You don't think a display like that will be enough to beat Warrington?

I do. IMO that was our best display of the season and come play offs no team would relish playing us.

you think warrington would drop the ball over the line 3 or 4 times then?

maybe some teams looked at leeds and thought if we restrict them to 3 tries or less we will be gifted at least that, tonights defence was a lot better but theres still room for improvement and thats what will worry the other teams
we've restricted wigan to only penalties in a crunch game and they have also bottled big games against saints and warrington so who knows how they might react when the real pressure starts
warringtons season might depend on the cup final, lose that and confidence might drop plus they have the stigma of not being able to beat saints so again who knows how they will react
that leaves saints and injuries might make or break their season but they could beat any team in the league home or away and are used to the pressure

if leeds improve on last night then this years play offs is a genuine 4 horse race and that can only be good for rugby league

Yes

Possibly, although I'm hopeful of further improvement.

If Warrington are at their best then I don't think Leeds are good enough yet. I still wasn't confident at all with Leeds defence, there appeared to be gaps all over and they were lucky that either Cas couldn't utilise the overlaps or Leeds managed to put a few try saving hits in.

I still think we are producing too many errors, penalties and are kicking game is not upto scratch. Hopefully a good win next week will bring Eastwood and Lauitiiti some confidence back to get them playing at their best.

That's the best performance I've seen since the WCC.

Slightly off topic, but Sargent is the kind of player we need for next season, it's a shame he's off back to Oz.

CC maybe, but title as well is stretching it abit, come on.

We only just beat saints last week and they didn't have either first choice halfback.

Wigan gave us a touch up on our own ground and before that we needed a last gasp try to win.

It'll be a wigan saints grand final, let's not kid ourselves. Saints wigan top 2, saints wigan grand final. We've had a good grand final record recently because [uwe haven't finished outside the top 2 in 7 years.[/u.

and tony smith will put one over on us sooner or later just like hull were going to put on over us sooner or later in the 2005 cc final.

In fairness there was probably only one of those that was an actual chance, and that was when the match was pretty much dead. Firing the ball into Shentons face while he's surrounded by defenders, and then some of the others where players were trying to take high pressure passes at speed with defenders in place? That is always going to be a low percentage of success.
We also have some of our best defenders to return, Sinfield, Buderus, Delaney will fill the gaps we had last night.

Cas were no great shakes tonight, but the defence moved up a level. I'm confident that we can improve further.

We have 6 or 7 big one off games coming up. I would rather have Bluey geeing the guys up over any other coach
