Well yes, thats probably the most reason thing you managed to argue,
Your opinion on Leeds, Mcguire and who was the best team doesnt matter, Leeds won the game, and they have won the comp 3 times in a row, they have proved beyond doubt that they are an awesome squad, and they are quality. They have proved it.

I agree. What i dont agree with is the s who wont hear anything bad said about the likes of Ablett, Kirke and Bailey. Who at best are just plodders!
But hey they was part of a winning Grand final team so they must be absolute quality. Wish we had Ricky Bibey and Anthony Stewart back, we'd soon win our trophy back.

Is Brian McClennan a fec[ik[/iwit?
Quote "Carl Ablett is very understated. He's got great footwork. We haven't had him on the pitch much this year and we've really missed him." '"
Quote Carl is an integral player in our team which has been shown over the past few seasons with his consistency and versatility. His best years are still ahead of him.'"
Quote "He is a very athletic and skilful player and he has even played at stand-off for us," said the Leeds coach, Brian McClennan. "Last year we were able to play him in his preferred position of second-row and I think he has just got better and better."'"
This proves beyond all doubt that chief scout is a complete fookin gomper.

WRONG WRONG WRONG and WRONG again!!
Why is it so hard to understand?
The best team is the one that scores the most points. They have scored more points because they are the better team.
It really is that simple and only a true idiot will fail to see it.

See what i mean. You get so defensive about your world class players, you go looking for quotes.
The truth is Ablett is not top 4 quality. He'll be on little money and does a plodders job for you. What do you want Mclennan to say ? If anything it proves that Mclennan realises most people think his sh*t.

Leeds have squad, it has proved over the last 6 years to be the best squad in the league, Ablett, and Bailey arent bit part players in this squad, they are integral parts,
Bailey hasnt won 2 Challenge Cups, He has won 4 grand finals, he has won 2 LL shields and 2 WCC. He has been picked by 3 international coaches, (Noble, Smith and Mclennan)
Carl Ablett has won 3 GFs by the age of 24, playing in 2 different positions (centre, and 2nd row)
it is the quality of these players which has been the difference between leeds and the rest
most people will accept that Kirke is a squad player who sometimes gives us a lot, others not so much

1999 Grand final says it all really. A couple of key decisions went our way (Pryce knock)we won the game, scored the most points but only a idiot would say that the Bulls wasent the better team.

Yet even when we have JJB, Ali, and Eastwood available for the 2nd row, a place is still found for our Carl.

Mike Bennett ring any bells ? He kept a Kiwi international out of our 2006 team (Vinnie Anderson). Yet Mike was a hard working plodder, a Tim Jonkers type of player. Just like Ablett.

"Our trophy" ?? Really?? You genuinely think that? Last I heard, the RFL owns the trophy, and the Grand Final winners get to borrow it each year. It just so happens, Leeds have been borrowing it for the past 3 years, despite being beset with distinctly average players all over the pitch - remarkable really.....
Perhaps though, if it genuinely does belong to Saints, Leeds should be investigated for theft, as well as for having cruel fans who mercilessly taunt ugly ginger prop forwards. Jeez, some big fines coming our way soon!!

NO - the best team is the one with the most points on the board - period, end of.
This is absolute, indisputable, irrefutable.
Regardless of how either side played, the better team is the one that won the game.
God... it like trying to educate pork.

Anderson made more appearances in the two seasons he was there, than bennett did, He played 17 and 23 games, Bennett played 25 and 6.
Ablett played 29 games in 2008, and 22 in 2009.

Dont Leeds fans always say stats mean nothing ? On that note i find it rather sad you've botherd looking that up. On a side not Mike Bennett sufferd a number of Shoulder injuries in them 2 years which forced an early retirement.
When both fit (2006 grand final etc...) Bennett played.

So you just made up the bit about Bennett regularly keeping Anderson out of the side then?

'"
As much as it pains me to dispute anything negative about the insidious individual Pryce, the 2005 Grand Final would, sadly, like to disagree with you. Mind, that was five years ago and it was under Noble's masterstroke of playing him on the wing giving him freedom to drift in and out of the game when he wanted. Like he does nowadays, though mainly he drifts out of them.
Quote Here's another thing for sure, even on the assumption that somebody else would have been there for the two, as you put it, "walk ins", we would have lost the game without McGuire. He created the opening for his own second try and passed to Hall for our fourth. '" Sorry about this but it was Buderus who passed to Hall.

'" Bailey has played international rugby and is one of the best props in the league. I appreciate you won't share that opinion but many who know a bit more about rugby than you would disagree.
Ablett is one of the first names on our team sheet and, IMO, may well go on to international honours. He is far from a plodder.
Kirke aspires to be a plodder.
