Total mind games. I think he's trying to push Powell into naming his and putting Huby in.

I think McDermott has just picked his most experienced side - thats all. Only Sutcliffe in their squad lacks big game experience allthough he has had plenty of game time this season.

Leeds are a pretty down to earth squad too with many of their players coming through the Academy.
Admittedley moreso in past seasons but nevertheless still have a hefty slice of them playing on Saturday.

Mind games? Thats rich comming from a club that insisted that Rangi Chase was in a race against time to get back from a court case in Aus,to play in a semi final,when in fact he never left the UK. A joke surely.

the funny thing about that was that cas thought that they were playing mind games and believed that the rhinos would take it all in,but rangi's close cousin weller made everyone at the Rhinos aware of the situation

All the best as well from a 74 year old Wigan supporter even though I only live a couple of miles from Leigh.
When Wigan lost at Cas, I think it was about 33-32 I thought it was just a bad day at the office from Wigan. Since then I have changed my opinion, Cas just seem to have got better and better. On Saturday though I think you must get more minutes from Clark to really push Leeds, he seems such a good player I think he could give Leeds a load of grief the more time he is on the field.

Once again good luck.

From a Saints fan good luck on saturday and enjoy the day

Never known Brian Mac to go in for mind games. I think everyone knew 16 of his 17 already, nobody who was given a chance to push for a spot on Sunday at London did so. So there aren't really any mind games to play. Of the players left out, none would raise a shrug from Powell if he named them as a "surprise".

Cas are in a different situation as there are injuries (or injury) to assess, and they'll presumably want to give Huby as much time as possible.

Nothing to see here.

Never mind who Leeds will pick, let them worry about that. What is the likely Cas team? I'll be a Cas fan for the day on Saturday best of luck!

Probably this :-

Dorn
Dixon
Webster
Shenton
Carney
Sneyd
Finn
Lynch
Clark
Huby
Holmes
Hauraki
Massey

Ellis
Jewitt
Wheeldon
Mariano

If Huby doesn't play them we bring Carvell in.

I think it'll be a close game, but hopefully we'll just edge a thriller...

Hope you win, good luck !

Oh it's been a while Disco

good luck Cas! Hope you do it.

i think that this rhinos v cas rivallry could well blossom big time now that the bulls have been relegated and become yorkshire's number 1 derby game in sl

lets all revel in this and make it grow

all the best for saturday but i hope it's a long journey home for you guys
