I guess it depends if our pack turns up. Huby is a huge loss for us, so the other guys need to step up.

How long is Walker out for?

I seriously doubt it - there'll probably be 9k in with it being on TV. Can't remember the last time we got a five-figure crowd with this one televised.

Don't think we'll match the Good Friday attendance which will have included a lot of casual fans who wont have been encouraged to return anytime soon, especially for a televised game. Leeds will obviously bring two or three times more fans than Wakey but I'll be surprised if we top 8k.

Looking forward to the trip, my first visit over for a few years. Can't really predict if we will win or not, but you guys certainly
have the quality to put us away

Let's not get too hung up about how many turn up, it's scores on the pitch that matter!

Despite our poor early season form, I'd expect the Rhinos to show their class, and kick on from a good Easter, to be 14/18 points ahead at the final whistle.

I would love that to be the case but IF Leeds do manage to win it won't be by much. We have had good Easter against Bradford and crusaders, with what I have seen of cas they will be a much better team than we have faced over Easter

Come on Cas, you can do them.
Cas 24-18

Can't pick this, if Cas are going to win I would expect double figures. If Leeds are within 10 at the hour mark, I would expect them to overturn us.

This is the closest Leeds game on paper for some seasons, I often think that teams are at their worst the week after Easter, especially if you had a bad time like we did. On paper (again not that games are played on paper) this all points to our worst performance of the season at the moment, we're hurt, got injuries and feel a little bit sorry for ourselves and we got through Monday on adrenalin but without the euphoria at the end.

Either team by 12.

Does anyone know where we could get some quality printed mugs if we did win?

I'd be straight on to the marketing depatrment at Wakefield.

Leeds looking strong. Coming off the back of 2 wins over Easter and they can name their 1-17 minus only Ali Lauititi in the initial squad.
McGuire & Peacock back is a huge boost for them.

1. Brent Webb
2. Lee Smith
3. Brett Delaney
4. Keith Senior
5. Ryan Hall
6. Danny McGuire
7. Rob Burrow
8. Kylie Leuluai
9. Danny Buderus
10. Jamie Peacock
11. Jamie Jones-Buchanan
12. Carl Ablett
13. Kevin Sinfield
15. Ben Cross
16. Ryan Bailey
17. Ian Kirke
18. Luke Burgess
21. Chris Clarkson
24. Paul McShane

Not sure Lauitiiti would get in anyway. Saying that BJB would be on the wing and Watkins would be at centre if he was fit so were still a couple short of being at full strength. Still, its the best team weve been able to field in close to 12 months. Things are looking up! I'd go...

1. Brent Webb

2. Lee Smith
3. Brett Delaney
4. Keith Senior
5. Ryan Hall

6. Danny McGuire
7. Rob Burrow

16. Ryan Bailey
9. Danny Buderus
8. Kylie Leuluai
11. Jamie Jones-Buchanan
12. Carl Ablett
13. Kevin Sinfield

IC
10. Jamie Peacock/17. Ian Kirke (depending on JP's actual fitness)
18. Luke Burgess
24. Paul McShane
21. Chris Clarkson

--------------------------

10. Jamie Peacock/17. Ian Kirke (depending on JP's actual fitness)
15. Ben Cross

19 now named. Nathan Massey is drafted in to replace Craig Huby while there's still no Willie Isa and Ryan McGoldrick is included for the first time this season. Having missed the trip to Saints, Nick Fozzard & Daryl Clark are again missing

1. Richard Mathers
2. Kirk Dixon
4. Joe Arundel
5. Richard Owen
6. Rangi Chase
7. Danny Orr
8. Paul Jackson
9. Ryan Hudson
11. Jake Emmitt
12. Steve Snitch
13. Brett Ferres
14. Stuart Jones
16. Adam Milner
20. Martin Aspinwall
21. Nathan Massey
22. Jordan Thompson
23. Ryan McGoldrick
24. Oliver Holmes
25. Dean Widders

i think walker as just started training again.

my tigers line-up would be:-
1. mathers

22. thompson
4. arundel
2. dixon
5. owen

6. chase
7. orr

8. jackson
9. hudson
12. snitch

13. ferres
14. jones

20. aspinwall

bench:-
11. emmitt
16. milner
21. massey
25. widders

Massey & McGoldrick to miss out for me but that then leaves us desperately short on props. It'd be Jackson & Emmitt starting with a bench of a hooker plus three back rowers.

The forwards looking a little weakened now that Fozzard is missing as well as Chubs. Coupled with Peacock back for Leeds, could be a worrying weak point for us.

Yeah, plus even if JP doesnt make it we have 6 props named in the 19, all of which are pretty decent. Looking at the 2 teams its the 1st time I have been excited about us in a fair while now.

Any idea what's wrong with Foz and Clark?

That's definitely the weakest looking 19 we've named all season.

None Bonzo. Had assumed on Monday that they were rested but it seems not.

More excited than when you played the Crusaders on Monday ?

Much... although as that was the return of the massiah I attended

You mean Messiah and was that Danny McGuire you refer to as the Messiah ?

I may have meant that yes... and it was indeed



Too busy banning people instead of paying attention to spelling

I was talking about the royal wedding, what are you guys talking about?

If Goldy is fit i would bring him back. ive got a feeling he will be looking to prove himself, plus dixon needs to go back to wing for me.

My team

Mathers
Dixon
McG
Arundel
Owen
Rangi
Orr
Jackson
Hudson
Emmitt
Ferres
Aspinwall
Jones

Snitch to play prop
Holmes
Milner
Widders or Massey
