Bad to worse for them…

Said it elsewhere, you want sides going through transition be it coaching or players or both. That’s what made Leeds a tough first fixture.

Seeing the recent results I'm not overly fussed about our result.

Yep, totally. I always thought we'd struggle yesterday.

But that was game 1 for our side and game 50+ for theirs, and we still looked like we were the better side. Good things to come I suspect.

Lovely goal Elanga, exactly how we used to counter attack 2 years ago. Do you think we are capable of that now?

I remember lots of people bemoaning his poor decision making too. We all just ignoring that now?

That's what the wing backs in this system are meant to do, hence the Dodo links. Sadly it means Neco, who is a superb full back is going to become redundant

Its more the quick break rather than the individual, we don’t play the same way now.

It seems ludicrous to have 4 wingers and not utilise any of them, giving that role to 2 very capable full backs who aren’t really suited to flying up the wing. Yes I am going to keep banging on about this.

You’re not fussed that we lost?
