Well, a thoroughly enjoyable afternoon at HQ. Didn't see that coming at all but a disciplined (for the most part) performance, full of energy, cohesiveness and players who looked like they knew what their job was. Superb stuff.

Big raps for the defence today line speed superb .
Frawley a different player under Brad Arthur.
Miller's best game by a country mile.
Wigan probably thought they only had to turn up.
Performances like that can hopefully persuade Arthur to sign a contract extension.

Lots of individual improvements amongst the team one for me.

I’ve knocked Bentley in particular a lot recently but credit where it’s due today he was good and importantly upped his work rate ball in hand.

Hoping Fus coming off was precautionary. When was the last time he did 80?

I was supposed to be away today but it got cancelled- thankfully!

What a tonic that was - a proper performance

Always great to be beat Wigan. Thought they hit the wall at about 25 mins, but in fairness our injury hit, almost propless 17, took their chance when it came. We would have lost that game 5 weeks ago. McDonnell was my MOM. He really got after Smith.

Had a good feeling about today. We needed 2 points, Wigan had played mid-week and without French they are a different team. McDonnell MOM for me he was awesome followed by Rhys and Bentley. On to the Magic!

Mcdonnell my MOM as well, he was everywhere.

Good to see Wigan fans gunning for Walters, believed his own hype.

That was the most complete performance I've seen in a long time the whole team played as a "team" marvelous stuff only down side was Fusitua again hopefully he will do the right thing now he's injured again and make way for the youth.

That was a very good display from all the players today.
No dying with the ball and stopping the flow when Smith plays.
McDonnell, Bentley and O`Connor my top 3.
Miller played well but bombed a certain try not passing to Newman but certainly made up for it.
Smith was lucky not to get binned for a tip tackle on Bentley and for pulling him back with some force.
Silly man will miss a couple of games now just when Wigan needed him.
Without doubt the 3 games in 10 days took it`s toil but we gave them nothing and had a well deserved win.
If only we had beat Salford last week.
And hats off to Peat who recognised Smith`s shortcomings.

Really enjoyed that today. Not just the performance and beating the pies, but the ref seemed to do a decent job and the two tier refereeing we have seen over the last few years wasn’t evident today. There were some really strong displays in there, and the players actually looked like a team. It might seem unfair to single a player out that hasn’t even played today for criticism, but it was a joy to watch a Leeds team without Cam Smith getting in the way. He’s like a governor on a car, slowing things down. Everything seemed to flow much better and Frawley looked a decent playmaker without Smith getting in the way. That’s only my opinion, and I don’t want to seem like a killjoy after a display like that, bit I’m dreading his return next week along with that silly little drop off play he does with Frawley. Thought the atmosphere was the best at Headingley this season, there hasn’t been any atmosphere up till today, and though the crowd was sparse in the South Stand they did a good job of lifting the team along with everyone else. Will watch the recording back again tomorrow for the first time this season, just hope we don’t get beaten this time.
