Spot on

But will he? With Perry's injury today next season isn't looking at all rosy IMO. That'll be him and Soliola with huge injury clouds over their heads and with potentially serious injuries to Kyle and Leon it could be rehab central next season.

We're still in a position where we are missing a couple of experienced first team players in the squad next season IMO. There will be kids all over the 17. We're certainly not going to be anyones favourites for a trophy next term.

Well if thats a case what a winning formula the Bulls have got next season!



Graham was out on his feet at the back end of that game, maybe he should have been taken off. But at the time when the two tries were scored there was a lot more bodies about than just Graham. Not 100% to blame.

Let's not get all doom and gloom over next year just yet, leon and Kyle will be fit for next year, shenton will add some much needed pace to the backline and nothing to say that perry won't be back for start of 2011.

The kids will all be a season older and everyone will be looking to show simmons they should be first choice.

This season ain't over yet mate, with a bit of luck we will have Kyle, leon and maurie all fit for play offs.

Whats wrong with Soliola? Whys he out for some of next season too?

We don't know that he is. But he had knee problems while in Australia - I think he had at least one operation - and then lo and behold he managed one half of the first match of the season with us and goes off with a knee problem. He 'returns' a few weeks later, lasts half a match, and is gone for the season. Hence, we anticipate there could be future problems.

He's not. He will be fit for next year.

I see. Leeds we're linked to him before he signed for you lot. Phew.

Didnt we score 3 of our tries while James Graham was off the pitch anyway? Cant really put this loss down to Potter's tactics. However if he did leave someone off too long, it was Cunningham.

He'll come good next year, unlike Eastwood.

Don't you know that potter is to blame for every loss and mistake we make?

I agree.

Potter most definitely IS responsible for interchanges. He delayed Cunningham's return too long. A few of us were willing him back on to put some order back into proceedings. Too little too late in the end IMO.

Really? You know for sure?

Next year should be the time where we spell Jammer alot more. The signing of Josh Perry should take a massive load of the lad because if we are not careful we could burn the lad out which would be a tradegy ala Stuart Fielden suffered with his form for 3-4 years having played 80 minutes week in week out.

You don't know if the wasn't a reason for kc being off that long.

You don't know how fit kc is?

On another thread you swing it's Potters fault the jame graham turned his back on Leeds TWICE!

Potter will never win with some fans, if kc had been left on to long and missed tackles then that would be Potters fault.

Simple fact is, we lost the game from school boy errors by the PLAYERS, it wasn't potter that kicked on 3rd tackle when we was on Leeds line with 5 mins to go, it wasn't Potters fault graham didn't face the attack and Leeds scored and it wasn't potter that dropped the ball in the first min of 2nd half that Leeds scored straight away with only 2mins gone in 2nd half.

As a neutral watching yesterday, I have to agree. 22-14 up at the time and having taken the game by the scruff of the neck again after Leeds early 2nd half score. A Saints score then would have put the game beyond Leeds.

I don't give a about the reasons. The point is, KC was off too long. That's a coaching decision. And he looked just fine on the pitch.


Huh? Where?


Potter will never win with me, no. I don't trust him. I'm glad he's going and I'm looking forward to Rolls joining us.

Why was he exhausted? It's not like he ran the ball in. He just gets it and passes it before the line

[url=http://www.superleague.co.uk/statistics_player.php?season=2010&stat=metres&hs1=2010&hp1=153&hs2=2010&hp2=263Yes, of course he does[/url

Gets it 10 metres before the defensive line runs 7 metres and passes before contact, understandable why he makes the most metres.

He gets rid of the ball far too much which leads to lots of errors, While he's good I don't think he's as good as he's made out to be. Jamie Peacock is still a better player

You quite obviously dont watch the game then do you???

No blame on Potts. Simply Leeds spotted a weakness and went for it, and it came off. Bingo.
The elder heads came up with a few blunders whilst the youth looked composed.

I don't give a poop (which obviously is not what I said but the filter didn't like my actual word!) about the reason. He left him too long. I saw Keiron on the sideline. There was nowt wrong with him.


Um, spot where I have blamed Potter?

In fact, spot where I've blamed anyone?

Much as I want to vomit while saying this, the best team on the day won. We were nearly there but it's not good enough to be nearly there.

Frankly, I was amazed we did what we did. When I heard Leon was out I just thought we were fooked. But then Saints did that cruel thing that they did in the last Grand Final (when I also thought we were fooked due to our inability to score tries or in fact play rugby): they gave me hope and like the fool that I am I let that get the better of me and lost my voice screaming for them to keep up the fight/hold on/score/whatever.

I'm not remotely interested in blaming anyone for yesterday's loss. I'm still trying to recover from feeling gutted about it.
