The demand for Gareth Carvell. Are we back in 2006?

Really dreading this one. Can see it being over as a contest by half time if you guys play as you can.

We were crap for most of Sundays game, AIton likely to missout according to radio tonight, McDermott says he does not want to risk carrying injuries and strapping players up !!!!!! I wonder if he's forgot the play offs at weeegan.

Maybe he has learned his lesson. If that happens to be, then great.

Was thinking that if we got plenty of ball to the right side then Watkins and Briscoe could fill their boots against Atkins and Riley. Alas the latter is dropped (not before time IMO, think he's been very fortunate to be at a top 4 team) but should still be looking towards that side. Looks like they'll be playing a young lad called Ormsby and it's not the easiest introduction to SL vs Watkins & Briscoe, even if he applies himself well he's still got the issue of Atkins defending inside him and the Wire board aren't too impressed with his showings of late.

Can see Watkins & Briscoe possibly getting us 3/4 tries and pushing us towards 30+ points and enough for the win.

What about the lethal combination of moon and hall ?

Good too, but should be a tougher task up against J.Monaghan & Bridge. One they should still win but the other match-up on the right side looks even more promising.

That's what we all want to hear.

BUT.....

why did Bailey place against KR, he wasnt right and was pulling up all the time. His first stint off the bench lasted seven minutes. So I expect him not to feature Friday under Mac's new policy.

Bridge is an awful defender at times. Monaghan v Hall is a good contest. Bridge v Moon is a non-contest when Leeds have the ball. Bridge is alright going the other way though.

Wire still look like they can score plenty of points, I would be worried about how many they might ship in the process. I don't think they'll be anything like as poor as last week though.

Dangers of over-interpreting the outcome of one game.

He might have had cramp. Or an erection he couldn't get rid of. Could be fine for Friday.

There's plenty that'd tell you Bailey is something of a softcock.

Classic bailey
