Leeds could have done a Salford and refused to play, they are clearly playing busted and out on their feet as well as possibly infected by Covid. Hats off to Leeds for getting back out on the field, playing more games than any other team in such a short space of time.

They have only played one game more than the beaten semi finalists. They have also played a weakened side in at least 3 of the games. 

Most sides have been affected by Covid to be fair.

But they didn't and you got a beating, live with it.

Not all teams have looked to cancel/postpone games, when Warrington had 8 players missing for 2 games they played both. The last two were cats covid and Salford no players, whilst I see leeds have a tough schedule they cancelled games earlier in the season.

Possibly infected by Covid? 

[PREPOSTEROUS]

Fair play to Johnstone for playing on after having the not insignificant full weight of Brett Ferres landing on his neck.

Good performance

So, clever clogs, which two Leeds players played with broken ribs, and which player was named in the bench who was’t fit to play? Oh, and which one got out of his sick bed to play having not eaten for 4 days? Well played Trinity. Thoroughly deserved.

Yes they were exposed to 13 infected people in Monday’s game against Castleford 

[JohnM]

Disgraceful and irresponsible in the extreme. They  should have been in quarantine,. Their behaviour may well be illegal.

Looks like Leeds players are suffering the effects of the Covid disease, they must have become infected from the 13 positive Castleford players in Monday’s game, time will tell but I expect it to show up in the next round of testing

Crisis What Crisis ? well played Wakefield

If the comeback happens, it'll be all the sweeter

I was a bit concerned there might be a comeback Tommy.

I think the fact that Wakefield played a more shrewder tighter game in the second half prevented another Huddersfield.

Also they had no loss of players so were able to save energy. 

It was an enjoyable game.

2 easy wins for Leeds, even with Covid ruling out 4 first team players 

You know your stuff!

A really enjoyable game... after all the bad news it’s nice to be a trinity fan with a smile about rugby again! 

[BrisbaneRhino]

Well played Wakefield.

I'd say a fair few Leeds players clocked off after the CC. Its human nature and one reason the double is so hard.

I hope Agar forgets position now. We were always longshots to do anything other than make up the numbers in the playoffs. I'd rather he started properly mixing some of the younger players into the team for the rest of the year. Zero point playing someone like Ferres, but also zero value in playing a team full of kids.

Ignoring the blatant troll and WUM for a moment that was a decent win for Trinity.

Any win against Leeds is special, so well done Chris Chester and Trinity.

I love luke Gale's defence

To be honest Gale and Leeds looked a bit lost when they were not in a raging downpour and basic kicks into tbe corner were out. Organisation went walkabout.

Knock the trolling on the head now, it's getting really annoying.

If you don't do it voluntarily, I will do it for you.
