I heard that the entire playing squad, coaching staff, backroom staff, stadium, training facilities and fan base are going to Warrington in a straight swap for Kevin Penney. The only one staying is Kevin Sinfield. That's why he was waving goodbye to the South Stand, because he knows it'll be at Wire next week.

On a slightly more serious note (I know, but someone had to...)

Is it just coincidence that the twice Leeds have looked particularly sharp in the last month or so (first half at Murrayfield, the 80 minutes last night) it has been when Sinfield was at stand off and partnering either Burrow or McGuire?

IMO it is just coincidence, and the past few years suggest that as well.

He was waving because hes off to france in a couple of weeks. I bet you didn't here him say au revoir aswell did you?

Dragging this thread back up to a decent level, how good was Sinfield with ball in hand last night? Very clinical and precise distribution. Classy. Great goal kicking again too. A man who can be relied on.

Do you not think we look a little more direct and less lateral with Sinfield calling the shots at first receiver?

I think your naive, but thats just my opinion.

We look far better without the Burrow, McGuire half back combination.

We look a lot better without the Sinfield/Burrow/mcGuire half back combination

When was that?

I thought it was the best game he had all season last night and my MOM. We did looked a lot more organised and structured yesterday but how much of that was down to Sinfield and how much is down to the extra time between games I don't know.

I thought he was our best player last night. He showed a great short passing game, something he is by far the best in the team at.

You thought england were gonna win the world cup.
