I need something to take my mind off what I've just seen today so here we go it's the big one on Friday and our annual trip over to Headingley for a game that is must win now if we are to even make a go of the playoffs with Hull FC 3 points clear.

Lose this and Hull FC pick up the points at Belle Vue on Sunday then it really is season over (I won't admitt it just yet).

With the game not being on Sky it would be nice to see the Western Terrace full of Red, Amber and Black.

Must win fixture.

Today was a must win fixture at home, and they couldn't be a***d. Why will Friday be any different? Oh yes, it's Leeds, so some of the players might put in a little bit of an effort. But it's going to be another embarrassing defeat to kick start the Rhinos momentum going into the end of the season.

Form counts for nothing come Friday. The Leeds defence has been outstanding during the last couple of games. Against Crusaders we repelled them on our own goal line time and time again. However our attack is poor.

Leeds will put 30+ past us, to think anything else is optimism the likes of which I just can't reach.

I think we will put in a good performance against Leeds but doubt the 2 points will come our way. Ah Van should be dropped pure and simple. He has an edge of complacency in his game and against Saints last week and Hull this, he has been dreadful.

Despite how bad we played today no way will Leeds put 30+ past us on Friday.

I'll remember that and take no pleasure in quoting you after the match on Friday night.
