| Big test for Leeds. Chance to finally beat one of the contenders for the title (sorry Cas, you were never a contender) and start a charge.
Leeds by 8 for me.

Louis Anderson and Ben Harrison missing tonight, I'd say thats 'less' than full strength...2 key players who are always in the starting line up.
And before someone says,i know your injuries are far worse than ours.

I really don't know what your getting at... ."he looks out of place in the scrum" What do you actually think happens in a scrum? A rugby league scrum is a prop forwards breather. I didn't realise Burrow was moving to Union.
Its quite plain and simple Burrow is a scrum half that can fill in at hooker, hence why has played there his whole career and consistently been one of the top scrum halves in SL. Granted he doesn't look the player he was a few years back but that doesn't mean he needs to find a new position.

I disagree, Castleford were just soft when Warrington were machines. Warrington WILL be just as good tonight as they were against Cas. Cas just got bullied and it was men against boys. Warrington won the collision, won the ruck and Castleford didn't seem to want to do anything about it. Leeds will man up tonight and fight fire with fire. Whether we have the technical ability to match Warrington is a different matter but JP, Kylie, JJB, Buderus won't roll over as easily as Cas did.

Didn't Pat Richards win it last year? i don't think Briers has ever won it mate.
Otherwise agree with you it will be a cracker

30th July 2010 at home to Wigan in Round 24. Sinfield and McGuire were the starting halves.

Burrow was on the bench - as implied in the answer to the question - but it was his second attempt at a comeback as he returned from a knee injury.
He had missed nine then came on as sub away at Hull KR, then missed the next two - then subbed again V Wigan before returning to the starting line-up for the remainder of the season.
