Leeds Rhinos v Wakefield Wildcats Match Thread : Sat Feb 07, 2009 12:03 pm  

We had quite a few threads for the Celtic game, so just keep it to one.
Going for a 30+ point victory, I expect to see us perform for the whole 80 next week, not just the 1st half an hour. Depends who's back if changes are made, Buderus said he should be back for next week in his interview, but I'd start Disko, assuming Burrow is back as well this would be my line up:

3. Smith
2. Donald
23. Watkins
4. Senior
5. Hall
6. McGuire
7. Burrow
8. Leulaui
14. Diskin
10. Peacock
11. JJB
12. Ali
13. Sinfield

9. Buderus
17. Kirke
18. Ablett
19. Burgess

If Eastwood does arrive I'd put him on the bench for Kirke or Ablett.

I'd agree with that mate!
Although i think wakey will be tougher than you give them credit for.

Brough's the danger man - he's injured. I don't see too much in the Wakey squad this year, but we need to put in a better performance than yesterday.

can't see eastwood playing even if he arrives today, he'll need/be given a couple weeks in training before he'll get a game.

and for me ablett to start in the 2nd row, ali on the bench

I agree. Ablett is a very good backrow forward and should be in ahead of Kirke every time. I hink he will be the natural successor for the 13 jersey.

I agree they will be bang up for it and the squad they put out will be 100% fit so will be a tough first 60 mins.

I'd expect Leeds to get in front and stay in front ending 28 - 18.

I can't get past the bar without being drawn towards it for a pint of Carlsberg.............then having my ear chewed off about how the lagers "good this week because blah blah blah" by the head barman!
That'll teach my mate for complaining.......we've been sentenced to a life of mindless piffle..............before we even get to our seats!
