I'm not worried about the backs,
Full back - covered by Jones Bishop
Wing - covered by Jones Bishop and Watkins
Centre - covered by Watkins, Coady and Ablett
Stand off - covered by Sinfield and Webb
Scrum Half - covered by McGuire and McShane

This is the strongest squad I've seen at Leeds for a long time. Unless we get 3 or 4 injuries in one position (which would be freakish) we'll be fine

If Abletts fit he starts imo and so should Disko.

1. Brent Webb

2. Scott Donald
3. Brett Delaney
4. Keith Senior
5. Ryan Hall

6. Danny McGuire
7. Rob Burrow

8. Kylie Leulaui
14. Matt Diskin
19. Luke Burgess
11. Jamie Jones-Buchanan
18. Carl Ablett
13. Kevin Sinfield

9. Danny Buderus
12. Ali Lauitiiti
15. Greg Eastwood
16. Ryan Bailey

Frightening bench.

Why Should Disko start Rhinoms?

There can be no room for sentiment. Buderus is the better player they are both fully fit, it's a no brainer.

Before you all start, i am not slating Disko in anyway, i am stating my opinion. I know the southstander mafia have this thing about been loyal etc, but it's a squad game, disko will get plenty of game time throughout the year I am sure.

IMO id go with Kirke instead of Bailey i think he gives us more go forward

Given that he finished last season as the form 9 in the comp and plus the fact having him and Buderus in the 17 works better imo when Disko starts as was shown during the Bulls match.
Oh and also seeing as Buderus hasn't played since Wigan away how does he warrant a starting spot???

i wouldn't have bailey in the 17, i would prefer kirke and ablett over him

There aren't any props on that bench (Kirke at a push, but you need two, and Eastwood is *not* best used as a rotation prop) . Bailey for Diskin at least.

Seriously, I'm a fan of Matt Diskin, but he's a complete waste of a bench spot when Buderus is fit.

kirke has played as an interchange prop plenty of times for leeds. eastwood also played pretty much all of last season as a prop for the doggies in the nrl

Jones Bishop is on loan at quins with no recall clause (as was pointed out to me the other day)

could be wrong but i'm sure i read somewhere there was a 24 hour recall clause.
could be my memory playing tricks though ...................................

I thought the same thing mate.
If it's not the case then we have Donald,Watkins and young Tom Bush who can cover there.

I thought the same thing too, and for once in my life my memory has been proved correct! 4.134765625:5
