Don’t get me wrong mate, there is definite room for improvement. It was our indiscipline that cost us dearly today and I’m finding it really hard to understand what Buderus brings to the party that Diskin doesn’t.
But I don’t think we need to change our style of game at all, just improve the way we are playing.

I thought DB was better than disko today mate.
Disko hasn't been his usual self these last couple of matches his defence isn't as strong and his distribution has been very avaerage imo.
There's enough quality in our squad and it's a case of getting them ALL match fit and firing and playing the same tune.

Since his injury which kept him out of the Warrington game, he's been off the pace since after a start which was bringing back signs from 2004.

W******

So any criticism is not allowed?

Leeds attack looks sadly pedestrian when compared with saints. the dummy runners and passing is at a totally different speed to ours.

At the moment we seem to be relying on moments of individual brilliance rather than having any sort of structure and game plan.

many have said it but here it is said again what on earth is Donald doing on the right wing? what an attacking side we had with lauitiiti senior and donal out on the left why change.

A right centre is needed badly. Gleeson seems to be available why not spend and get him? Watkins is younf enough to learn and will still get enough game time in between.

He wanted him there with smithy in the centre the idea was so that we didn't have 2 younger lads(smith + hall) defending 1 side together!

Gibson 7 - Apart from a couple of mistakes, he played quite well today, hopefully he can have a run in the side and regain his form of 2007.

Sorry...

Sent Donald clear twice, the first time he should have finished, a 7 is a bit kind i suppose.

I’ll agree that today DB’s defence was better than Diskin’s but when Matt is firing on all cylinders I can see much between them.

Maybe Buderus was out of sorts today (ring rusty) but he through a couple of passes that had NHS written all over them and his distribution was what I’d expect from a SL hooker but nothing world class.

As I say DB has hardly played in the last 8 moths and that we might not have seen anything like the player that we signed last year to press but as it was today I wouldn’t have classed him as anything special.

Can't really argue with any of that efc mate i thought disko was poor last week aswell.

On the subject of hookers,Don*t you think it could be a good call to give McShane a go,? Heard he is a very promising player and one for the future.

The thing that always bugs me with Leeds is the way we always seem to turn down penalty goal attempts against Saints 2 points is better than none.
