Simple game.
Defend like last week and find some points.

If we cant put the ball through hands effectively, kicks to the side-lines or grubbers in goal give us some chance (hopefully).

The only worry is that Leeds hacw been playing better than us so far, mind you, everyone else has too.

Fascinated that Gaskell is thought too slow by some at stand off, but quick enough at centre.
Most top class centres have plenty of pace, plus which there have been many halves not blessed with pace , but with plenty of guile.
Not saying Gaskell is the answer , but the logic is questionable.

Not really. Nobody’s saying he has to be a sprinter but we need a stand off who’s quick thinking and provides speedy distribution
And then perhaps can move a little faster than Gaskell in midfield.

The team that hasn't scored a point in our last 2 games away to the team that has just beaten
St Helens, forgive me for not feeling too confident …

And who would have bet on Leeds coming away with a win in that game , saints homecoming after being crowned world club champions, in fact who gave them a chance . It’s a fickle game and we might catch them off guard thinking we are easy beats , done and seen it all before and hopefully do it again this fri

Hate to say this but all i saw, was a Leeds team with speed in the backs halfs that could put players through a gap, and a team that new were to run .There Coach is getting things right and that was not there full team .Going but expected to be on way home before match finished I watch Wakefield ,if I wanted to watch Leeds I would buy a season ticket

Watched the game and Depending on which side of the Pennines you are from there were some match changing decisions made by both teams ,with more than a sprinkling from the ref . Looking for further improvements from us in our attack and hopefully we’ve got our defensive line sorted once again Game on if we go with the right frame of mind . Always look forwards to this one , good chance of leeds playing with 12 for at least part of the game as I see Bentley is back in as well as their prolific high tackling exponent Tetevano. Should be a cracker

Hope that's not literally there KK.....
We have enough players missing as it is!
Although it would be of benefit if either of dumb or dumber were sin-binned or even better sent off to give us a better chance!
