Playoffs 2012

[Didgi]

Wigan and Saints through to week three so far, Warrington and Catalan to play the winners of Leeds/Wakefield and Hull/Huddersfield.

Rhinos v Wakey has been a decent game so far, some sharp ball movement, good kicking and reasonably high standard. Would like to see those Leeds backs fire up though.

lol... and as a I type that Kallum Watkins beats two or three to put Burrow over.

 

[Didgi]

Wakefield back in front in a see-sawing game.

 

[Didgi]

Hall takes an intercept on his own line, only denied by a great tackle from Washbrook. BJB finishes it off in the next play off Sinfield's kick to space. 18-16 Leeds.

 

[Didgi]

Danny McGuire in off a nippy bit of work from Burrow, now Hardaker accelerates straight through the Wakey defence to go the length of the field. Leeds running away with it now.

 

[Didgi]

After a hit-back from Ali Lauitiiti and a bombed chance by Washbrook BJB is in for his second for Leeds. Game wrapped up.

 

[Didgi]

Watkins' and Leeds' class is showing. BJB gets a hat-trick.

The 3 team stranglehold just goes on and on.

No commentary at all, intermittent sound and a lovely period of the french speaking commentary. How is it Australian tv networks can f&ck up a seemingly simple parallel broadcast of sky sports coverage?

Surprised by wire's installment as favourites. There's maybe a reason no one has done the double in this format.

Sure they will be back. They've got a great coach, squad and must be getting playoff experience that pundits seem to imply they lack Catalans were disappointing, but will surely provide a sterner test at home for Leeds.

All in all though. Would have to agree that this season hasn't been particularly memorable. Lets hope hull v huddersfield and next weeks games can provide a bit more excitement

Wigan v Catalan was garbage

Warrington v Saints was a bit scrappy but a decent game.

Leeds v Wakey was thoroughly enjoyable, a really good contest until the 70th minute when Wakey bombed a try, Watkins was great for Leeds.

I expect Hull v Giants to be a top game.

Giants let themselves down really. Still good to have Hull at the business end.

Great game in France. Leeds raised their game again, I thought, usual suspects Sinfield, Peacock and Burrow excellent.

I enjoyed the game but i thought the interchange bench players made the difference for Leeds, all four were outstanding.
I still don't know why they don' give Watkins more ball.
