Probably off somewhere, trying to convince themselves and others that you said something completely different, just like they've been doing for the last few weeks.

Some have taken dogs abuse for over 12 months saying we'd be challenging when we had a proper pre-season....and looks what's happened with a proper preseason we are near the top

And again.. you seem happier that you were 'right' than that we won
Also playing 3 props didnt really work in our favour, we lost a lot of collision against a Wigan pack missing a few big hitters, conceeded two tries cuased by tired defenders not pushing across, and its not like Delaney played so well that it justified going with 5 backrowers

| People get so precious and knickers in a twist. I would say last night, and it deserves credit, is the first game this season yet, where we have done something that wasn't expected. Previous results go exactly to what the majority expected, but last night was definitely a bonus result to what the majority thought. Another one next week and people are in entitled to crow a little territory.

| A cursory glance at the prediction thread would suggest the vast majority thought it would be a Leeds win.

That was on the basis of a weakened Wigan team. I was talking more about preseason predictions.
Although I do take something back on my previous comment, as the Cas result was also a surprise, as no one expected us to be quite that bad.
It is also worth noting that Wakefield last year hammered a weakened Wigan team around the same time.

| Nah not having it.....did you do a straw poll before the season started of which games we were expected to win? We also had players missing last night, not as many as Wigan, but missing nonetheless.
Before the season started I doubt anyone could have predicted how good Cas were going to be, another shallacking dished out last nigh.

We don't need a straw poll, we have a predictions thread on the finishing positions, which is in this board. So yes in answer to your questions. Look at it.

| Have to admit I was wrong, expected to win 2 of the 4, give credit to Mac and the team for turning things around after the Cas Mess, which I didn't think they were capable of. They do look to be trying to play a bit more creative as well which deserves mention. The "poor" performances against Leigh and Salford actually now look OK, considering the good results those teams have had. However this does not change my opinion on the team needing a reshuffle with new faces brought in whether from the academy or signings (really really want a new half back, even if it's a signing for next season). The Wigan team last night was weak, i still expect a fully fit Wigan to beat a fully fit Leeds by a couple of scores (hope I'm wrong) The big test for me is the next match v Cas, we have a lot of players back, look to be finding a new post 2015 identity and will be looking for revenge.
Other than that keep it up Leeds, doing well (and proven me wrong)

Still can't see where anyone states that we'd not beat Wigan at home.

| It's been an excellent response overall they've rolled their sleeves up regrouped & got stuck into these last 4 games with an intent to prove every doubter myself included wrong.
Hats off to the Coach & squad hopefully we maintain it & avoid another humiliation this year.
Onto the longer term i maintain we still need changes on/off the pitch & that the next part of the transition needs to be handled much better.

| Ok ok, i was wrong i certainly didn't expect 4 from 4 after Cas but by the same token i didn't expect Catalans and Wakey to be so poor and gift us some confidence, Huddersfield are a mess so how much you read into that i don't know.Wigan were also well under strength so last nights result and margin of victory was kind of expected, i still feel they are a bit ahead of us with players back but you can only beat what is infront of you as correctly pointed out.
So, well done to the club for the response they have made, couldn't have done much more than they have and the heat is rightly of for the time being.That said, i still stand by feelings on where the club is heading and the need for regime changes.The fact changes shouldn't be need to be made mid season is obviously a good thing though.

Really? You need to look closer, it is quite clear. You wouldn't have got the predictions without some form of thought. I certainly wouldn't have expected it, or even thought we would come close. I would however have expected the other wins.

Well I am disagreeing with you, and see it quite clear. I actually think you are misunderstanding my argument though, as though these results have changed opinion. They haven't, but that doesn't stop last night being a result that people were not expecting, and deserving of credit.

No, i'm definitely happier that we won but like most would be, i'm also happy to be proven right in my optimism.
It's not that big of a deal though, unless you make it one by constantly moaning about it.

| We have beaten 3 poor teams and a well below strength Wigan , although for the first time this season i thought we played well last night and showed plenty of skill and seemed to have a well thought out game plan . I do think the next two games will show a bit more where we are at though .

| Quote ="tvoc"The CEO rightly states the importance of the next four fixtures:
V Catalans - Leeds have lost the last three meetings
V Wakefield - Leeds have won two of last three meetings
V Huddersfield - Leeds have lost the last three meetings
V Wigan - Leeds have won one of last three meetings
Leeds have won three of the last twelve meetings so one from the next four would be about par for the recent course in these fixtures. Most Leeds fans would probably view that as being a shade optimistic after Thursday's debacle.'"
TVOC's post puts the last 4 results into some perspective. 2 wins out of the next 3 would really convince me that we're back, so to speak.
Hull will be a real test but Warrington can't keep playing so poorly, can they?

I agree re-FC but i have no idea what's happening at Wire they could put 40+ on us & it wouldn't be a major shock but IF we stay composed & go at them all the signs are that they'll fade & give up.
