I've said similar on another thread.

It doesn't matter what changes are made in the backs....until we have a pack of fired up hard hitting dominant forwards we will continue to be shafted.

Once we have a new coach (not long now

) I would be tempted to bring in Singleton, Daniel Smith, Hood, Luke Ambler and Kyle Amor and without a doubt stick Bailey in at LF. So what if they get beaten a few times ....the future pack should be given as much game time as possible now.

Ward should at least be on the bench.

Tired of reading Sinfield back to 13.He has insisted he plays at 6 and will not go back to playing loose forward.Player power rules at Headingley.

Desperate shame that Hardaker is considered the future at Leeds. Ouch.

But not quite as sickeningly predictable as the huge spike in your post count after a Rhinos' defeat

To be fair i think Ward is more considered the future than anyone, but Hardaker is seen as being a big player for us in the future and can still be if he's used and coached correctly. I think everybody knows now that he shouldn't stay in the centres for much longer but the lad is talented i personally thought at the beginning of the season that he should end up in one of the pivot positions like full back because he does have that x-factor about him that would be better suited there.

I'd like to see Hardaker at fullback but at the minute he couldn't just slot straight in because Webb plays like an extra half and Hardaker can't even pass to his winger let alone throw cut out passes. Leeds would have to change their whole approach on attack because Hardaker at fullback with McGuire and Sinfield as the halves would mean we are even less creative than we are at the minute. Ward to loose (or Sinfield back to loose with Ward at 6) could potentially allow it to happen. What is Ward's best position? 6 or 13?

Stevie Ward is back in the 19 man squad for friday barring any injuries in training this week

I would like to see him start at either 6 or 13 and with Burrow given a start at 7 to see how he takes his chance there rather than just putting Stevie at 7 merely so that he is out on the park

Regardind how they would shape up defensively if all 3 were on the field at the same time.IMO i would have Sinny defending more down the middle than out wide where he is more vulnerable

would like to see Chisolm or Keinhorst be given a chance, if anything just too add some pace to the right wing if Bjb isnt fit.

Good to hear TBB hopefully he'll continue to show his potential and cement a place in the 17 for the rest of the year.

It was stated in the programe for the Wigan game that Ward was about to start his A levels for the next couple of weeks then would start fulltime training with the 1st team squad. That may explain his absence the ladt couple of months.

would definitely put ward back into team at 13, and i dont agree with moving zak out of the centres i would move him to right centre then when he does use his very good side step he is taking the ball to his winger an will therefore be easier for him to pass to his winger (BJB) and in turn promote young keinhorst to left centre and allow ablett to move back into the SR and hope webb can get his act together at FB

i'd agree on that line up in the threequarters and let's face it Webb [uIS[/u unlikely to be dropped.

However these changes are not going to solve anything. The forwards are a much more substantial problem.....and the coach's methods and ability to motivate/inspire are the biggest problem of all. If the CEO won't dispense with his services, sack the CEO.
