Woolford ‘warm up was poor we came out like a team that only thought we could win’ ‘we thought we prepared well but the guys were not at the races’
Oh dear the Coach and his merry band of assistants condemned from Woolfords own mouth !!
The players well... honourable mentions for Darnell, Clough, Lawrence and OBrien that’s about it although I thought Uate did ok for a winger that never gets a pass. His tackle that was followed by a shameless surrender by a shocking non attempt to tackle Briscoe by Joe Wardle deserved more.
Kruise Leeming should have been dragged off after the second Leeds try from Dwyers kicks where he only had to fall on the ball to prevent the try but stood and watched. He was very poor all round.
The clincher for me was when Clough was encouraging them to a scrum on the Leeds 20 to stop the clock at 18-32 no one was really bothered even though Leeds were rocking at that point again ‘shocking’
In 58 years of watching this team the first half yesterday was one of the most abject surrenders I have seen 0-30 to the poorest Leeds team in 50+ years the whole playing and coaching staff should ‘hang their heads in shame.’
How poor were we?
Well given Leeds had two players yellow carded, and missed 50 tackles in the game shows how poor we were.
About as poor as the hudds crowd, who were silent. Most of em probably too
or too stunned to make any noise.
