i agree i hate four small forwards on the field at the same time but if they all worked as hard as Fash then it would make a difference but as soon as Houghton came on the field they scored and started to get on top.
Looks like Lane will miss next week so hopefully Sao and Savellio should make it and have to say we need to replace Mcintosh quickly.
second week running he has been taken on outside for pace and he cant pass to save his life.
Pity Mitch is injured as i would fancy us to win in Catalan with Sao,Brown and Savelio back.

Still work in progress but I'm happy with the win. We have a new coach and a new spine so things will take time to gel.

Hoy and Clifford are special players who will get better as the season goes on. Scott was really good tonight and Griffin has really improved with the move to the second row.

Always nice to win at Leeds, gutted I couldn't be there tonight.

For round two of the season that was a great contest. Fair play to both sets of players for that game, while it wasn't full of quality play, the effort from both teams was great.

Hoy was never my man of the match, I'm hoping his time will come for those accolades, it was easily Brad Fash in this one. He was immense tonight.

Great for Tag to come up with the match winning try after a couple of difficult seasons for him personally.


Enjoy the victory.

Clifford is class. Could be our best signing in years.

He’s a very clever/smart player that knows his position/role and reads the game very well . Think Hoys the same and showed that with his no panic defence on the Handley break.

Talked really well at the touchscreen with John Wells.
Good exciting kids him and Tex.

Looks like the perfect half back partner to give Truman to just go and play his best game with freedom. He's a young kid but a naturally leader. This is already Clifford's team, he's the the boss.

Wish Sky would have mentioned that leeds have got Newman and Oledjski missing.

No mention of Trueman, Savelio, Sao or Carlos being out for us.

Clifford has/had a great junior pedigree. Was one of the most sought after aussie juniors. Think he picked a dud club in Newcastle, which has ended up working in our favour.

OBrian at Newcastle is a tough coach. Think Clifford just needed an arm around him, which Smith will do.

On the game, it was nice to come from behind and win at Headingley. Always seems to be the other way round againt Leeds

Wonder if the comment the sky commentators made about big news on Scott Taylor by the club in the coming weeks maybe retirement end of the season?
