I also have a feeling that Peacock may not play.

He'll play.

This is looking like a really good opportunity for us.

Yes, as others were saying, it's a great feeling to have some depth in the squad.

He wont miss chance to knock Fielden about.

One thing I will be looking at with interest in this game is how heavily involved Richards becomes in the long kicking game. It was the right move by Wigan to take advantage of him being in the fullback position and utilising his kicking skills in open play.

Although there wasn't much finesse or accuracy in Richards' open play kicks against Bradford, at least he got some distance on the thing- something that our halfbacks have struggled with. I hope we continue to utilise him for this, certainly when we're stuck deep in our own half.

Improvements in the kicking game and also far better discipline have been key reasons behind our improvement.

Then again playing their reserves could work in their favour. It did with us.

Lets hope we don't get complacent.

Sam Tomkins long kicking game was very good v Bradford - most of them bounced on the ground split between the winger and FB, giving our defence a few extra seconds to chase.

Then again, Mathers shouldnt be playing.

He isn't - 19 man team announced on official site - no changes

Oh, Good


Same as last week for me.

If your interested the Leeds 19 is:

1 Brent Webb
2 Scott Donald
3 Lee Smith
5 Ryan Hall
6 Danny McGuire
7 Rob Burrow
8 Kylie Leuluai
10 Jamie Peacock
11 Jamie Jones Buchanan
12 Ali Lauitiiti
13 Kevin Sinfield (C)
14 Matt Diskin
16 Ryan Bailey
17 Ian Kirke
18 Carl Ablett
19 Luke Burgess
20 Ashley Gibson
22 Danny Allan
23 Kallum Watkins

Webb is likely to be in the 17.

the kicks only good as the chase like they did again st bradford

Pick us your team and subs from that lot.

I bet he could make that side better than Wigans 95 team.

To be honest I'm not sure. Bluey has been a little unpredictable with his team selection so far this season.

Don't temp me.

OK, but what would your selection be out of interest?

Smith
Scott Donald
Watkins
Gibson
Hall
McGuire
Rob Burrow
Kylie Leuluai
Diskin
Jamie Peacock
Jamie Jones Buchanan
Kirke/Ablett
Kevin Sinfield (C)

Ryan Bailey
Webb
Carl Ablett/Kirke
Luke Burgess

Thanks. Given that Bluey will want to start Webb on the bench (probably) we need to get stuck into those inexperienced backs!!

Saying that though, I wouldn't be suprised if Webb started and Smith played on the wing, Hall got belted by Mozza last week, although he played on Bluey may not risk him. Also Ablet could play in the centre, but I owuldn't be happy with that.

Don't worry we'll have 1 as slow as him.
