There is nothing arrogant in expecting a particular level of competitive ability on the pitch, which apart from the first 40 minutes in the Wigan match, has so far been lacking in our other games.

Common sense dictates that for a variety of reasons your team will not hit the heights in every game, but I personally wonder if those numpties who witter on about not expecting to win every game, are really happy to accept mediocrity as the standard at Headingley.

It's early doors, but hopefully things will improve.

Over to you, Bluey


Having said that, when Wigan were winning everything in sight in the 80s / 90s, they didn't seem to have much problem with winning most games .... Usually playing (towards the end of a season) between two or three games a week.

Playing the devil's advocate, it could be argued that we should be aiming for that sort of form. After all, one of their straplines from that period was that 'winning was habit forming'

So 10 fixtures into the new season 8 Super League, 1 World Club Challenge And 1 Challenge Cup i am hoping that there is still more to offer in our performances and we are still waiting to see the type of Rugby League we have come to expect from the Leeds Rhinos, I think i can honestly say that we haven't performed to the level we have shown in previous seasons so far this year and i don't know whether this comes from the intensity and improved workrate of the opposition or if the players just expect to turn up and have the two points in the bag but hopefully things will come together soon...
Is it just me or do the defeats seem to hurt more than ever after two consecutive Grand Final victories?, Have we become more arrogant and expect the team to win every game they play?...


For putting that godawful Eminem song into my head, I should hunt you down and put drawing pins under your toenails.

Is it possible that having full-time players and a big squad contributed to that?

The simple fact is we could play like this every week and still meet Saints in the grand final, it's what we do then that will define our season.
