46-14 to Leeds. Couple of tries to Hurrell, Merrin playing at loose and Lolohea setting up a few and good with the boot.

Still stuff to work on as completion rate wasn’t the best with a bit too much drop ball but we still racked up a big score despite that. Might be a one off but in both halfs we ran in back to back to back tries which isn’t a bad thing IF that is something to can do on a decent frequent basis.

Unlikely we’ll pick up a win at Saints especially with the short turnaround and them having the week off but an encouraging sign today that when the more winnable fixtures come we might do well.

I thought I was going to get shown up with my opinion that Leeds will be dangerous if they click... thankfully they saved my blushes sooner than expected, and with the added bonus of shunting Warrington to the top of the pile!

I'll probably get lambasted but we got slaughtered by the most average Leeds side I've seen in the last twenty or so years.
We were shockingly embarrassing.

It's hard to know exactly where teams are at the moment?Fancied Leeds to win but not that much of a scudding .i like the look of Salfords backs on paper but today was their first real test as a team. We play Salford next week but will have to be far better than today. Well done Leeds and sets up Fridays tv game nicely

Leeds weren't bad to be fair but we were atrocious for a spell in both halves. 2 penalties straight from kick off, multiple missed tackles, dropped ball and just a really poor effort from.us. Strange thing is we were in the game until Turgut got binned with 28 mins left. Still no idea what the sin-binnjng was for (looked like ongoing man-bags tbh) but no excuse for the capitulation after that. Just basic, dumb errors which made us look worse than we are and Leeds a lot better than they are.

Can't even blame the ref although he couldn't be ar$ed bothering to enforce the 10m rule which was a joke.tbh.
