Luke Dorn : Fri Jul 18, 2014 12:07 pm  

Loads of thread's on "Sir Kev" now the halo has slipped off, but lets not forget an outstanding performance from Luke Dorn last night.

MOM by a mile and probably his best game for Tigers not forgetting the Wigan home game in March.

Not a niggly player by any stretch so why does he attract players wanting to either garrot him (JP - MBE) of head-butt him - first Whelam and now Sinny ?

Well done Luke.

I think the discipline of the cas players after that head butt was superb.
Clark and finn were the 2 players in shot but not one had ago at sinfield.
Clark just tried to part the two.

Dorn had a super game, I think he got under the leeds players skin, sinfield was very frustrated and just lost it.
Infact the whole team riled the leeds team so much, was a pleasure to see.
We arnt the whipping boys any more.
Nice feeling.

Great match we really opened Leeds up first half but final pass went to wrong guy a couple of times, discipline throughout was outstanding,I think all Dorn did was appeal for a sin-bin lol, seeing Sir Kev loose it and walk off with tail between his legs was the comedy moment of the year lmao.
Fair result and I would have taken it before the game.

Class player, Luke Dorn, gets better with age!. My long lasting memory is his intercept try towards the end of the match against Warrington away in 2008, when Paul Cullen resigned after losing at home to a struggling Cas team.

Re: Luke Dorn : Fri Jul 18, 2014 10:53 pm  

He's always been fantastic in attack. Very underrated player.

Quality player. Powell was right to rest him last week, came back better this week. I think sinfield was frustrated Leeds had messed up the previous set and allowed Cas the initiative. Not that it justifies his utter brain fart.

And to add to the great game that he had, I'd like to add that he spoke like a top bloke after the game. Regarding the Sinfield incident, he didn't try to make anything of it. He just said it was one of those things that happens in the sport. He had no issue with it.
Great game all round. Think Cas deserved the win, to be honest. We were playing our full-strength team, and Cas matched evrything we did. And the disallowed try was a joke!
Well done Cas.

From a Leeds fan it was a great game, good to see a ref have the balls to do the right thing. I can't see why the Cas try was chalked off? I can't say Cas were the better team as the kicks out on the full and not putting us to the sword with 12 men was an opportunity missed, but neither were Leeds, shocking game management for various drop goal opportunities. Sinis brain fart.

A draw was a fair result.

Would agree with most of that I two think A draw was a fair result both team will be cheesed off at the end poor execution with there final play but was still a very good game for me. On Luke glad he played well because he had bit of stick of a late why I have no idea because he is a very clever player and as been coached perfect for me rested when needed to be to keep him fresh.

Always liked Luke. He was my favourite player in 2008 and I was gutted when he left us. He's been fantastic for us this year and he would definately be in my top 5 players for this season.
