Ablett is in the 19

Forgot about Jimmy, if fit he may well be playing Centre with the change in coaching team now? Whilst he's not a superstar, it will be a shame to see him go at the end of the year as he's a pretty good defender and runs some good lines with the ball. If he had the ability to set his winger away (I hope we start playing like that again...) then my guess is he'd be staying.

you've loaned keihorst out haven't you

no he's injured. had a month at Widnes a while back to get fit

My mistake - did not think he would be back this week.

As a WT fan, I look at that line-up and see a really strong team; what's going wrong?

Confidence is shot, guilty of overplaying, powder-puff defence, no leader or voice on the pitch and that's just for starters

Exactly this plus they've had no fall back plan.

one dimensional ! No plan B

no plan A either

Plan to plan.

Strongest 19 man squad we’ve had for a while

Sinfield interview was superb today. Showed a lot for me from behind the scenes. Says that Garbutt, Ablett, Ward, all play.

only guessing but I think things had gone stale. players were listening to the same voice and both the playing and coaching side needed freshening up. hopefully we are on the right track.

Agreed, he really is sounding the part, hope the players listen and respond.

Me too, but if they don't he won't be afraid of telling them or replacing them.

This feels like a new dawn, even if the results don't necessarily show it over the next week or two.

He’s all class in everything he does and how he carry’s himself is Sinfield, always destined for success in all he turns his attentions to.

I agree Seth. I am so pleased he's back.

Very interesting to hear him talk about how some of the pride has been lost in playing for Leeds.

Its constantly amazing how quickly successful sports teams can go from being held in the highest esteem even outside the sport to freefalling into also-rans. Whilst recruitment etc has been a problem, I still think the club as a whole reacted dreadfully to the events of 2016, and last year helped create the false impression that all would be good this year when everyone was fit. A mix of overconfidence in the coaches and players, and a lack of understanding what it was that made the culture work over the golden decade.

The decision to go the season with only one proven half back (Myler) has been disastrous in my opinion, especially as he's usually been behind a well beaten pack.

The club clearly assumed that Moon would develop into a proper stand off. He hasn't looked remotely like a 6 when given a go there at different clubs previously, so I'm not sure why they thought it would suddenly click for him.

Its WIN or bust now,

A point I have made many times on here - he will never make a stand off, he has no kicking game and struggles to pass accurately.

said the same many times Sal but always got shouted down

Yet he might be playing SO tonight unless Sutcliffe is moved there which would be equally as bad.
