I feel Leeds have the best pack strength in SL, especially with their quality of interchange players. It is in this area that the game will be won or lost.
If our forward lose that battle upfront, there is a danger that the speed in their backs could cause us serious problems.
If we can close down their forwards we can win the half-back battle, especially with our superior kicking game.
Even if we can hold them attack they still have a formidable defence and it will take all the guile of Drew , slipperyness of Obst and top notch support play to breach it.
This is probably the most appropriate time (if there is such a thing) to play Leeds and sheer strength of desire could be deciding factor in our favour.
