moore will get plenty of game time this week

Quote ="tvoc"By which set of criteria? Halifax made one play-off series in six attempts, London have so far made two in fifteen. Both have played two play-off games - both have lost two play-off games. Halifax's average SL regular round finish was 7.88, London's is 8.24. Halifax's win % was 36 London's is 39 Halifax's average SL result was 22 - 28, London's is 22 - 26 Halifax's average SL home attendance was 4,724, London's is 3,669 Doesn't appear to be a great deal to choose between the ">two.'" Only one of them however managed to both go bust and lose points for salary cap infringements in the same year, and only one of them finished a 28 game league season on 0 points.

London were trailing 26-0 with about 15-20 mins to go. They were 40 metres from our try line and on the last tackle what did they do? A big bomb with a gutsy chase? No. A little dink over seeing as we weren't operating a sweeper? no. Anything attacking minded? No. They drilled it into touch to play the clock down. Leeds wanted a solid win, they got that. London played to keep the scoreboard down, they did that too. 2 content parties at the end of the evening.

We won't get another easier match this year. Our under 19's would have beat that London side on Friday, and perfectly illustrated how ridiculous it was not to have made changes last week and rotated players.

Leeds in second gear, that's all they needed to be. Both teams went through the motions. Singleton caught the eye with a busy spell. Least JP came off.....twice as well !

So earlier when you said Quote ="SmokeyTA"However bad London are they are nowhere near as bad as Halifax[u were in SL[/u. '" you meant that London are nowhere near as bad as when Halifax were at their lowest ebb in their final season of six in 2003. And yet when you take a broader view and look at the averages over several seasons you see two clubs with reasonable similar stats. Harlequins/London in the last three completed seasons have ended their campaigns with 13, 14, 13 comp points, Halifax bettered those returns in every season bar 2003 that they competed in SL. I agree that the rot had set in and Halifax's time was up in 2003 as they lost their SL place to Salford but feel they had made a contribution on the field to SL prior to that not least the 3rd place Regular Round finish in 1998 - but an inability to draw the crowds or a wealthy benefactor left them teetering.
