Had a hand in a couple of nice moves. And scored a technically difficult try. He has had a slow start, I'd like to see him looking for the ball more, if he feels he isn't seeing it. I noticed in the stats against Wigan he didn't even make a tackle. I know wingers can be redundant in some games, but I feel he could increase his work-load.

haven't you heard? We're not relying on Opta anymore.
TVOC will explain why.

If Wigan choose to offer Kylie stupid money and/or a longer contract than Leeds is prepared to offer then he will go.
& why should we worry since it will further weaken Wigan.
Though, why would they want Kylie unless they're preparing to offload Palaesina or another prop?
Fielden perhaps or more likely to be a homegrown youngster (O'Carroll?)
Alternatively it could just be agent's talk as part of the negotiating process.

Ainscough had just covered himself in Dove. True story. Should still have nailed the little blighter though.
It wasn't the best effort, but muchos credit should go the youngsters way, it was an excellent attacking run.
Donald is looking slightly out of sorts. A bit more ball needed, and he should look for it more as well, plus a few more touchdowns should get him back on track. The ramblings about next year may be having an effect. Does he stay or does he go? Either way a decision needs to be made for the benefits of both parties, and whatever the outcome it will help. Then everyone knows where their heading and can plan accordingly.
Not only is he a quality winger, who's supplied us with many memorable try's, he's also ginger.

Agree entirely but in further mitigation Donald also got bumped off the tackle by the Leeds cover defender (Sinfield I think).
Not the greatest effort from Donald despite that. When you think he was switched to the right to shore up the defense on that side it makes you wonder.
