Cheshire Setter Posted July 5, 2021 Share Posted July 5, 2021 I think the big clear-out by Powell is justified. For whatever reason, there’s been a struggle for consistency in the team for a good few years now. There is a distinct lack of on-field leaders when things don’t go the team’s way. Hopefully Powell can bring a fresh mindset and find some gritty Captain of his own who can drive the team a bit when needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M j M Posted July 5, 2021 Share Posted July 5, 2021 Prior is immense, it's critical we try and renew him for next year to look after this young pack. Great win by Leeds, they lost their way in the second half but showed a huge amount of grit to stick at it. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnM Posted July 5, 2021 Share Posted July 5, 2021 The forum overwhelmingly predicted a Warrington victory. From the Radio 5L SE commentary, Warrington seemed to make too many errors, losing the ball at critical moments. Kevin Brown came over really well as the pundit. People who think they know everything are a great annoyance to those of us who do. Isaac Asimov Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lineham must have been involved in the majority of those blown half chances? This world was never meant for one as beautiful as me.

Leeds are not as bad as their league position. we’ve played like this for the last 4 games and bar a bad night at Hull KR we’ve been in every contest even a CC game against saints with two forwards as half backs.

MZH Posted July 5, 2021 Share Posted July 5, 2021 1 hour ago, Sir Kevin Sinfield said: Some great predictions on here The bookies had Warrington 14 point favourites, not really a shocker that most peoplehad Warrington to win. FWIW I took Leeds +8.5 at 8/5, but was let down in the tennis for my double. Leeds played very well in the first half, and then were able to withstand a lot in the second to hang on. I'm pleased with the result because it tightens everything up nicely at the top and means Hull keep right on Warrington's coat tails. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoubleD Posted July 5, 2021 Share Posted July 5, 2021 What awful commentary. What should have been an exciting finish was defused by Arthur saying ‘and that’s the only consolation that Warrington will get’ after Charnley scored his second try with a minute to go. I genuinely don’t think Arthur has any clue about the game in spite of commentating on it for years. So frustrating 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DoubleD Posted July 5, 2021 Share Posted July 5, 2021 What’s happened to Ashton? Not heard about him for a while, is he injured? I was surprised to hear Wire linked with Dufty when they’ve got Ashton and Rashford.

MZH Posted July 5, 2021 Share Posted July 5, 2021 I'm still not totally sure what to make of Leeds. In pre season I had them on the edge of playoff contention and just couldn't understand why some people expected them to do so well. But since they got over some early season injuries they look a decent side. They have a very strong pack which will make them tough to beat. The halves and backline are still lacking though. Depth is their problem, but if they stay fit we could have a really good playoff race on our hands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
