Yep, utterly outplayed, and whilst the possession stats will favour us at times, at no time did we look like winners. Mistake no 1 was leaving Phillips on the bench - the gaping hole in front of the back 4 was an invitation to push us back, and meant the backline had to play it out, which they did in a very panicky fashion. Mistake no 2 was not playing Douglas and Alioski as 3 and 11 from the start, although it has to be said that when Douglas did come on he was way off the pace! It didn’t help that Hernandez had his worst 45 minutes for a long time, or Ayling’s insistence on passing to the opposition!
It’s pointless panicking now, but today it was men against boys, and the boys won. I felt sorry for Clarke too - he’s not the messiah and the weight of expectation on him is too much. And the bloody Rhinos got dicked as well! Not a good day for Leeds!
