| Is Rubber Duckie a troll or does he just spout that much crap on a daily basis that he starts to believe it?

He's the reincarnation of Nostradumus. He makes that many bold predictions that eventually something will stick and sound vaguely similar to something he predicted. If you read what he put before the CC and GF last season, he defiantly stated they couldn't lose either.

I totally agree. I was just hoping they'd turn out alright.

My reasoning was that Roberts must have been holding something, there was no way he could be that shat...well he was.

| Duckie is sound. He doesn't get everything right, but he does get some very interesting stuff right. I've had a few pms from him and they've been spot on.
COYW- what a great start to the season.

I agree. I thought he was solid but his last tackle plays weren't great. The kick to Lineham near me went about 2 metres over the touch line. Overall though a reasonable performance and hopefully something to build on.

| Quote ="Saddened!"Very poor game I thought, after the two excellent Sky games the previous nights. Leeds were just appalling, the amount of missed tackles, a lot of them basic one on ones was pathetic, their handling even worse. Hurrell looked every bit a player who hasn't played for 2 years. Charnley's try was embarassing, Atkins lumbers to the ball and passes it right to his winger, no dummy, no disguise. Charnley is then able to stroll over untouched from 6 foot out? Clark's wasn't much different. Their discipline was shocking as well, they have a penalty away on most sets you had in the first half. They were as bad as I've ever seen a team in Super League. Up there with the Hull of the second half of last season. They absolutely stank.
As for you lot, you've got an impressive squad and I think you'll be the run away league leaders this year. I don't think you are technically better than Saints or Wigan even, still a lot of average players in your 17, but you play with more urgency and clearly want it more than the other sides in Super League. Your gameplan was quick play the balls, desperately quick to try and force penalties. Kendall made that easy tonight, but that could backfire with a more competent ref as several times your forwards didn't even move the ball from the floor, just left it on the floor and played it. Your offloads were the highlight of a solid first showing and again made very easy for you tonight by Leeds' lack of physicality. There were a few excellent offloads, but a lot, particularly from the backs were just throwing the ball out wildly and that can very easily become a bad idea if you turn the ball over, which is possible if the opposition has any level of desire and commitment, which Leeds didn't. Second half you got dragged down to their level and made loads of mistakes and the pack ran out of steam and everything slowed to a crawl and had the feeling of a pre season game.
Austin looked good, he looks a character as well, which is desperately needed in SL. Westwood still a grub, no doubt get cited for that if the RFL has any level of competence.'"
Blimey, that's rather a bitter review after one game, perhaps you ought to stop watching. Congratulations on beating our friends from up the A49 to being the first person to call Westwood a grub. What are you hoping that he gets cited for, by the way?

It's hard to look beyond Ratchford Clark or Austin for MOS in Wire colours.
If Ratchford keeps up this form then he'll definitely be short list, if they have one.

And we wonder why supporters of other teams perceive us all as being over confident, arrogant, bigheaded, conceited etc.

To be fair, Westwood blatantly stole the ball. It was one-on-one, sure - but there were children in the crowd and you can clearly see on the video replay that Ben doesn’t even ask politely if he can take it. Grub. The best thing we can do for him is employ Saints morality coach who has clearly worked wonders with Barba.

| Really enjoyed that. Thought we looked really dangerous at times in that first half. Really excited for this season.

Got to commend the club, from the moment I walked through the turnstile it had a big event feel to it, I got in the south about 4,and the bar queues were heaving already. They must have made a packet yesterday.

| Let's recap.
Duckie quacking about Patton. Did OK. Not great, but not pooh, either. Getting over excited, as usual.
BWW abusing said duck
Two trolls from WA10 making their "triumphant" return, since the disappearance in early October, picking ANY holes they could find in last night's events.
Plus ca change
RL's back. Great stuff

It really did feel like a big event. I cant remember enjoying an season opening game as much as i did last night. South Stand bar probably recouped Austin's wages for the season in one game.

| Just to say as well, if you don't want to see rubber duckies tall stories, and back pedaling, and general inaccuracies, please use the ignore function.
Let's not descend into name calling.
Like wise rubber duckie, dont get upset if you continue to spout tall stories and get called out on them

That's what we got!
This season I expect the lot...and we'll win the lot. The squad quality is just too deep to fail.
I saw Saints...they played well but the depth in forwards is still shallow. Warmsley is massive for them no question. They'll be near us but not better. I still say Wakefield will be the strongest chaser.'" Right what odds for us winning the lot + how much you had on?Personally think you’re living in cloud cuckoo land as per and is it any wonder with posts like that that other supports think we’re arrogant?
