Ahh biggies...

Must. Not. Thread. Driiiiiift.

He should be docked some wages. Very stupid, when we are so short on forwards.

Maybe he misses playing just one game in every three so thought he'd speed the process up a touch?

Ooh look, William Eve's calling for the maximum possible ban for a Leeds player.
How utterly unpredictable.



Stupidity from Brad. I do like that Singleton is adding or trying to add a bit of much needed grunt up front but you can do that legally, without slapping someone from behind.
Hopefully no more than 4 games but who knows anymore.

If it had been on a Leeds player I would want a ban of 3-4 games for the offender as a minimum. It would be hypocritical not to expect and accept the same when it is the other way around. I try not to to be a hypocrite, simples.

Fair comment and a view i would go along with.

Bottom line here is, it's a bit dumb really when you are already thin on the ground for forwards stupid acts like this by an established player now in Singleton must be making the coach pull his hair out.same as the Ablett push on the ref that meant we lost him for the Cas game, losing players to bans like this can be avoided.

Without Singleton we should still have a decent enough pack to beat Wakey.
By all reports they were lucky to beat Salford, so if we don't win this one we are back to square one.

The back of Bird's head was bleeding at the end of the match, looked like he had caught him pretty good and I'm not entirely sure how the linesman on the North Stand side missed it to be honest. Singleton did go out of his way to make his mark and prob will get the top end of the possible punishments.

Nah there was nothing in it. it was a cheap shot but a scuff more than a deliberate fore arm smash. 2 games would be enough, he will get 4 which is harsh didnt Chase only get like 6 for smashing that kids jaw against fev. anything above 4 would be very very harsh. no need for it but seen much much worse.

We've been weird so far this season. We were a bounce of ball away from beating Hull and dominated for over an hour against Huddersfield yet somehow lost. So we could easily have won four out of four but equally we were two minutes from losing at Saints and a Murdoch-Masila drop away from losing to Salford so could be bottom with Wire.

Should be close. I reckon a narrow Leeds win by a try or so but hopefully I'm wrong!

Hopefully. Leeds by six tries would be better

Par for the course in the 70's and 80's but it's very stupid in the 2017 sanitised version of the game. He ought get 8 games but he'll get 4.

I listened to the radio commentary as I couldn't make the game and they didn't miss the incident, so yes... how did the linesman miss it?

Same reason all 3 missed hit on bjb at shudds depends who's getting hit

as someone who has reffed there have been incidents where all 3 of us missed an incident.
also once a player stood next to me didn't see a lad punch another 5 yards away. others saw and heard it 40 yards away. belter of a right hander. shouldn't happen but it does sometimes

Thought every game was videoed nowadays by the club's

They are, you can see wakey getting a few bum grounding calls and conspiring to nearly lose a game they dominate for an hour against Salford on youtube, no f****** good the day after though is it, I mean they don't act on it at the time, its just a recording.
WTF are we gonna get the same level of scrutiny for every game, just do em all or don't do any....dingbats

Wakey were lucky to win the game, it shouldn't have been close but it was, if they don't switch off for 10 minutes Salford don't get to not put the ball down properly and it ain't close, so....its gonna be a game I reckon.
I'm sorta thinking I'm glad there's a vid ref for this one, but that sh11 goes both ways..:/

expecting it to be tough, but if we play like last week and patience and composure think we will win by a couple or three scores. but not as big as last week. 32-16 to leeds

I think it'll be a tough old game.

If we can get in front early and use the confidence attacking wise from last week then hopefully we can get a decent result.

That been said, I cant see Trin letting us get away with half the stuff that Catalans did last week and they will make us play for the full 80.

A great test for the team, have we turned the page? or are we back to the drawing board?

Walters and Mullally to miss out. However, i'm sure Ferres and Garbutt will still be doubts and they'll probably be other injury concerns which will change the above team!

Greetings noisy neighbours!

Think this will be a good contest and looking forward to it - only seen highlights of your game vs Catalan but looks like it was fairly routine win for you. That said, I've watched most of Catalans games this year and they don't look anything special.

We struggled past Salford but were the better side for most of the game, we switched off for 15 mins and they ruthlessly punished us with their strike players.

I think we have a stronger pack and halves going into this one, but your backline is stronger (although possibly not as fast) and where you can do us the most damage. If you can get a platform and get it wide near to our line, you will score points.

We will look something like

See you on Friday night

I'd say there's a decent chance that at least one of Garbutt or Ferres doesn't make it. I'd edge towards Garbutt not making it because 2 weeks for a pectoral injury (think they said it was torn) seems very quick.
