Leeds were without:

Full back: Brent Webb (NZ international)

Hooker: Daniel Buderus (Australian international)

Scrum half: Robert Burrow (England international) after 16 minutes.

The three key positions in the team were not filled by the first choice players.

How could anyone have expected an understrength team with such setbacks in key personnel to compete with a full strength and well oiled machine like Manly.

It was in fact an unfair contest.

poor leeds being without their NRL players.

looks like when you take the nrl players out of the english sides they are even more s**t than we think.

and people praised leeds as an example of a club which doesnt rely on imports for success.

yesterday showed that up

But he didn't say 'Poor leeds been without NRL players Buderus, Webb and Burrow'? He just said your NRL players so was obviously speaking about Webb and Buderus without mentioning any names.

It's really not that difficult to understand!

What interest is the World Club Challenge to a Hull Fan? It's not likely to involve you is it?

What has that got to do with what I just said?

Anyways, I am a rugby league fan who watched a rugby league match last night who was cheering for Manly. Thats my interest in the World club challenge. Thats what it is to a Hull fan!

Your not the brightest are you!

No need to get insulting now is there?

Think Manly were missing a couple of players as well (in the forwards)
