Re: RD 1 | Leeds Rhinos v Hull FC : Mon Jan 27, 2020 12:35 pm  

For comparison this is how we lined up for the first game last year

Walker, T. Briscoe, Handley, Watkins, Hurrell, Lolohea, Myler, Cuthbertson, Parcell, Merrin, Ferres, Ward, L. Sutcliffe.

Replacements: Dwyer, Singleton, Donaldson, Oledzki.

Our halves and starting props are way way better this year

Re: RD 1 | Leeds Rhinos v Hull FC : Mon Jan 27, 2020 12:38 pm  

I believe Headingley taps is open from 10am. Head of Steam, Original Oak, The Box, Manahatta all open from 11am. Skyrack midday.

Looks like the South, North and West stands all sold out now and only standing tickets now available in the extentia stand. Less than a 1,000 tickets available.

I agree, Hull could be a great side this year if they click

I would love our opener to be a sell out crowd bit I fear that many ticket holders from Cas will not stay for the double header, should still be a good un though

I'm not so sure, Watkins was absolutely dire and clearly not fit this time last year (or perhaps at any point in the year), Briscoe I will grant you.
