That won't do much good, only Kevin Sinfield has the ability to read and he's not strong enough to smash anyone.

Hope he does Bailey will get his marching orders. We all know Peacock has got a pretty short fuse also.

Leeds' pack lazy ?!?!?!?!



That pack has won them the championship twice on the bounce so it cannot be that bad.

Having said that I do think Saints are the superior side, every stat suggests it barring the GF for 2 years and as has been said, in both it lashed it down which certainly doesn't suit Saints, however Leeds found the way to win.

Due to a lack of SH and I really would have preferred to throw Lomax in there rather than be moving Wilkin or Roby, I have to go with Leeds. This squad suggests to me that if Pryce doesn't show (and lets face it, nobody knows if he will or not) then Saints are going to be playing a very simple game through the ruck with little else, therefore if Pryce doesn't show, we have very little, if any chance of winning the game.

Wilkin won't let us down at 7, and Slong's kicking hasn't exactly been sparkling this year so Gidley won't fare much worse.

Whether we win depends on the pack competing and Pryce showing up, just as it would if Longy was in there.

Still too tight to call IMO, can't wait.

When we win a game in the rain

To be fair, it's fairly obvious the Leeds pack are better equipped for wet weather slog, it's more an observation than an excuse.

No exused Sunday. Forcast for warm sunny weather in the Leeds area.

At least we won't get wet

There could be a few tears in the Saints end by FT though
