A shift to a more attacking style of play is at the heart of a blistering start to the season that has got people sitting up and taking notice of Leeds Tykes once again – and for the right reasons at long last.
After more than a decade of decline that has seen three relegations, two rebrands and one near-extinction, the club that once won the Powergen Cup at Twickenham is looking upwards once more. For Leeds have begun their first season in National Two North – the fourth tier of the English rugby pyramid – with eight wins out of eight, scoring a bonus point for four tries in every game and amassing 346 points in the process.
” On the team’s potent attacking threat, Brady explained: 'There’s been a big emphasis on our attack. When Mike took over and Pete Lucock came in, that was the key area we felt we needed to address. 'They’ve spent all summer working out a way they wanted us to attack and tried to implement that with different theories, looking at how it might fit in with the players we’ve got. 'The players are really enjoying the coaching sessions and the intensity we’re training at.
