That game had everything...

...that is wrong with the sport.

Boring, slow, whistle, inconsistent refereeing, diving, cheating, arguing with the referee, crude chanting, lacklustre play from elite players, players not at the standard these clubs should attract and a terrible production and commentary for the television audience.

Very few moments of quality. Tomkins' dg was as good as anything on show tonight and just about deserved to win it.

Think tonight showed a good argument for scraping the double header at Easter. 4th game in 14 days for both and it definitely showed. Play that the week before Easter or 3/4 weeks down the line I think you get a much better game. That was both teams on 30/40%

TBF the weather wasn't exactly shocking but again the balls we use from Rhino (yes I know the name isn't lost on a Leeds fan complaining) but they do seem poor and most coaches have criticised them.

It was a bit of drizzle and I never knew rain caused people to dive

Didn't the ref slip twice?
