Positives...

[RonnieGibbs'forearm]

Still top 3 as it stands...
Calum Turner :clap:
Matautia continues to be quality and shows versatility.
Millo came good second half and made me eat my words to an extent (although first half he looked shot again).
Eden did loads of work second half in yardage. Only three quarter to get us on front foot.
Cooky :clap: :clap:
Showed some fight at least and barring the awful decision making at the end would have been very different.
As bad as we were we could have won it.
Plenty of time to fix things, improve, make signings :pray:
Extra days rest.
What better way to put it right than to have a crack at the cheating filth down the lane.

Turner full back matautia centre was the best positive looking to games ahead
Wattsy didn't deserve to be on a losing side
Millington looked absolutely shot after ten minutes but dug deep in his sen and carried it up second half
Must be nearly time for Clark and Mckmeeken to come back
Friday will be a toxic atmosphere should lift players
Away end looked full still great support for the lads

Thought peanut went to halfback, mcshane went to dummy half?

[gateman]

Game of two half's awful first have the second have we looked a different team after a couple of changes winning it 16-1 as its been said to many players sat in the stand apart from Massey I can see any of them being back anytime soon

[tigerfeat]

Did he worked a lot better anyway when Powell made the change

[heritage1926]

Also, just watched the game back this morning, McShanes 'elbow fend' could see him cop a game ban. Didn't think there was much in it at full speed, then when it was slowed down didn't look great.

[TT Tiger]

Could be wrong but looked like they were defending peanut, foster, minikin, Clare.

[Black n Amber]

The only positives I took from last night was at 4-20 down we could of waved the white flag and rolled over, we didn’t, we have arguably the best front rower in the comp at the moment in Wattsy, he’s certainly in the discussion, Christ knows where we’d be without him, and Cal Turner added some much needed speed and elusiveness to what is without doubt the slowest inept back line in Super League.

[flow]

not too much to be positive about rhinos worst team in league at the minute . Watts outstanding again cant see powell changing any thing soon pete will go back to fullback against wigan even that we looked more balanced team with turner at full back second half. trueman being disappointing last few games no confident to take on line and kicking game is very poor. I fear the worse if we don't make at leat two decent signings but then again we probably left it too late to sign any body decent the great gamble doing it on the cheap is hurting us now and not payed off.

Mata’utia when to centre Minikin and Clare sharing wing spot at same time stopped the ovetlap

[St Albans tiger]

McShane played dummy half all game -regardless of where he was meant to be.

[mart0042]

It's clear that we should give Turner a shot and put peanut to right centre.

It’s clear to us mart, not to daryll.
When minikin and Clare last played together and made a shambles of it, I said we’d never see them again as a partnership. How wrong I was.

[heritage1926]

You don't put Minikin and Clare against Hurrell at the best of times, never mind when both are out of sorts.

Us fans always reckon we know best at games, but we all watch the same game as the coaching staff, so why can we see things that they can't?

[tigerfeat]

Turner will be a excellent full-back in time that he got a chance last night when he could have gone through the season and not had any chance would be a massive positive ....that's if Powell don't send him back to fev like

One of the problems we have i think that relates to the right hand side is. We have a very good FB and and very fine young FB (Eng under 19) but both can play at same time in that position.

So do we go

Turner
New winger/Minikin/Clare
Mata’utia
Shenton
Eden

or

Mata’utia
New winger/Minikin/Clare
New Centre
Shenton
Eden

I'd like to think that's what the people at the club are mulling over right now. Which way to go.

[old cas lass]

For now it should be.

Turner
Minikin
Matautia
Shenton
Eden.

Until we bring someone in I’d use that formation.
It’s a center we need ASAP.

[Andrew6666]

I just don't see any positives. We all know what these players are capable of. Again we have 1 position that we are weak in, which stops us from pushing on. Losing to 'that' Leeds side is appalling. If teams like that can exploit us so easily in our weakest position, then the good sides will really exploit us and put big points on us. The right edge needs fixing fast, if those 2 start next game then we all know where the opposition attacks are going, we all know the result.

Turner needed games and has got them at Fev. This should be his chance to deal the position. Peanut has been great but it's needed in the centres.

[Flat Capper]

It's easy to pick fault when we lose, particularly in spectacular circumstances like this game but even during the first half I thought Cas were better at bringing the ball out of their 20. More often than not we made it over the half way and only the lack of half-backs prevented us from piling on the pressure to get back-to-back sets.

It was a definite change of tactic though, utilising the good old five drives and a kick but for me, this is what tired out the Leeds team and in turn, that allowed us to be more expansive in the second half, which we dominated.

End of the day we lost cos of a massive brain fart from Macca but I'm putting that down to a one-off from a player who wins us far more games than he loses.
