Quote Marty Grrrrrrrrrr!="Marty Grrrrrrrrrr!"Jeez peoples mentalities. Maybe Leeds should pull out of Super League just play Hunslet, Stanningley and Milford and Oulton. We don't want to test ourselves after all.
The trip to Melbourne was superb. All the players I spoke to after the game said it had been an amazing week one they would want to do regularly. The young players in the squad will benefit from it greatly.
It's amazing how the people that moan about the quality of SL then moan when we play superior opposition. What the hell do people want???
Wonder why football has Champions League??? To improve you have to play the best.'"
We have no chance to pull out of league games, we had a choice not to do this game.
The league is our bread and butter. If we end up outside the top 4 I wonder how many of the same posters who were pro-WCC will be pointing the finger at the squad saying players X, Y and Z need to be let go.
And it is largely the timing that I really disliked. You can say it's a chance to test themselves, but flying over to Aus the day after a league game and landing less than a week before the game, only taking 19 players, then letting the Aussies take the mick with the late ref change. That's not a proper test that's just dumb. I'm not really fussed about it but if you want to go over there for games do it right. I'd also argue the usual line "they'll have learnt loads".....I don't think you do in one single game and whatever they do learn will be offset by not playing that level of opposition again for a quite a long time.
