| Quote thebloodbath="thebloodbath"Apart from the Wakie result, Wire have been producing some good stuff and they are solid.
Leeds need to get the big lads out there. Match them down the middle, slow them down, keep the errors to a minimum and we need to create more chances than of late.
So it's not so vital arguing we should pick 'X' over 'Y' on this one, it's the collective Rhinos which turn up which will determine our chances. Fingers in the air stuff......'"

^ This.
Warrington have clobbered us so many times with this simple tactic, I'm amazed we havent cottoned on.

Ah yes - the tactics a lot of teams are able to rely on, bar Leeds. We will catch on in 2016...

Shut down M.Monaghan, shut down Warrington (apart from the inevitable kicks to Joel Monaghan for at least one try) so plenty of energy needed at PTB defence. Bailey, when he's on his game, is actually one of our best at this, would be tempted to start him at LF, or at least rotate him with Delaney.
We all know McGuire will be playing so there's no point naming a team without him. So Burrow on the bench, ideally in his best role as impact player, but with the option of just replacing McGuire if he's terrible after 20 minutes.
No idea about the fourth sub. None of Sutcliffe, Achurch or S.Ward have stood out of late.

We will also need to protect Hall at all times from kicks. That is a tactic that Warrington have had particular success against us on over the last couple of seasons, with Monaghan beating Hall numerous times. It's not hard to set yourself as a team to stop that.

Really, Monaghan is consistently near the top of the tries list & is record for the Wolves is outstanding. That suggests to me that it's harder than you suggest to deal with it.

And are all those tries from kicks in the air? There is no doubt his record is outstanding.

| No, not all Monaghan's tries are from kicks in the air, but a good number are, as are Hall's & any other team in superleague.
We conceded 2 from kicks on Friday - not both inn the air I grant you & we scored 2 ourselves from kicks again not both in the air.
Evidence I'd say that defending kicks is not as easy as maybe you suggested.

Your right, kicks are a lottery, more so with bouncing balls. But kicks to your winger, if his team mates are set up right, should be easier to contend with. This doesn't always happen, as the flow of the game dictates it, defences are always moving. However, the fact that Monaghan has had success over Hall numerous occasions in recent times, suggests it should be a tactic we as a team consciously defend.

| It doesn't help that the defender closest to Hall is often Burrow. Mind you when it was Senior it wasn't much better.
Aerial defence was not on of Senior's strong points but he more than made up for it in other ways.
