I'm sure I saw Rob Burrow in Mothercare down at Crown Point, so maybe he's got a pair as well....

If any of our forwards wear them they need a dry slap.
I once took the proverbial out of Ian Kirke for wearing them in the bar after a harlequins game darn sarf. True story.

If the ipitch is an issue - so much so that the RFl have said that players are allowed to wear protective clothing, I wouldn't have an issue with the whole team wearing them. I have to say, I have grown quite accustomed to the skin on my knees and elbows.

If our captain decides he wants to wear tight, then all the team should wear them. If he does not wear them, then the rest of the team should not wear them.

I'm torn on this. On the one hand our elite professionals should not have to put up with bad pitches and any more pain than is a necessary part of the game. On the other though thousands of amateurs play on rock hard pitches all summer long, and just get on with it. At training in mid june theres not a player with unscabbed knees and elbows. They should just man the hell up for one game

To be honest, I couldn't really care less if they wear suspenders and garters so long as they win.

Seconded, tights are for women and in the rugby world wingers and maybe a fullback, a centre at a push.
I cant imagine the ipitch is much worse than playing in the sand/ice that normally makes up headingly early in the season, they didn't wear them then and probably wont now.
We could always not get tackled and score on the first tackle every time, we hammer them and no player gets cut knees, win win

LEEDS are to follow Salford's example by wearing body skins at Widnes on Sunday.
Reds lost two players in last weekend's game on the synthetic pitch despite the extra protection.
Now two more are being treated for ligament injuries.
Salford coach Phil Veivers said: "Players reported difficulties changing direction when flat out.
"Widnes have their own injuries
Leeds will take no chances though.

I don't get this macho 'man-up'/'no-pain-no gain' attitude.
In any other industry both employers and employees have a shared responsible to ensure their own safety when working with hazardous materials.
Surely, if the I-pitch carries extra risk (and there's no evidence yet that it doesn't) then players are entitled to protect themselves against that (perceived) risk.
