Quote ="TF and the wire"I remember the time it all went wrong in the GF against Leeds when Waterhouse dropped a pass 5 yards out with no one in front of him. I said then, we've blown it.'"
I watched that game back in the first lockdown and couldn’t believe we didn’t win it.
There’s a minute that killed us, we were 40 or so out and Briers is put under pressure on the last, so ends up chipping to the right wing. Leeds get it on half way or so, and they find Ablett one on one with Briers on our own line and he scores.
You can see Westwood stand over Briers and give it to him straight. That minute, we lost the game. It’s often said about staying in the arm wrestle and not breaking first, and we did by a panic under kick pressure and changed the momentum completely.
