Not sure I buy the Shaul story tbh. Even if he has got a stomach bug, Thursday morning is very early to rule him out. They would wait and see how he is tomorrow. I also fully expect Ellis to play.

Even if it's worst case scenario and Shaul, Ellis and Pryce are all missing we should still have enough to get a result.

Smacks of mind games. Feel like a 'big club' now.

All clubs do it although that doesn't mean that we'll see Ellis and Shaul playing.

Why does everyone keep saying bring Whiting back we have lots of talent in his position, he's been a great servant but his times passed Washbrook will go 6 if Pryce out

Naughton
Michaels
Fonau
Yeaman
Talanoa
Washbrook
Sneyd
Taylor
Houghton
Watts

Think part of it is a chance to say goodbye and thanks. Would be great for him to have one last swansong. Hopefully he'll be in attendance at the Catalans game so we can give him a good send off.

Back to tonight, that looks a good team, but hopefully we won't miss Shaul too much (if he is out), as he has dragged us back into games with his xfactor.

Last few weeks have been slim pickings for some.

Love to see him come back and presented with something but he should be nowhere near the team.

If it's contagious, it makes sense to be cautious.

Illness contributed to Wigan's downfall last week.

Quite agree. Maybe bring in back for a pre season friendly where nothing is at stake maybe is an option

was talking to my old man this morning and said if shaul and leon were out, that's the team id go for

Leigh would have to agree to that

This game should be a walk over for you guys, we are in the worst form for 15-20 years and you are playing some really good rugby atm

I'd like to think it's going to be a good tight game but we are completely shot, still looking forward to it though

Its games like this that we tend to get over-confident about.

Plus we could be without Shaul (best fullback in SL this year IMO), Pryce, Minichiello, Ellis

I know were confident about tonight and so we should after the last 5 games, but we were in the same situation after the Catalan game and look what happened after that, (i'm hoping i'm wrong) I've got a bad feeling about tonight I feel tonight Leeds will turn up it's never been a happy place for us over the last decade we've never seemed to match them at Headingley and Leeds do enjoy playing against us.

Lets hope i'm sat here in 8 hours times being told i was wrong

I don't think your on your own with any of those sentiments again like last week its a scenario we have all seen before, so many times, however we just have to go along stand in the pouring rain, take the abuse, pray their heads are in the right place and hope this isn't the night the Rhino's come good!

And that will all be down to Mr Radford and co.

Rhinos will come good eventually but not with the side we are putting out tonight , unless of course Hull play terrible

Shaul, Ellis & Mini will be a big miss.

I dont think tonight will be a walkover at all be a tight game, think the Rhino fans are trying to pull the wool over our eyes a bit.

i wonder if radders will keep hadley at off half again

Hope not. It worked against Hudds as they were probably as unprepared for us to only have 1 half back as we were.

Leeds will put more pressure on Sneyd - target him in defence, tiring him out and making his ineffective in attack.

If we have 2 halves, you play 2 halves

We didn't have Ellis, Mini or Leon for the Huddersfield game, so really only Shaul is missing from last time. However, I'm sure Radders, Ellis and Pryce will be emphasising the need to be on top of our game.

Yeh first time I have seen fans playing mind games!!!



Incidentally the Leeds arena is apparently sold out for Little Mix tonight, so be prepared, there will be a lot of cars on the road!

I don't think we are trying to pull wool over your eyes we are genuine poor this year. The performances have been dire let alone the results. The last 3 games were against hull KR Wakey and Salford and we have looked bad in all of them. Apart from any injuries we have our defensive and attacking structures are dire.
I have no confidence at all we will get a result tonight can only see a Hull win. The weather may assist us keeping the scores closer but for a Leeds win I have little hope

Also shouldn't effect you getting there but the Leeds inner ring road through centre is shut 7pm to 7am if any of you go that way

.... A614 @ Howden closed (for weeks) due to a hole in the ground!
