All this "it gives the team picked added incentive" business is crap!
If a team needs added incentive in a major semi final then they shouldnt be there in the 1st place so in answer to your question I believe NO.

People assume the team Leeds decide to pick will feel disrespected and which in turn will make them more dangerous.
But do people not think that the team we play will be one week away from the Super League Grand Final - Is that not already a big enough incentive and worth lacing your boots up for? Could they get anymore fired up than they already will be?

It won't be an issue if Leeds lose to Hull KR on Friday.
At this stage you have to go with home advantage being the most prominent determining factor (although there has always been at least one away win in every previous SL play off series) so If Leeds were to beat Hull KR in week 1 why wouldn't they chose to play them again in week 3?
You're at home, you've already beaten them in the play offs, they haven't won at Headingley since 1985 and left defeated on the last thirteen visits.

Whatever Leeds decide to do, they should make the announcement as late as possible to give their potential opponent a little less time to plan.
