It was 4 points until the squads were announced and then they pushed us to 6 point start.

I do genuinely think though that Leeds have a poor forward pack...I like Oledski but that's about it...a couple of promising youngsters but not much size about them...

If our lads can win the forward battle then the edge Leeds have in the backs on paper could be somewhat negated. I'd absolutely bombard Walker with high kicks and plenty of pressure too because from looking a world beater coming through a few seasons back the injury and time out looks to have taken it's toll and he looks to have an error or two in him and could lose confidence very quickly...

Tetavano doesn`t lack size, but he seems to just go through the motions, he doesn`t look half the player I watched in the NRL.

They definitely have a few players massively down in confidence, the one that stands out to me is Walker at fullback, we should relentlessly go at him all game, catch him with a high bomb early on and he will fall to pieces.

The only one missing from their first choice 1-13 is 11, so they will be no pushover's obviously https://twitter.com/leedsrhinos But if we can continue playing the same way we have in the first 3 games then we could just sneak this one

Looking at the squads I’d have Leeds down as favourites for this. Our three quarters look depleted but the pack isn’t far off full strength. All the teams Leeds have played so far have kept Sezer and Austin quiet, if we do the same we’ve a chance.

Thought Lino was supposed to be leaving

Re: Whino's up next : Tue Mar 01, 2022 7:25 pm  

Well our defence won’t be tested like it was at saints ,so no worries there for me ,and with Lino back in the fold I think we have just the talisman to unlock their defence and deliver the coup de gras .Feeling confident even without some quality in the three quarters ,but I’m sure they’ll step up to the plate and let no one down ,which will only heighten the competition for places when players start to return ,not had this for some time ,and bodes well for the club going forwards

I would have the centres and wide forwards all covered by wide forwards

so Johnstone Ashurst (Tanginoa as wide left) and (Pitts wide right) Batchelor Murphy/
Kay

I think I would go Jowitt Johnstone Ashurst Batchelor Murphy/ Kay Miller Lino Fifita Bowes Arona
Tanginoa Pitts Crowther interchange Battye Whitbread Walker Aydin

"their" far superior not "there"......

although you could have said " the worry there, is a far superior blah blah".....

but even if you had the grammar correct,,, I still wouldn't agree with you

Sorry do not agree .If Miller and Link are anyway near there top game there is not to much to choose between them .Think it will depend on how are three-quarters cope
