Think Oledzki needs to start this one to combat Walmsley.

I remember his Steve Ganson impersonation when Warrington came to Headingley Well.
Talk about a screw job!

Who is ref for tomorrow night? Has it been released yet?

er .... its kendall

Really?

I remember Mik getting splattered trying to front up Kasiano… hope he fares better this time!

If I was Agar, I’d be telling Tetevano to put it on Walmsley early doors, and watch his bottle go a bit. I’ll await the comments about how amazing Walmsley is, and he’s one of the best props in the world, but let’s see when he’s up against it.

Thing is we’ll be hunting him as a pack and he is going to get hammered more than once. He’s good enough to ride it but I cannot see him galloping down our middle again.

Looking forward to the Cats/KR game. Love this time of year.

Thought KR were there own worse enemy blowing 3 or 4 chances at the Catalans line.
Cats nothing special but will look better with Tomkins in there.
Would have preferred to have played them in the semis.

Thing about Cats is that they’re massive and with two good half backs. Very difficult team to handle.

Team-wise we aren’t as good as Cats or Saints this year - but it’s all down to the performance now.

I think we need to take a chance on a few players and get them out there

Myler
Briscoe Newman Hurrell Handley
Lui Leeming
Oledski Dwyer Prior
Martin Mellor
Tetevano

Vuniyayawa Holroyd Smith Donaldson

Agar considering tweaks to team this week.For me if Hurrell plays it has to be in the centre. We have to stack the bench with forwards. The only way Leeds win this game is to be dominant in the pack stop saints go forward denying their halves space and have good field position and a high completion rate.

Would consider looking at Tetevano or Oledski playing same minutes as Walmsley and trying to sicken him every time he gets the ball. Hopefully within the rules lol

Uncanny

I would leave Hurrell out tbh.

After last week, I have hope. Lads with game time under their belt and some confidence too.

It depends whether Mellor, Hurrell and King are fit enough to give value in a game of this magnitude. Agar's made reference to how fresh the squad is as a whole - but there are several players there who require surgery and a couple still recovering form from injury and/or COVID.

Personally I don't think we have enough at half back for this. Lui has been great but he's not fit. Leeming has been great filling in but he is a 9. If Gale could have got back in the side I'd have felt happier because not only do we have a specialist 7 but it also puts Dwyer on the bench as an impact runner where he belongs. He is going to have to play very well out of DH tonight for us to stand a chance.

Going to be fascinating down the middle; we were embarrassed last time out but I don't think Mik, Holroyd, Prior, Tet or Smith are about to let that happen again TBH. We must stay disciplined though.

Looking forward to Tet and Mik giving Walmsley some pasty tonight. As long as we’re competitive and it’s a good game I’ll be happy
