Burns made 20 tackles and only missed 2 last night. Walsh didn't miss a single tackle.

Edit. Oops it was actually 5 and 2 misses. Getting my MI's and MT's mixed up on the stats.

Good numbers from Charnock (29), Sav (28), Jones (27) and Greenwood (25) in defence with just 4 missed between them. It seems like the left was tighter than the right side this week, Turner/Greenwood/Walsh missed 5 between them with Burns(5)/Percival(5)/Vea(?)(2) missing 12. Our back 3 all hit over 150m going forward with Swift making 205. Very good numbers going forward from most players. It says Dawson made 3 errors, I can't even remember a single one. http://www.superleague.co.uk/report/11022

Just seen the game on the TV.

It was a pretty tight performance. There was a slip for 10 - 15 minutes where we took the eye of the game, but that happens when you have run up a 4 try lead and Hull KR are not a terrible team.

I think we are overly critical of the team sometimes and we looked like a well drilled outfit.

We could do with Catalans turning up on Sunday and putting in a good show.

But in the end I'm confident that we will put up a better display against Leeds than the last 2 times, when really we were just not at the pace of the game for some reason. Also don't forget even if Leeds finish above us this weekend, they have still been beaten by other teams this year who we have also beaten.

I'm not certain of a win, but confident that it will be a tighter game and not a gimme for Leeds like the last 2.
