After the high of last week I’m giving myself a reality check. We’ve averaged just less than 9 points a game across the last 3 matches, and that really needs to improve. Last week showed just how important the kick chase is in attack, and we need to stay focused in that area. Any decent aerial attacking kick within 30 metres needs bodies on the end of it, not just around opponents, up in the air challenging them. If we’re not gonna be productive attacking through the hands, we’ve sure as hell got to take advantage of at last having a player with an actual kicking game and some three quarters who are decent in the air. Gannon’s also a big athlete if he can get involved in that area. Needless to say, a defensive performance like last week is also gonna give us a decent chance.
From what I can tell from the disciplinary notes Palaasia isn't even mentioned. Dufty and Vaughan are the only players named from the Wire game. Not sure if that means sin binning was sufficient or that he has been found blameless?

Means there was absolutely nothing with it. As everyone with eyes already knew
The initial reaction of the Sky commentators was that it was a good legal hit.
On the slow motion replay Palasia's head is impacted first. I don't know if this is significant but it suggests it's a little more complicated than Palasia being a straightforward aggressor.
In the aftermath of the tackle I thought the referee might have awarded us something because of Fitzgibbon looking for 'afters'.

What's frustrating for me is how well we played, to come up with nothing... Oh well, if they keep it up we should be able to see more wins in due course. You never know with Leeds though.
