent of a certain JP.
It doesn't say much for the rest of our weak middle defence for the latter part of the second half though. Some forwards were getting brushed off far too easily when Cas were returning kicks - as the Matt Cook break illustrated. That said with JJB and Holroyd unable to come back on there must have been some tired bodies out there!
So relieved we got the win. What ever you want to say about the problems with the Cas team, they are still third in the table and were desperate to put it right after last week. Leeds were also missing a lot of players considered at the start of the season to be first choice - Ferres, Lolohea, and Ward, not to mention long term absentees like Ablett and Crosby. I know we might prefer some of these players out of the team, but it was pleasing to see those that were on the field working hard for one another to get the result. They really do seem to have come together.'"

Myler was the best player on the pitch, I repeat LAST NIGHT. You are talking nonsense mate. He was far from AWOL during that 20 minutes, when we didn’t have the ball.

| Mylers kicking game was dreadful though and that’s such a big part of a half’s role. This drilling it into touch tactic so early in the game is awful and partly responsible for the momentum shift later in the game.

| Maybe he is, it’s still awful. And some of his other kicking left a lot to be desired too.

| We all know Myler isn't the answer but his role while around should be to give early balls to whoever is outside him and in last 2 games he's done that.
Merrin and Cam Smith was both outstanding last night.
I'm Dwyer's biggest critic and I still am but I can't knock the energy and effort he puts in every week. Fair play to him.
Pleased most for Dave Furner, a lot of nonsense has been spoken about him. The way we attack and move the ball is much improved in a short time on the previous regime. Handley has more tries this year than Ryan Hall got passes on that wing last few years.
We've a lot to work on and a lot of players to ship out yet and we're going to have to be patient but the way young forwards Cam Smith and Mikolaj went last night showed the way we need to go.
Have to say Merrin was his usual self last night. Proper forward, proper player. Outstanding.
One last request can fans keep criticising Jack Walker please? Every time people jump on his back for no reason the kid, and I mean kid, produces an outstanding performance. He's 19 year old and a special talent. I've no idea what people to see to knock him. He's a long way off the finished article but he's a tremendous prospect for his age.

| Well done on the win. You deserved it. We only started to play from 60 minutes and if we had won I think you'd have felt cheated. Mcshane should have seen 10 for the elbow. Imagine he will be missing a couple of games now.
Impressed with the stadium too. My favourite ground has always been Headingley. Even more so now.
Hurrell is a beast of a player. Impressed with your full back too. He looked dangerous and will get better.
Reckon you'll be up there at the end of the season.

Your deluded to think any of your players came close to his performance. Not even sure any of them could ever match that level.

To be fair Liam Watts was absolutely outstanding.
Myler gets some stick but his excellent quick service to our left edge is part of the reason Koni and Handley are going so well, I’m hoping Tui can get some weight off and fitness back because I don’t think they are as bad of a half back pairing as some think

We need quality not a 10 minute plodder.

| Walker was the man of the match by a distance followed by Merrin, Hurrell and Cam Smith.
He is a superstar in the making anyone who thinks he should be sacrificed to allow a failed/over weight half back to get a game needs their bumps feeling.
