One for tvoc....when was the last time sinfield didn't score a point....

Bradford

Bradford away over easter.

Bet it's a hell of a time since he didn't score at Headingley though...

Silly me of course....but yes I bet it's time at headingley

I make it first time since 21-4 home defeat to Harlequins on 24th April 2009, he missed his one conversion attempt of a last minute Rob Burrow try.



So not as long ago as I would have guessed...tvoc, do you agree?

Regardless of not scoring tonight, I think he's been in poor form by his standards for a while now. No lack of effort or application, but lack of technique and poor decision making from the skipper.



Is he trying too hard?

The pack not giving him much of a platform can't be helping. However his defense has been all at sea so far this season.

Kev's amazing but he's played nearly every single minute of every single game for the past two seasons. That's been in no way necessary, and is a resource-management failure.

I do. You may kiss the enthusiastic but amateur statistician.



The time prior to last night and that game above in 2009 it was in a 26-24 win V Bradford in 2006 with Burrow taking on the kicking duties after Sinfield had hobbled off after a collision with Terry Newton and Jamie Langley. It must have been a real bad one as Sinfield missed the entire next game.



[i'Bradford were leading 24-20 going into the final minute when quick hands by Ali Lauitiiti, Keith Senior, Mark O'Neill and Chev Walker worked the ball right and Scott Donald dived jubilantly over at the corner for his second try of the game to level the scores. With skipper Kevin Sinfield off the field injured, Rob Burrow was on goal-kicking duty. He had earlier missed twice from wide out, before landing two more straight-forward efforts. This was the most difficult of the lot, but the scrum-half kept his nerve to land a truly sensational touchline goal to edge Leeds two points ahead. Bradford failed to gather the ball from their short re-start and the hooter sounded as referee Phil Bentham signalled the scrum.'[/i

McDermott had that Quins side playing pretty well that year. Remember they were great defensively that night, or perhaps Leeds were poor offensively.

Re-Sinfield missing kicks - I'm just glad I decided against mentioning that he'd been successful with his last twenty prior to the game. Wouldn't have wanted that on my conscience.
