[M j M]

Regular users will be shocked to learn the Our League app is not working for the season ticket holders who are supposed to have access.

Leeds have weakened team out, Catalans just scored, 4-0 kick to come. 19 gone.

Bloody nightmare this

[Man of Kent]

Rhys Evans? The ex-Warrington one?

[M j M]

At Headingley, il pleut.

4-10, Tom Davis double responded to by Rhys Evans on the same day he was confirmed as leaving Leeds.

Yup, was a bargain basement signing earlier in the year but think this is his first SL outing. Played in the Burrow/JJB game.

Half time, 6-16.

Tom Davis hat-trick completed just before half time.

The Leeds team with eight debutants isn't doing too badly based on the Radio Leeds observations but I fear it will run away a bit from them in the second half.

Radio Leeds when they leave the mic on at half time aren't as entertaining as Radio Merseyside.

I take that back to a degree, it's picking up a bit now. Not Ray French, "I've lost my jumper" good but James Deighton and Francis Cummins are talking about a big dog. Not sure if it's a euphemism or not.

Jack Walker has gone off at half time on his return from the injury he got right at the start of the season

The commentators thought he picked up a knock in the first half - or perhaps Agar is easing him back in gently/saving him for Saturday.

Someone has given Our League some mouth to mouth so it's now working.

Game is drifting away from Leeds, now 6-22 with 21 left.

[M j M]

6-34 full time.

Probably slightly better than could be expected for Leeds although Hicks did scrub off a couple of Catalans tries.

Is that Young Jack Walker?

Very strong Catalans finish. 34-6. 

That keeps Catalans back in fifth place, competing with Leeds for the vital fourth, with Catalans having an extra game in hand.

Old jack walker in that side

 

highlight of the match was Tindall almost scoring what would have been one the best trys in debut...

Nope, Cats still 5th

Yes. I just realized and changed my post just before I saw that you corrected me.

Catalans have already played and lost to St. Helens, Wigan and Warrington, so they will have an easier remaining game schedule than Leeds. This means that Catalans have an easier prospect of getting the vital fourth spot..

They need a few percentages in hand don't they?

yep would have been an excellent TRY, as it was I'm sure the coaching staff will be telling him it was a "bombed try" as a simple pass would have put one of two Leeds players in to score.

Its a harsh learning experience but great to see him have the confidence but a good learning experience as well as to how he ended it.

[Tommygilf]

I reckon its because Leeds RLFC played, all their players must be about 50 odd now. If Leeds Rhinos played I think it would have been better

Jack "glass back" Walker it is.
