McDermott is going. I actually think he is more relaxed because of it, and seems to have let the shackles go. He apparently asked to finish the season, and that is what they agreed.
Perhaps my "belief" is based on the fact that St. Helens - not Leeds - are the reigning Super League Champions. In case you have forgotten, this club played far WORSE last season and yet still triumphed. I think it tells us something rather important about what this group of players is capable of when push comes to shove.
When push comes to shove, you mean like in a semi final for a place at Wembley?
It's hard to explain...I guess it's a bit like when as a gesture, Hull KR gave a squad number to that 14 year old kid who'd had a brain clot.
Anyway, I can tolerate Leeds fans ripping into Mugwump but getting a bit fed up at the swipes at Saints, even at our poor showing against South Sydney. Who did Leeds play in the WCC earlier this year, I can't remember?
