I think with the season we've had we should be aiming for two wins in the next two games. Reward the fans for their loyalty by having a couple of good performances to finish the season on. There's been little else to cheer

A lot to do with the Corporate entertainment side, Mr Oats and his team already emailing out to clients asking to renew their sponsorship and tables for next season, they want to see Leeds play their strongest team and win the next two games. Fully understand why not introduce the youngsters for the last two games, but Corporate sponsorship is so important to this club. they have the best Corporate sponsorship and match day Corporate tables in SL, that is the envy of every SL club, and with the poor season that we have had they cannot and will not jeopardise this position, unfortunately it’s a hard fact of life Money runs sport, and the corporate side of Leeds is a gold mine.

I want to see the strongest team not something resembling a testimonial game game ,plus both our last two opponents are very much in the hunt for top 5 places

Don’t know if it’s already been mentioned, but The Sun reporting Lolohea as saying he felt too much expectation was on him and other players to perform at Leeds. Well, when you come as an international on good money, what do you expect?

Unfortunately I didn't attend.

I didn't want to waste my money and watch yet another defeat against Leeds!!

What's our strongest team? serious question. Is it really the one we are putting out? it's failed all year, so why is it our strongest? Just because it is the one the coaches have gone with, doesn't mean it is. They have been afraid before now to do anything else. That fear should have gone.

Wigan gunning for 2nd, and yet announce they are trying to introduce Harry Dodd over the next couple of games to get experience. Us in a dead rubber bottom five non event, and we stick to the same old same old. The same people accepting it, the same ones moaning when it is repeated next year.

I still think there should have been room for one or two juniors to make their debuts over the next couple of games, to give them some experience of what will be required next year.

You could argue we would get more out of playing Trout, Walters or Mustapha in place of Ferres, for example.

Fully expecting Tui to have a blinder against us - he does have talent, it's for us to apply some pressure in his defence.

Looking forward to these two matches where we don't have this cloud hanging over every move.

For me, Agar should attempt to wring 2 more serious games from his first choice side to determine how serious they are now relegation's off the cards. Won't be easy as with the best will in the world, it'll be hard for the players to maintain focus, especially considering the stressful season they've subjected themselves to.
Playing youngsters in dead rubbers where half the seasoned pros might well be already on the beach won't develop them in any way.

It’s always good when you see the young players introduced to the starting 17, fortunately for us so called coaches it’s best we leave it to the people who really know. Agar like him or not will make this decision and along with KS they will know which youngsters will be ready for the first team.
Maybe they don’t believe at this stage of the season that the young players are ready to play in the first team and they will be best served by staying where they are and play either in their age group or away on duel registration.
I will support the better judgement of Agar and KS against some of the comments on here, and for the last game if any of young players will be given a place in the 17 it will be because they are ready to play first team football. I generally enjoy reading the mix of comments on here, everyone is entitled to their opinion, I respect their opinion, what I don’t like reading is some of the comments that simply rip into other people’s comments as if they know best, these people are no better than playground bullies. Everyone on here is entitled to their opinion like it or not.

Well said

Agree but for me the focus now should be entirely on putting this season behind us and focusing on 2020. Decisions should be made with next year in mind.

Even within the same squad as last week, there are players like Oledzki and Smith who I'd like to see given more game time with next year in mind.

I agree entirely with all of the above and that is exactly why I do not participate more on here

To be fair this forum is really quite tame compared to a lot of them

Ward drafted into the squad for Friday.

Questions marks over Hurrell and Martin as well, maybe others. Might be a few changes after all.

Would love to see Ward get a good game under his belt, I’m a big fan of his and hope he (and his body) manage to prove the doubters wrong going forward.

I'm a massive fan of his but I don't want him getting picked for the tour.

Imo WARD should be left well alone to prepare for 2020 get a full pre-season under his belt ready for what could be a career defining year.

Saving him for the first game of next season when the opposition will be fresh with aggressive defence (etc) seems even more risky if you think about it. We can't wrap him in cotton wool for ever, assuming he's physically fit. The sooner he gets out there and into the rhythm of playing the better. The first moments will be tense and anxious but arguably it will do him more good mentally in the longer-term to have 1-2 hit outs this year, ahead of the new season.

Feeling his way back in, with games that have little consequence is the right way to reintroduce him IMO.

He'd all pre-season to do that unlimitedsubs etc no point whatsoever in risking him games we have zero to play for but the opposition are fighting for spots in the play offs.

Glad he's getting a couple of games without pressure to feel his way in. As much as anything it'll be a lift to his confidence and I hope he can go into the off-season with a weight lifted and without the anxiety of waiting a few more months for a game.

My spidey senses tell me we’re going to run a big score tonight poppickers

Is there commentary on the game anywhere?

Hmmm.... have you switched allegiance to Salford?

Leeds playing like they’re on their holidays, hastings is the difference between the two
