Reading the report in the YEP reminded me to add another entry to the Ganson rule book - kicking the ball direct at another players face is deemed to be the opposing player playing at the ball and 6 more tackles.

I think the rule Ganson applied was ‘attempted charge-down’ although I don’t know if Smith knew he was ‘attempting a charge-down’ at the time.

That was also in the old Russell Smith version of the RFL rule book when the Leeds full back in question was Gary Connolly.

That was one of the worst calls i've ever witnessed!! Oh did anyone else notice that morley's high tackles are now legal in our sport??

One skill that is there is the ability to get cleaned out by Adrian Morley and manage to (firstly) hold onto possession and (secondly) continue to contribute thereafter.

To be fair Mozza is showing his age a bit nowadays – he constantly ran a Bailey who seemed to deal with him without too much trouble, in fact he didn’t really trouble anyone yesterday.
I couldn't remember which centre player where so took it from the Leeds site. Apologies if I got it wrong tvoc, though you could have just said it politely and made comment on the rest of my match report. Each to their own though.

Where was I impolite?
I asked the question having specifically and deliberately highlighted your comment 'Any attacking moves we tried went down the right to Watkins and Donald. Gibson and hall on the other wing were just bystanders for large periods of the game.
Having attended the game I'm surprised you sought to find a teamsheet to form your opinion. On the face of it it appears a valid question.
Sorry if I've offended your sensibilities.

Highlights where other teams perceive the weakness to be.
Don't want to appear to be a know-it-all but I said before the game kicked off that Riley would commit at least one howler during the game.
Sure enough he did in the 70th minute to present us with the chance that McGuire took excellently. Not a fluke & one that very few other players would have taken.
Maybe only Richard Horne based on the try he scored for Hull on Friday.
Good to see him back firing on all cylinders too.
