10-18 HT against Hull

Trout has gone off injured and Leeds have been very sloppy so far.

Poor start but Hull sharper team so far.

Re: 2019 l Academy U19s : Sat May 04, 2019 12:00 pm  

Playing like the first team today, poor defence, sloppy attack, bad decisions.

Got to say the reff has been absolutly dreadful

Well that was crap.

We done our best to lose that.

Said it before and will say it again, that Spence is not up to it. Even less ability than Sutcliffe. Good goal kicker shouldn’t mean a spot.

Finished 30-26 to Hull. I can understand why so many within the game want a reserve grade after watching some of the games this season. It's a sub par standard. Although, at least introducing an U18s will perhaps put an end to some of physical mismatches you see in the comp at the moment.

How would reserve grade work? 18s and then reserve team? Or 18s, 21s and reserve team?

Disappointed with that performance today tho young Iwan Stephen's had an excellent game and Joe Burton scored a nice try. Big effort last week and down to earth a bit today.

Owen Trout injured ankle.

Think McConnell goes far too much under the radar on here to be honest. Yes I see the odd big play from the likes of Mustapha, and Dupree, and others, but McConnell for me looks the best fit for super league. He doesn’t have that explosive speed and strength of Mustapha for example, but what he does have which is best for modern game, is consistency and stamina. He has great minutes in him, great hands, terrific work rate, doesn’t miss tackles. All the things that go un noticed.

I would like to see him and Mustspha given a game next week.

Stephens looked superb by the way. Both wingers looked an improvement on Briscoe for me.

Complete joke of a performance from the ref, but even accounting for that, we were poor, attitude wasnt right from the start and it showed with the soft defence.

Thought the wingers were both good, Muizz was a handful.

Spence and o'connor the worst of the bunch for me.

Pretty frustrating game
