I thought these two deserve to be singled out for praise today. Wilkin was given such an important role and could easily have just sat back and allowed Leon to lead, but he stepped up and had a massive influence on us today. His kicking, bar one stray bomb, was exemplary. His defense was also very mean and he continues his stellar form this season. Anyone still not rate him?



And our friend Francis eh? What about that? We all thought he was sat on a deck chair in New Zealand not wanting to return. But he must have spent the past 6 months catching bombs and he returned them with interest today.

Wilkin ! Awesome Today.

Wilkin was superb today, kicked us to death to be honest. And Meli looked alot stronger under the high ball, albeit not under as much pressure as usual.

Wilkin was superb,,,Top notch performance,,,And Meli,yes you expect him to drop a couple of bombs but today he returned with interest...

Both were excellent today.

Jon Wikin is a challenge cup hero, there's no doubting Meli's abilities in big games, its his apparant lack of motivation for the other games that annoys me.

I've said it time and time again. Jon Wilkin needs to be given more responsibility to bring out the best in him. Well done Wilko!!!

i thought no sean long = leeds by 16 ??

I factored in rain

Hows Kevin Walters getting on mate?

Is he not getting the sack ?

I think we have today put rest the debate over who can take over from sean long.

and as for meli, he is back and at his best...... For now

As some will have seen I asked about your opinions on Wilkin on our board. Thought he was superb today, really stepped up and controlled the game for you guys. Hats off to him.



I just fear that's the end of the CC this year now with you guys having a stroll to the cup, with Hull out today as well looks even more likely.



Congrats guys, it'll have to be next year for us now.
