That the win percentage is higher against lower placed teams? No, no surprise at all, are you new to sport in general? What's the next shocking ground braking revelation? Teams at the bottom concede more try's than the teams at the top???

Probably explains why Leeds targeted the signing of Willie Tonga.

A better and PROPER way to look at it would be

Anyway you look at it his absence negatively effects Leeds, but thanks for teeing up my point.

Staggering discussion. Trully staggering.

this is sport. Not just sport, rugby league. teams can turn up and beat other teams. It happens.

No player goes onto a rugby league field trying to lose - Leeds finished fifth because their squad isn't that deep in terms of TOP players. Come the play-offs, they were more or less at full strength.

If they save themselves for the big games, how come they've lost so many CC finals?

I've never known a sport where you can "toss it off" for 95% of the season then beat the best teams in the league playing so well.

It really does reek of bitterness. Just ride the wave!!! My team were one the best in the late 60's and early 90's (in terms of success) - Wakefield in the mid 60's, Wigan in the 90's, Saints in the late 90's to early 200's Leeds are having theirs from the early 2000's til now! It won't last for the next thousand years, but that's sport. Some teams are exceptional in some eras, and in given cicrumstances.

MEMO TO MR EVE aka MR SWIFTCORN


Having spent alot of time reading your constant depressing drivel over the last few years, it's quite clear that you are a very sad, lonely person. I find it quite amusing that you tend to 'disapear' after Leeds have won something, yet spend the rest of your life trying to put the Rhinos down in any way you see fit.
Im quite sure you realise how disliked you are on this forum, Im also sure you enjoy it as most of the garbage you post is done so to get a reaction. 99.9% of the posters on here are genuine Leeds fans(i'll let you guess at the 0.01%), so why don't you do us all a favour and jog on to the pies board I think you'll fit in perfectly over there. One thing though you need to change your user name (again) I think KEYBOARD WARRIOR fits you like a glove!!
