We may be scoring more out wide but Pat was kicking those as well last season. He is definitely a bit off form at the moment.

does he still have an injury ? early season he was certainly not kicking. then he was only takng the place kicks. now hes doing it all, but he still doesnt look right.
will he be under the knife in the off season ?
Ah, good taste!
What a dreadful thing!
Taste is the enemy of creativeness.
Watching the interview with Noble on the website it looked as though Pat was doing some extra work on his kicking which is good to see and I'm sure we'll see him knocking 'em over from everywhere soon enough.
The video title on Media Player was Jason Scotland as well

Leeds score everywhere on the line, so its hardly surprising Sinfield is the leading licker.
Assuming you mean kicker and not licker then I think it's a bit harsh on Sinfield. In his last game against Wakefield he used the elements to put the ball over from the corners effortlessly so he isn't just given academic kicks.
Pat has been off form for quite a bit now, maybe we should try alternating our kickers and ease the pressure off Pat with Roberts or Riddell given a go.

I don't think he has been the same since the world cup with the boot. He did not seem to kick well for Ireland and that seems to have been brought into this campaign sadly.
I think part of it is that we score quite alot of tries outwide. I am sure he will put in the effort and get it sorted though. He was easily one of the best in the world for the last 2 seasons.
Dropkick Murphy..we actually saw and heard a mass of bouncing and scarf and flag waving to Dale Cavese that drowned out anything we could muster.. It stopped us singing our own celebratory songs, it died out seconds later when we accepted we couldn't be heard over the Wigan lot Celebrations muted from us, job done from them. Most fans who slag them off are jealous their own club's support is nowhere near that good - sally cinnamon..Why not discuss Wigan? It's a rugby league message board. Wigan are the most famous brand in rugby league - Tre Cool..Saints fans are hopeless unless it's a cup final or grand final. Wigan fans are so much more loyal and passionate - the flying biscuit..Wires havent been massively succesful over the years, but I've spoke to Brian Bevan And he spoke to me and i wouldnt swap that for Wigans History, ever - Ande..on the TV i could only hear the Wigan fans with about 10 to go - Saint94..Every team is in your feckin shadow, we all know - FIOS
