| First time I've ever walked away from a Leeds match happy in defeat.
We looked absolutely shattered in the second half and to keep Leeds out like we did in the last 20 was absolutely magnificent.
I don't love to admit it, but Leeds are far and out the best side in the comp this year, and as Macca said, that's the hardest they've had to work for a win all season.
The effort and dedication of our players is totally second to none this season considering the same group were taking batterings last year with a supposed "superstar" running the show for us.
Minus the superstar and trophy lined coach - we have a group of men all fighting for the cause under a coach formed from true granite and it's paying dividends.
If we don't win another game but play with that commitment, pride and desire then I won't complain a jot - though I think we will turn most teams in the comp over playing like that.
Takes something when, half way into the season, Castleford Tigers' biggest defeat of the campaign came on Thursday night...... by 8 points.

Good post lad. And don't forget here, that It is that coach, that started the era you were to see at Leeds. He might not have won himself, but he started it all off with what he started.

| Quote Gotcha="Gotcha"Percentage kick rates isn't really the best of comparison. Not unless those percentages are split into metres from the posts.
What is undeniable however, is that Sneyd put over a very difficult kick from the touch line with ease.'"
Given that most Cas kicks come from out wide, I'd say it's bloody good. And I don't need to measure metres to tell you that: look how many tries Carney has scored, and Owen, and Dixon, and Clare.

I was actually defending your post, by pointing out regarding distance from post. My point was the person you were comparing to may not have had the same kick distances.

I think a lot of Leeds fans are keeping their eye on Powell well aware of the work Powell did. AT the time I think he was a bit of a scapegoat - but that's an outsider looking in and I was only a baby at the time myself! I've spoken to a load who are thinking he will end up at Leeds evenatually.
Him and Macca are very much in the same mould and you could tell how pumped both teams were to win. It's refreshing to see, considering Leeds were the Salford of the late 80's and early 90's, how they've put focus into the foundations of the club and are reaping the rewards. No problems with that as a blueprint and there's no doubt Powell, with Gill's assistance and support, is bringing that ethos to Cas
