Watching Warrington vs Leeds in the ESL tonight Warrington scored 3 tries in the first 10 minutes and were ahead 18 after 10 minutes. What an amazing start to a game. I don't think it would happen in the NRL. The standard of play was so bad, they would get smashed by any NRL team down here, even Parra is better than these two.
Leeds are on a downward spiral due to older players and will struggle to make the 8. The team to watch is Wigan, a fortnight ago they had the majority of there starting pack on the side lines and put 50 on Leeds. Think we could possible see a side that might do the treble with them - Challenge Cup, ESL and WCC. [hr] As for the standard of play it's different to the NRL. It's more attack orientated then the NRL
They played their best game of the year that night in Leeds, urged on by a massive chanting / singing home crowd (we could learn a lot from their crowd). I have watched a few ESL games since then and they have been a shadow of themseleves on that night.
Its funny over here when a club is under performing the coach is the first one to go, over there they are looking at the players.
