No. But Leeds always seem to be able to pull a performance out of thin air against form teams so who knows?

Hopefully we see a change in attitude and approach. Forwards hitting the line hard getting over the gain line and defence moving up quickly together not giving up cheap yards. No trick plays in own half and a strong completion rate and at least 50% territory in the game with some structure to our attack when we are in the opposition 20 and have earned the right to play!
If we deliver that and get beat I am happy and you have to say well played Huddersfield!

Hope Jake Connor plays, on his day a brilliant footballer. Whatever he does is always entertaining one way or another. Amused to see him at Hull the other week wanting a confrontation with Sao. Not a very wise thing to undertake.

Cannot see that happening, far too sensible game plan!

If we harbor top 4 hopes (which we should do given the recruitment drive and by GH's own admission in pre season) then tonight needs to be a game we win, even at this early-ish stage because of the back to back losses.

Definitely, we need to get on top right from the kick off. Certain players who haven’t performed this season need to stand up and be counted. I think we will win.

In true reverse psychology approach...
I'm going to predict we get hammered!

2 weeks to prepare for this, the squad bigging it up, bit of a “time to put up or shut up”
Tonights game really could make or break this season and a significant impact going forward.

Is the 6 again no longer a thing?

It seems to be rarer this year
