Why put a player in 17 man squad to leave him on bench all game , we had 2/3 players blowing/out on there feet in 60th minute I do not understand what goes though McDermott head , also one of best atmospheres in south stand them last 20 mins all Leeds art we
On this occasion, I am not sure that the adjustment that would have been made, would have helped the team in the situation we were in.
Unlike all the other occassions it has happened. Take Cas for example,Lilley left on bench but both halfbacks were poor in the game. An adjustment then would have only been a benefit. To do it last night, you would have had to move Burrow back to scrum half, Lilley back to Stand Off, Sutcliffe to centre,band Keinhorst to back row, probably just to bring Falloon on. Or he would have had to take off Burrow or Lilley.

Agree. Burrow was causing Hull real problems, would have been a mistake to take him out of dummy half. I do remember Diskin used to be able to come in and just play as a forward. Falloon could have come in and replaced Achurch.

My missus could have come on and had a bigger impact than Achurch ! No desire , no bottle , no hope . How this bloke can pick up his wages with a straight face beggers belief .

He played the full 80 though didn't he? Delaney played his usual full 8.

He was on the pitch for the full 80 granted , Delaney probably contributed more in his 8 minutes though . Injury and a broken body is one thing , lack of desire and bottle is another .

As much as I think Achurch is a waste of space I can't agree with that. Delaney, even when on, died with the ball every carry (as usual at the moment) and was on the pitch for such a short time that it must now be clear he's far too big a gamble on the bench - especially if you are only going to use 3 subs anyway. Delaney has done some great things in a Leeds shirt, but all good things come to an end.
