I mean the long term future and the hands it's in. Rohan Smiths impact on the mentality of the team is astounding.

Not true though is it , he has been our best attacking threat for a long time now and his defence is up there with most . I for one am sad he is going and he will come back to haunt us .

Fair enough

He’s a spark And always will be. Amity likes the Ozzy controlling type of 9 though. Fair enough….

It is true.
He makes too many errors.
He had a good game tonight, but let's not get bleary eyed. He's leaving for a reason.

Agree, Dwyer can be a game changer. I'm sorry he's going, but in Rohan we trust...

And that's the key. For all Dwyer has improved in recent weeks, the salary cap means that we've to make these key decisions to strengthen in the right areas and with Smith backing Leeming, Johnson and O'connor, dwyers salary can be put to good use. Rohan clearly has a plan and who is any fan to argue given the evidence on the field.

You’re referring to Blake Austin aren’t you?

Most definitely

Great win. Oledski, Tet, Muizz, and Gannon put great shifts in tonight. Hope Newman's injury isn't too bad. Hopefully Rohan can help add a bit of subtlety to his game next year. He puts himself under a lot of physical duress every time he carries the ball and that raw enthusiasm needs to be tempered. Hardaker put in some exceptional efforts tonight but I'd be surprised if he plays next week. Needs a rest by the look if it. Smith has, and continues to make, a huge difference.

I agree with all of that. A great win but could be costly injury wise. With the 4 back next week and hopefully Bentley as well, we were looking almost full strength but could lose another 3 or 4 after tonight and that’s before the ‘MRP lottery’ draw on Monday

Really happy with the result under those circumstances, crazy game to watch, but enjoyed it.

I was disappointed with Magsy’s interview at the end. No nod to Leeds at all, just moaned about injuries, Daryl Powell esq.

What an absolute be**end Parcel is also. Can see what Sinfield meant.

Yeh, I felt the same.
He kept saying he wasn't using injuries as an excuse and then that's all he did for the full interview. Shame.
Rohan really is like Tony in his interviews. Stays calm and doesn't want to give too much.

Agree. Zak was limping and needed a bit of attention in backfield but think he has to play if OK as we will be fairly busted again.

Unlike a few on here I thought Tindall did pretty well overall although his lateral running near our line was risky. Early on Litten’s kicking was superb although not put under any pressure.

That was a very good win considering we lost Smith early on and how we would have trained for this game with him as our pivot.
All the forwards played well.
Did Mik play 70 minutes last night?
Myler very good and is playing much better in the halves since his split with Helen Skelton


I reckon we will be without Zak, Smith, Thompson and Newman next week and yet another reshuffle in the backs.
We might have to go with Myler FB, Tindall RW, Martin RC, Sutcliffe LC, Handley LW, Austin SO, Sezer SH.

Mik did a big stint, but how much better did Tet look in the back row, and he did 80 minutes.

I wonder if Hardaker is fit they might play Austin at centre, that’d minimise shuffling, keep Hardaker at 1 and myler in the halves.

What is the latest on Newman?

"Harry Newman will have scans in the following days to ascertain the extent of his injury with an update likely later next week." from rhinos site

Scan next week on his hamstring, but it doesn't look good

looking at the cam footage in the dressing room on Sky he looked in tears, the players were consoling him and my guess hes gone again for the season,

Is it the same hamstring he did at Wakey?

What did he say about Parcell? Missed that

What a load of crap about Magsy , they were asking him about injuries and he answered

I personally felt McGuire spoke quite well.
