I said after the cats game that Leeds are weak in the forwards, how they miss Barrie Mac. Would he have spent 5 minutes apologising to every player on the pitch like Burgess did after his accidental high tackle? When Bailey flattened Mary he spent 5 minutes telling everyone it was his shoulder that had done it. Even JP seems off colour for the first time in memory. Unluckily for you though their backs, apart from Gibson who is way below top of SL level, are way better than yours ATM.

So you are saying that we won't get as badly hammered as we all know we will?

I think you will raise your game, as you inevitably do against Leeds, but I don't think it will be enough. I've never called for Mac's head but a new coach would give that extra incentive that is needed, otherwise it's the same old same old. What you do need, & I might have mentiond this before, is a scrum half. FFS put Jeffries there & play Menzies at 6. Christ, Wigan are taking Gleeson, Wire taking Mathers!!!, someone must be stupid enough to take Deacon.

No - what he is saying is we are still going to be hammered but at least we have some impressive skilful tries to look forward to

I'm taking 8 people who've never been to a RL match to the game on Friday.

I might tell them beforehand that the Bulls play in blue and amber

If your bro wears his Rhinos top you might just sneak it.

You are never going to let him forget that, are you...?

He's not going unfortunately (or perhaps fortunately for him). Perhaps I can convince them to stay and watch it in the Red Lion, especially if it's raining

I remember getting talked out of that one. Still not dried out.
