I was just chuckling to myself, there’s a regular contributor on here that has said a couple of times in Smith’s defence something like “well would you want an Ian Watson style of rugby ?”. A somewhat pertinent question when you consider the recent form of both Leeds and Huddersfield and their upcoming clash. Huddersfield have given out a fair few spankings to teams this season whereas Leeds haven’t spanked anybody. I’m interested rather looking forward to Fridays clash, and I might have an answer to said contributors question by about 10pm Friday night. I just hope it’s for the right reasons.

Absolutely owl.
I got accused of preferring an Ian Watson style of play because I want to see structure and discipline.
Funny that.

I actually tipped Hudds to really struggle this year.
I was wrong.

Hudds are well drilled. Watson is a coach I have great respect for.
But then they have this xfactor Tongan half back. Is a bit robust but can make any pass or kick!

Lolohea was the worst defensive top-line player I think I've ever seen in a Leeds shirt.
