Quote ="dangermouse1969"I blame Harlequins for being the better team! We deserved nothing last night. The only positive point was the saints went through a very similair patch before they put togther a great run of results last year. Hopefully we can iron out our problems to work towards a better 2nd half to the season, except that we don't fail at OT!'" Thats all well and good mate, but what did it get come Old Trafford??? Bugger All as you said. Quins deserved to win....bottom line. Leeds' markers weren't working and it seemed alot of one man rugby. Hardly the stuff of champions.....Bad Bad Times.

Quote ="Kifaru"Quins are better at slowing the game down than ">Leeds.'" Actually I think the difference is in that we aren't fighting enough to get a quick PTB rather than Quins being better defensively. In the end the forwards arent running the ball in hard enough or quick enough at the moment and so very rarely make a dent in the line for the likes of Webb, Burrow etc to take advantage of. And we aren't working enough to get a quick PTB.

As with Salford, Quins were enthusiastic, they played simple rugby league and didn't make too many errors.



In contrast, Leeds:



Had no kicking game (or game plan at all for that matter).



Didn't offload.



Didn't back up.



Didn't defend well.



Played dull, ineffective one man rugby.



Seemed like they couldn't be ar5ed.



Looked absolutely knackered.

Quote ="Kifaru"So you agree Leeds were dominated around the ruck ">then.'" i would suggest they were dominated in every aspect of the game

Absolutely - a shift around/freshen up required
