Lomax has been brilliant for us but if fit Dodd and Welsby offer more

Beautifully worked try
We look like a bit of a frustrated team.

Ive got a bad feeling one of our lads is gonna do something daft in this next 10 minutes

James Roby….there are no words for that man. We are not worthy.
Phew!! All done. Just hope the judiciary see sense over the Matautia tackle.

Well deserved. Could have been 50+. Roll on next week!
Forwards win games. The backs decide by how much.
He’s been good for us over the last 3 years, Coote. He’s taken a few heavy tackles and high shots this year.

So that's Matautia & Knowles missing for next week with bans.
Really strong performance and everyone played their part out there tonight.
Still not a fan of kicking penalties when we have the opportunity under lots of pressure but I don't suppose it matters in the end

I'm sorry, but there was nothing in that Mata'utia tackle at all. The game is going soft. Sometimes you cannot avoid head contact. The player was going down, what is Mata'utia supposed to do? Not tackle him? Ridiculous.
As for Knowles tackle, slightly late but not alot in it. It wasn't high, penalty at most. It'll be a joke if he's banned.

Move out of the way and let him go through because his head is low? It's ridiculous.

The amount of lying on and interference when we play the ball by Leeds was atrocious, we were nowhere near as bad but got absoultely hammered for restarts, that in itself keeps the conspiracy alive and well.
I don’t disagree. I’m just saying, based on what players have been banned for this year, I think he probably will get a game for it. We also saw Matautia banned for a relatively similar tackle to Knowles’ so, again, on past experiences this year, I’m not particularly confident we will see either playing next week.

I thought the 8 flattered Leeds massively, it was nice of Chris Kendall to manage their pain somewhat and give them their points
How they can be playing for a place in a Grand Final is beyond me. They were so bad I thought I was watching Cunningham Saints at times
Woeful
