Quote Ferdy="Ferdy"God it's embarrassing to be a Leeds fan sometimes with posts like these. IMO McDermott was right to rest a lot of key players ahead of the cup final. In reality winning the hub cap means very little and players like peacock after a big effort against wire needed the rest prior to THE CUP FINAL.
That team were good enough to win today and showed it by being 20 points up at some point. That was a perfect opportunity to play some fringe player and rest a few, against London and people trying to put themselves in a shop window to claim a bench spot. Let's be honest there was plenty of tallent in that team more than enough to win.'"
Correct.I'm very frustrated we have tossed away 4 points against the bottom 2 sides but some of the reaction is way over the top.The side that played yesterday had internationals and senior squad members throughout and should have comfortably won, and with a 30-8 lead looked like it was going to.
I'm still very confident we will get the job done on saturday and i fully expect when we do that certain posters come on this thread whilst eating some humble pie.
