Most inept display by a Leeds winger for a long while that (Joe Vickery included) Shadow of his former self, wasnt even jumping for those high balls in the second half.

What's happened to him?

He was told not to jump in the second half, and that was clear for all to see. He should have been told to grow some balls, get his head out of his backside, focus, and do his job. But the decision to tell him to not jump and take the player destroyed him and made it far worse. Stupid stupid advice.

That bad i almost feel a bit sorry for him, should have been withdrawn after early scare with Lilley to half moon centre and keinhorst wing for me but Never happened. He Needs dropping asap, put keinhorst on wing for now we can't keep hoping Tom will snap out of this form or come good its only going to get worse.

I do wonder if that is possibly the last time we will see him in a Leeds shirt.






What you looking at?....Butt Head!!

When Fonua was outjumped by Hall, for the rest of the game anytime a kick went up Hull 'congested that area not allowing Hall a free run. Your protection of Briscoe was pathetic considering Sneyd time and time again was putting it on a sixpence.

He had a shocker but I've seen worse than that, although maybe not in recent years.

It is hard to understand it, since being injured he seems to have lost all confidence and even his timing seems to way off. Interestingly, he outpaced Fonua to McGuire's kick and McGuire obviously thought he could. To me, in general play, he has looked like he is playing with lead boots at times.

He needs someone to coach him back and I can't see that happening at Leeds. Yesterday and for all of the season, he has been left completely exposed. McGuire is defending inside him and he lacks the physical presence to help him out. In addition, where were are the cover defenders to get around him? The difference between the two teams on kick defence yesterday was marked.

How do you know what he was told to do in the second half? Or is this just your opinion?

It was clear anyway. But I spoke to specifically to a player after game, having had a go about Briscoe not jumping, and he said that was the instruction to get round the loss of confidence at half time.

Can't blame Briscoe. Was all McDermotts fault not sorting it out at half time.

Sneyd was allowed all the time in the world to place his kick wherever he wanted then Briscoe was left to deal with 2 or three on rushing attackers with no support from a standing start.

Brett wasn't any better than Tom. I still fail to see how he was a good purchase for the club. Gave away two tries yesterday. Fair play to Hull though they wanted it more than Leeds

hmmmmm whats that smell? I am sure players where very keen to come out and have a chat with the fans after a heavy defeat and tell somebody absolute crap like that.
