Brian Mac's final words before they come out of the tunnel - "Don't fake it but it's a lot easier for our fans to jump on a train to Huddersfield next season than to trail to Salford or Hull KR"

Think that would be a daft idea to do. We (Leeds) have nothing to play for, why get them emotionally invested in the game by adding heat to it.

Should be an interesting game. We have a lot to play for and Leeds have found a superior form than the one they carried in the regular rounds. We need to do a job!

Why bother doing cheap tickets for a handful of hudds fans and a pile of Leeds ones.
ST holders are already missing out this year due to hudds having three games at home instead of four. The way we have played this season cheap tickets isn't going to persuade people to turn up. The ST holders are the ones that need appeasing - not those who don't usually bother to come!!!

I would rather Huby just concentrate on his own game and try and make yards and actually hold the ball! he has been pretty poor for me last few weeks.

Ferres is History now,forget him, sunday is about us, not him or them.

And besides i don't think any of our pack have enough aggression to smash anyone!

"sinario", the Rhinos coach pulls up outside "fortruss Giants" the team rushes off in eager antisipation, secretly, the kitman offloads, some easy chairs, lyelows, and a lot of kitchen sinks, the whole world knows that the Giants will be fast asleep till 3.20, will wake up seeing there,s some washing up to do.
Might l suggest to mr Stone, he puts them on a raw meat diet as of Friday, and as they depart the dressing room on Sunday someone hits every one of them in the face with a cricket bat.
Remember big Dave King, the biggest pussy on the field till someone hit him.

yes i know but could maybe have got an extra few to come and the fans back on side abit

this could be our last home super league game for many years to come...... to those that dont go much, dont miss it!

how will we decide to start this game??? knock on? not catch the ball from kick off? kick out on the full from kick off?? let leeds go 18-0 up before playing???

hmmm or has it set in now that they need to be up for the game from the go

my team

murphy
ormsby
s.wood
cudjoe
mcgillvary

brough
brierley
wood (because leeming is injured)

crabtree
huby
roberts (if fit)
hinchcliffe
taai

bench-
rapira
mason
lawrence

no grix, wardle, connor as they are leaving and not interested. wood off too but we have no choice now leeming is out.
hope roberts is ok, he wants to be a giant.
ellis been rubbish.
wouldnt mind if simpson played full back.
at least above want to wear the shirt and will fight (hopefully)

Thank god your not picking.

Crabtree has a cracked rib,Roberts seems ok Ukuma training on side but looked ok.Why drop Wardle? he at least should see
out his contract.Grix it seems is the only one who can organise the defence.

No offence Brearley but i am glad you didn't replace Anderson


I wouldn't have Ormsby in if it can be helped, he has looked pretty poor against average opposition.

I like how people presume that players are not interested because they're leaving? I accused certain players of not looking like they cared on saturday, through their actions and body language, but I fail to see how you can be certain that Wardle, Connor, etc aren't interested because they are leaving?

And when was it announced that Wardle was leaving? or is this another Thewlis conspiracy/signing that we haven't been told about

because the team thats been picked in the past has done us good?

forgot to put symonds in the team, hes been playing ok

roberts is good to play thats good news

wardle wants out, trying to engineer himself a move to newcaste knights... another that has rocked the boat this season and runied team morale

would the ones leaving put their bodies on the line for the giants cause

im just going on what we see on the field... its clear to see they wont.

we can still win on sunday as we are a better team at home and we will all be smiling again but may be short lived.

Eorl out,big blow,not as good as he was now but knows the only way is forward.

Roberts,good lad,good go forward,got to start working harder out of marker.

Symonds return would be huge boost.

yeh crabtree being out is a miss

but he does nothing right according to some fans who just moan when he gets the ball

good to have symonds and wood back who have been going well for us as has roberts

jury is still out on ikahihifo for me, looked awesome first 2 games but not since, what is he a prop? a second rower?!

Ikahihifo is the same as the rest of them, out of confidence, out of shape and almost out of super league.
Most of them are looking like poor players at the moment, the team is awful so naturally most of the individuals in that team are struggling.

out of shape, do you agree that we should get a new conditioning team in place then?

It appears something is wrong in that department yes!
i stood behind the posts last week when Leigh were waiting to receive a kick off, and some of their lads, Weston, Hansen, Brown all looked toned and lean, but some of our lot were looking extremely flabby by comparison.
However Mr. Stone assured us he is working on this "problem".

Sorry but he's been here long enough to have been able to make a start on fitness but nothing seems to have changed. Don't know if that clown who came from U16 football level fitness is still at the club or not but he should have been sent packing on day 1 and somebody who knew what they were doing brought in.
It doesn't take much to sort out at least the nutrition/diet of the players.

Wardle has signed for the Newcastle Knights for the 2018 season.

Are you for real! He's beem here 6 weeks- how long do you imagine it takes to get someone fit! bearing in mind he can't flog them as they still need to be able to go out and play 80 against other professional players...

But that's not at the end of the season which was implied.
