| Smith-Donald is interesting. Smith was very good I thought yesterday. He always looks like he's going to make something happen. Delaney is a lump of not much though.

Trouble with that though is the players are not honest when it comes to a final. They'll lie about niggling injuries just to play in a final.

Re Delaney - I was hoping for more from him (as he was an unknown quantity to me from the NRL) but so far in to his Leeds career he is just a big, no frills, solid unit. The equivalent of playing Carl Ablett at centre which whilst OK is not what I was hoping for if I'm being honest.
I hope by the time his (Delaney) contract is up Leeds have unearthed a home grown prospect to replace him (or perhaps try Smith there again) as I trust Leeds will be filling their reduced quota spots with better quality than he brings.

| TBH Delaney is one of those players that disproves the myth of NRL supermen. There is as much gap between him and the likes of Inglis as there would be with Shenton. I've nothing against him but he got the ball in a bit of space at least once yesterday and didn't look like asking any questions of the defence. Unlike the 90 year old bald bloke on the other side of the field.

| I like Delaney. What you see is what you get.... a hard grafting centre who puts an honest shift in. Sure, he'll never be a showboater a la Solomona, or dance around like McGuire, but you need the players who can play no nonsense RL to lay the platform for the others.
And Delaney certainly does that as far as I'm concerned. If Leeds ever manage to get an in form winger outside him, I reckon we could see one or two people change their tune.
Smith in for Delaney? I think we need to take Warrington a wee bit more seriously than that!

A shame the other Bernard isn't still with us. Perhaps not.

If that is aimed at me, go back and read again what I said rather than what you think I said.

| I dont mind Delaney personally. As said above he's solid.
TBF its always hard in modern times to be a centre at Leeds because we have had Keith Senior on the opposie side for 11 years. Thats a hell of a lot to live up to because he's still probably the best centre in the Super League.

| Whilst i agree with some posters that Clarkson has earned his spot, i strongly doubt if all other players are fit, which is how it is looking that young Chris will get a shirt at all. 18th man - great experience.
Webb
Donald
Delaney
Senior
Hall
McGuire
Burrow
Leuluai
Buderus
Peacock
Ablett
JJB
Sinfield
Ali
Eastwood
Bailey
Diskin
All prior knowledge aside, in terms of winning the game, you have to pick your strongest squad. To me that includes Ali and Eastwood regardless of fitness or future commitment, they are both simply too good to leave out.
Clarkson will get another chance, just like Sinfield, just like McGuire.

You ruined your quite astute opinions by leaving out Smith for Diskin. There is no way Smith can be left out of the 17 !!!! (IMO) Diskin on the other hand can be (IMO).
Please please consider switching wingers again so that Donald gets some quality ball from Senior on the left in the space he needs. Hall can continue to run over his opposition with or without Senior on the right wing.

| twas not an error. It was a judgement call.
Smith got the vote this week and played well, I expect Donald to get the nod and enjoy the wide open spaces and tired legs at wembley.
Diskin if fit is a certainty and rightly should be.
However there are two games to go first and the decision may be made for bluey.
