Great spirit and great win. Amazing how we could not create a try at the start of the season , and look at our attack now - does not look like the same team .
The game does raise an issue for me - should we keep Brad - sounds like he had a big impact again when he came on .

A win like that reminded me of the good old days when the team might not be playing so well and things are stacked against us then bang all of a sudden Magic plays from the likes of Sinfield, Mcguire, Burrow etc would win us games in the last 15-20 mins. It's great to see Rohan has got our team spirt back and belief. Happy for Myler & Sezer who in there time with us have had plenty of criticism from fans but sounds like yesterday they stood up and came up with big plays when all odds were against us. All Hail Sezer right?

A few issues from the extended highlights and Smith's interview (see club YouTube feed).

* Tomkins having extended verbals with Prior at the time of his sin-binning, even after Prior sent from the field.
* Sending off looked innocuous to me though admittedly the footage isn't good. Again Catalans players surrounding referee and telling him what to do.
* Smith referred to the game being the slowest he had seen this season pointing towards multiple stoppages. He cites an incident of a Catalan player getting a head-knock and stumbling about, only for the stoppage to come minutes later when Leeds manage to take possession.

It sounds like the RFL need to do more to stop teams using injuries (both real and imagined) from being used by certain clubs to interrupt the flow of the game. It ruins the spectacle, and frankly if teams like Catalans are as good as they think they are they shouldn't need to resort to this sort of skullduggery.

Just watched the extended highlights on YouTube.
Looks like Prior had a shocker all game.
The red looked harsh, but only limited footage. But he'll cop a ban.

Cam Smith MoM again for me. Involved in everything and constantly creating openings.
Loved watching him brush past Tomkins for Mylers try.

Interesting with Dwyer. Looks like he made a big impact.
Exactly the type of situation for him.
Could be a loss, and potentially come back to haunt us.

And talking of old father time catching up.
Kasiano is finished.
Yeh, he barged over for a try, but he's a liability in defence.
Slow and unfit. We targeted him.
Wire have made a mistake there.

Nice to see Smith far more involved in creating chances rather than just playing like a limited forward. When you see how much Rohan Smith has improved our play on the ball, it just makes the time wasted with Agar more annoying. We still need to improve the squad and the defence, but at least it feels like we're finally moving forward.

The full game is now on YouTube.
Apart from the first 15 minutes of the 2nd half the first hour was much more even than the scoreline suggested.

Cam Smith is developing into a real leader. He reminds me of Andy Farrell, he has all the skills to be a world class player

I agree Jack.
I really like how Cam Smith is developing.
He's starting to fulfil the potential he has undoubtedly always had.
And still only 23!
Really hope it continues.
There's a few that like to bash him on here, which is strange. But when we're struggling on the pitch, the boo boys look for a target.
Captain of the future.

Cameron's skill set has always been evident, but it wasn't utilised. I live seeing a loose forward with good hands, rather than having an extra prop there.

I've heard that some NRL clubs have been showing interest in him
