I love the way we move it quickly and are always looking to make something happen and with Leeds so short st the back especially with Janssen going off we were always going to be dominant in the air.
I thought the ref stood up to their crowd and play acting really well, although Grujic owes him a pint !
Leeds going forward for spells in the first half were excellent and I thought down the right side we didn't defend very well at times. I'll be glad to see Peltier back even though it'll be tough on Manga who's playing out of position.
2nd half it was a shame we didn't really turn the screw, for some reason we got sloppy and panicky even at 3-0 and 3-1 up. Then last 10 minutes we turned the class back on. I think Leeds had run out of steam by then after a decent spell trying to get back in it with 10 men.
As well as strengthening our position we have also put Leeds in a position where they are 'almost' out of the hunt now.
Great noise from our boys up there and I was really happy to have my lad there as he's missed the last couple I've been on. Great excuse to give my 16 year old son a hug without embarrassing him when we scored 👍
