Quote: fun time frankie "Your not in a false position everybody has had injuries and I don't buy the training ground been a major factor in were you are you haven't been good enough simple one thing I do agree with is that you'll sail through probably losing 1 at most'"


Of course we're in a false position. We've won 5 out of 6 including Hull and Wigan who were top at the time. We are the form side. The backs had not trained with the forwards until the Wakey away game. Apart from Stevie Ward (maybe McGuire and Moon), we are at full strength. Something we haven't been all season. It's a title winning side now at the wrong end of the table.

We should treat all these games as knock out cup matches in which we have a reasonable history.

A title winning side without a strong 6 (or 13).

Quote: Him "You're not requesting which club to play, just that you'd be away from home. As others have said, Wigan and I'm sure Hull have requested similar in the past.'"


Not requesting who we play, but the order in which they are played. Staring out by playing three SL teams on the bounce didn't do us any favours last time around. Our pitch was re-laid in June - and it looks very good too.

The above statement has a grain of truth in it; If (and its a big if) they could have won those narrow games that they had lost, then the team would be jockeying with Staints aiming to get into the top four.Now that would have been a false position.The key to a successful middle 8 campaign lies with not who we play home or away,but keeping a fit squad together.God help us if we lose Burrow, Hall, or Segeyaro to name but 3.

The key phase in the season was the easter period. The season was at a crossroads. Win the games at easter (all winnable with our form and team at the time) and we put ourselves in a position at that stage of the season where we could challenge top 4. Instead we lost the games, all of them. Which took us down the route of battling to get out of the bottom 2 and into the top8. From there injuries and poor confidence compounded and it's been a struggle ever since.

Interestingly hull went totally the other way. After a decent few games to start they'd fallen back and at easter were down a big score to Hull KR, but then they came back to win the game. Over something like the next 16 games they only lost one (against us) which catapulted them to the top and the CC semi. Their season is built on that run, which start with the derby day comeback. If they'd lost they could have just as easily slid into mid table mediocrity again.

Looking like it'll be Featherstone, coming up to HT and they're beating Bradford 16-0.

Batley comfortably beating Swinton 30-6

Last December when Leeds duel reg with Featherstone was announced

Quote: Finglas "Surprised it's allowed given that there is a slim possibility that Leeds could play fev in the middle eights'"


Quote: Finglas "Not likely though is it?'"


Quote: Finglas "Are they any DR agreements between teams who have a realistic chance of meeting in the Middle 8's?'"


Oops!

I think it's a good result. 2 very important factors in the last week are getting the extra home game and not having to deal with the derby at odsal are 2 big difference makers.

True. Whilst Fev have finished above them in the table and beaten them comfortably today does anybody think they present the same threat for any of the SL clubs & Leigh that Bradford might have done?

Will be interesting to see the Featherstone lineup vs us (which might be the first game). Baldwinson, Mullally, Golding and Luke Briscoe all playing today.
