It was an entertaining game for sure. I'm happy with the boys because we showed desire and didn't give up. Leeds deserved the win and clearly were not as fatigued as we were. I think many of our errors came from fatigue. Kelly was impressive in defense. Sneyd is a joy to watch and I think we missed Watts big time. We didn't expect to win but that was better than I expected. I have a sneaky feeling we may have won had Ellis not been yellow carded but at least he is not on report
If Ellis gets a ban after that then I hope Pearson offers to pay whatever fine Radders gets for slagging the hell out of the whole refereeing/disciplinary system. If a couple of coaches spoke out and didn't hold back then I'd like to think a few more would join in.

I'll be surprised if the 10 mins in the bin isnt sufficient for ellis. Think talanoa gone for season, hopefully carlos just a tweak. Still not giving up on turgut , but hes been pretty poor

Think it was Michaels for a hit on Walker. Only seen it once but my impression was that Walker was running atMichaels and started to go down. Michaels instinctively raised his forearm to protect himself. Might change my mind when I see it again though
No disrespect to Thompson but I hope you're right as it causes us less of a problem if he has to miss a game than Michaels. Taking into account Tuli's injury.

Say it was more of a forearm to the face of Walker. Still don't get the hype about Turgut? Rushes in to tackle and more often not gives a penalty away with a poor attempt at grabbing the opposition. Is the hype because he's a local lad?
