Just got back after a little diversion around North cave/South cave/God knows where!!!


Gutted to lose virtually at the death in heartbreaking fashion. Thought their try right on half time was crucial (dumb offload by Ashworth).


Gutsy effort though, can't fault them for that. Still feel positive about the progress we're making.

We finished 8th and 9th under Hodgson and that looks to be where we are heading again. My point was we can't keep saying 'oh well at least it wasn't a 60 point defeat like 2024' each week defeats are still defeats at the end of the day.

It's not time for panic stations and I had us down to finish 8th anyway...just disappointed that the last two games were winnable but discipline (last week) and errors (this week) let us down. Also we are poor at home and have the bulk of our home games still to come.

I agree with most of his points, opinions are still allowed on this board right? or do we all have to post it's fantastic to have lost 4 in a row??

I'd rather keep Litten at centre than Chamberlain as we are using his height for high kicks. There was a moment in the 2nd half when he could have passed to Martin but didn't. Not sure Martin would have scored but there was space for him.


Thought we got better impact off the bench from Eseh and Ashworth (minus that offload) and they played longer minites than normal which was good to see. 


Not to pick on Amir, which the ref seemed to be on his case all game, but Cust has made 2 clean breaks from dummy half and don't think Amir has. He can do the graft and hard work but still don't like that an FC coach opts to play our 9 for a full game. Balmforth isn't the finished article but having an interchange hooker (and spelling accordingly) could make a difference. With the second row we don't have much options atm but we do at 9.


Thought Leeds did a good job on Sezer but at least we aren't relying on him for a last tackle .


This felt a bit like our games against Wakefiled, Leigh and Huddersfield where it could have gone either way and where it went our way earlier this season but not so much now. A good reaction to the Huddersfield loss (Eseh in particular), Leigh will.be another tight game I imagine

I'm not sure our home performances are too bad and dont think it's a big concern yet, we have t won yet, but tough to judge when we have only been beat by the too best teams in the league, let's see how we do against the lesser sides

It does feel like 2 points lost however Leeds have been in good form, were at home and were pretty much full strength. We've got a lot of home games to come, players to come back and hopefully if we can get a bit of luck and some form together there's no reason why we can't get close to the top 6.
