He makes us tick as all good 7's do. Big lad McShane pretty integral to us too. Far from a 1 man team though.

Ive kept my powder dry on this but you are fu*king deluded if you think you are chance of A trophy without Gale.

Then or now? Cas are so unproven. Which unproven time in the past went on to trophies without doing the hard yards first! Just for the record making a CCF 3 years ago is hardly doing the hard yards.

I'm still to see Cas get battered and win.

back then. sinfield was that vital, as Gale is for cas now. lose him and they struggle big time.
be interesting to see how they cope with big games and relentless super 8's.
something they couldn't manage last year.
no doubt they are the team to beat now but prizes aren't handed out in may

Disagree. We win 5/7 last year in the super 8s. Losing 1 of the games in the last minute. I honestly believe Powell started the momentum for this season last year.

Fwiw I don't rate out chances in a final without Gale, but he's far from our only asset. Take Sneyd away from Hull, Williams from Wigan, Dobson / Lui from Salford , same applies. Not so sure who Leeds' mvp is, parcell maybe ?

possibly yes. however burrow can do a good job there. everything goes through gale.

Yep agree with all of that.

Only Aston available for Featherstone next week in the cup quarter final. Expecting Leeds to go same as Wakefield but wouldn't be surprised for Baldwinson & Ormondroyd to get a game. Wouldn't risk Burrow with his shoulder.

Golding
Briscoe Watkins Sutcliffe Hall
McGuire Moon
Garbutt Parcell Cuthbertson
Ablett Ward
JJB

Ferres Mullally Garbutt Galloway Ormondroyd Baldwinson

Any of the bottom six on the bench.

Re: CC QF | Leeds Rhinos v Featherstone Rovers : Sun Jun 11, 2017 6:30 pm  

Golding still didn't look fit, so I'd give Walker a game. I'd also consider resting Cuthbertson.

Re: CC QF | Leeds Rhinos v Featherstone Rovers : Sun Jun 11, 2017 6:59 pm  

Would like to see a 3/4 key men rested after the recent run of games.
