Correct- Leigh were indeed awful. Which shows just how bad we were.....

1st half yes....not 2nd half.

We would have got £UCK€D by a good side 2nd half ....

K.O out on the full & yet more dropped ball !!!

Grinding out the win against the penalty count shows some grit though.

Think we might need a marquee player before the 8's.

Think our lads gave up due to frustration with the Ref with half an hour to go, we were nowhere near good enough tonight but some of those decisions against us were appalling, Leigh didn't look anything special at all, we had lots of possession and a combination of bad decision making/lack of creativity and good Leigh defence kept us out - annoying as we only needed 1 try and i think we would have won that !!

Oh and a note to the Leigh fans, Huddersfield isn't a part of Leeds at all in reference to the Savile chants, so you made yourselves look a touch stupid with that !!

You're in Yorkshire, so that's enough for the k..bs who thinks that's remotely funny - apologies from genuine fans

And no, we were poop at best tonight

Fans shouldn't have to pay money to watch us give up after bad referee calls, if that was the main concern. 30-0 with all that possession is not acceptable.
Fans will pay there hard earned money next week, but when the crowd drops who can blame people for not paying to watch shows like that.

We seem to have a quite large & vocal group of teens & 20's who can't comprehend the evil done, they will sing it whenever Yorkshire are in town & whenever they are in Yorkshire.

Please don't let them anger you, pity the fools for they know not what they do.

" We had lots of possession and a combination of bad decision making/lack of creativity and good Wigan defence kept us out " was exactly how I'd describe our performance against Wigan last week

So were Wigan ' lucky ' like us or was it the refs fault we lost last week ?

Best of luck next week , you'll need it

Well Jools that is a matter of conjecture, I was about 4 rows back in front of the posts and wasnt sure if the ball was touched down, but a couple of (Giants) fans next to me were convinced the ball was down, so it seems the ref "got it right"....I suggest he had a better view than your "emotional view" !

Re: Hang your heads : Sat Mar 11, 2017 11:13 am  

Got frustrated with the ref so gave up and conceded 30 points. That bodes well for the future then, considering the standard of reffing, We will just have to hope that some of the other teams start to get an odd bad decision now and then.

What is the biggest disappointment for me was the lack of desire. We seemed happy enough to just have a go when we were camped on their line- compare to when Leigh "scored" their second try which he got no where near the line- because he put in the effort- and showed to be putting in the effort the ref awarded it. (Absolute joke) When we were chasing the kicks- they chased harder. That try in the second half from the grubber should never have been scored because that extra effort should have got us to the ball first.
They have us all that guff about how they don't want to be there again, jobs on the line, yadda, yadda. But yet the desire to go that extra to ensure it doesn't happen doesn't appear to be there to me.

That's exactly how it came over on the Radio, Just looks like a continuation of last season. Just turn up and get paid.
