Good result that, who were our top performers?

Just a good team effort. 1st time this yr ive seen a a Leeds team want to defend mistakes.

It was a physical game, Leeds defended their line much better than Wire. Our kicking game was excellent.

Simpson and Edgell was missing which made it an even more impressive win tho Alfie was named on bench he wasnt so we only had 16.

Really pleased with this group its got genuine quality in the backs when all fully fit.

All under the watchful eye of Paul Anderson.

Cheers marty.

Have you heard anything about when Jonah Parsons will be back fit and available?

Just watching from afar this year it clear that someones been sat on their hands for the past few years at the bottom end...16 players?...a lot of them not getting paid? a lot of unrecognisable names that have clearly just come in and a lot of good players plying their trades at other clubs? I now get why Bastians been brought in...seems he has inherited a right old mess to clean up over these next couple of Years!!

No mate. Hes been at most of the reserve games watching. Luca Atkinson and Tom Nicholson-Watton havent played yer either. They was there watching again yesterday. Must both be injured.

Certainly nobody has been sat on their hands in our junior dept. Their budgets have been totally slashed from above and to fill teams isnt easy especially reserve team.

Gary has a lot to answer for.

Cheers pal. I quite like the potential pack at reserves level

Theres no Gannons or Edwards potential among them, but really enjoyed watching them coming through Scholorship. Maybe just a soft spot, but glad we kept hold of them a bit longer. They could all do with some physical development though, Watten looked bigger at 16 than when i last seen him.

Just watched the U18 victory over Warrington on youtube. Jack Sinfield stood out for me. Created a couple of tries from short kicks and scored a try with a couple of dummies. Perhaps lacks a yard of pace to be a running threat if he gets through the line but looks to have everything else. Just need to make sure we get his development right and don't rush him. I note JJB mentioned him in his Castleford post match conference when he was discussing the performance of our half backs. I think it's far too early to be mentioning him as the answer to that problem at the moment. Hopefully will be in the next few years. Looking forward to seeing him in action against HKR in the pre match on Friday. In fact might leave straight after that so as not to spoil the night!

Taylor-Rae absolutely superb tonight, how on earth we missed out on an east Leeds lad I’ll never know.

Do like the look of Mcewan-Peters though.

Warrington too big and powerful, but we were poor, one of the worst scholarship performances under Butterills tenure for 60 mins imo, last 20 was ok. Defence was awful at times, thought it would be tough tonight, but dissapointed none the less.

Mcewan peters, Butterfield and Cassell impressed me. A few u15's showed some nice touches.

Warrington signing a highly rated youngster from this side of the pennines? i think we all know how we've missed out

Leeds' opinion of Taylor-Rae is lower than peoples on here tbh.

McEwan-Peters is a powerful lad but hes very raw at this stage. Hes got to stay away from the touchline. The left edge of the 16s of him, McCormack, Qare-Qare and Taylor looks dangerous at times but they are continually working on short side plays and have not enough room.

16s was poor tonight again but was better than the game at Saints. Theyve a lot of work to do thats for sure. They look a poor outfit but when youre signing players on amateur deals what do you expect?

As a matter of interest what type of deals were the U16s and U18s on before the cut backs and introduction of amateur terms? I guess the likes of Wigan Saints Warrington are still offering some sort of payment?

Yes and Huddersfield too.

Good win for reserves tonight 36-32 over a much more experienced KR team. Did well nearly let it slip at the end but pleased with that.

6 x u18s in the team. Really good.

Excellent win, when you consider Rovers had two overseas international players with over a couple of hundred NRL games.

There full backline was all experienced players who have all played SL. Probably nearly 500 first grade experience in that Rovers side.

Looking at the report on the Rhinos official site it would appear Hull KR scored 8 tries without any conversions

They missed their 1st 4 kicks then kicked 2 and hit post with last one. We kicked 6 from 6. Leeds was 36-16 up with around 10 to go and was hanging on at the end. Really good game to be fair.

18s beat Wigan 23 22, let's hope that's a good omen

What a game that was. 18s won 23-22 from 18-0 down

Like the look of Jake Higgins, good pick up from Cas Panthers

A really well executed drop goal from Sinfield

which number was he? 16?

8

16 was harrison gilmore

ah yes, number 8 went really well too
i thought wigan would see it out after all their good defence on their line, and the try from the scrum against the run of play, but great perseverance from our lads
