Justifications for? Answers on a pinhead please.

Yet another used sub? Why bother having so many to chose Mr McDermott? Why not just concede defeat and pick just 16 (probably onl playing 15 then though of course)

I'm shocked you appear shocked!! Didn't you learn it's an innovative new sub policy we used so well last year!!

Agree it's bizarre picking a half back when we have 2 perfectly good props reted for a local derby that's always going to be a physical encounter

Good job it wasn't a prop who pulled up in the warm-up, isn't it?

Is Brett Delaney still a thing?

Mac said something interesting re Briscoe in a pre-match presser. "Hes a healthy lad, he looks after himself. We dont need to go dragging him out of nightclubs at 3am"

Is this alluding to something? Have Singleton and Garbutt been naughty. I know Singos just had a baby.

Leeds need to make a statement whats going on , the rumours going round the ground tonight true or false do no one any good .

what rumours?

That Garbutt has been told to pack his bags and go home?

that Mac told Garbutt to pack his bags and Frig off out of here and Singleton was dropped for disciplinary reasons . Either way there has been no reason given for either not playing .

The fact that the two most potent front rowers after cuthbo are sitting in the stands when we are desperately short of oomph is a bit baffling...

Let's see if they play on Monday. Assuming he won't pick achurch or baldwinson or if picked won't get off bench, not sure we can afford for any of this to be true.

Mac appeared livid with Garbutt about his punch in the WCC

Agreed, it's stupid.

Is there a reason ? If his comment about nightclubs is true isn't that abit unprofessional ? .

I'm sure he will pick Delaney again and Lilley can always have a sit down for the night.

In a game we were already losing by a big margin, how would he have reacted to Abletts brain fart last night then? Giving penalty away in possession for no reason and in a good position. I would imagine that would mean consistency though.

Bmd seems to like workhorses, so Delaney and Ablett get flogged and it looks like Ferres will this year.

Might have been disappointed but pots and kettles And all that. If true it must be due to something else.

At least he went after a prop forward not Damian Gibson.

Garbutt told to pack his bags? Was that before or after he was sat in the stands at the Saints game?

Before , thats if it is true , give me another good reason he has been left out the last two games . If it is true he aint going to leave anyhow when on a good contract

Both in the 19 for Monday

they can be in the 17 and not get on the pitch

Garbutt and Singleton were rubbish against Wigan. Dropped for Saints, we beat Saints, so why change a winning team?

Can't beat a good conspiracy theory though, eh?

lets see what happens on monday

The whole team were off against Wigan so i don't really see why 2 of our GF winning front rowers who have been excellent for a long while were seemingly singled out as they didnt stick out like a sore thumb to me so for them to miss out two games running was a surprise, especially as they would have clearly made a difference off the bench for us.Keinhorst and Walters or Garbutt and Singleton? its a no brainer.
