Kelly was offered a 2 year deal at manly from next season,but opted to stay as he and his family are happy here.Still Iam sure you watch him every week and will know how he plays,If you dont see it maybe you should go to specsavers.

Utter BS. So his agent says right? This shows how deluded some are!

Ticket sales look to be going really well for Leeds. Much better than last years by the looks of it?

He might be over hyped, that is true, but he is exciting to watch, which to be fair is what spectators pay for. What isn't debatable however, is that he came from the NRL, he was wanted back by the NRL, so therefore it is wrong to say they would not touch him.

The only way I can see a HKR win is by a fantastic 17-man showing. Whether Kelly plays well, or indeed plays at all, is of relatively minor importance in comparison.

And Leeds should expect HKR to play the game of their lives. I don't think this'll be an easy game by any stretch.

When we play well as a team we can match anyone when we don't were terrible hence getting beat 60-0 at Wigan and then going there the following week and beating them we've beaten Wigan Wire and Catalans twice also Saints but have also lost to Wakefield Widnes and Salford

Without a doubt HKR will be fired up as you say; I'm also hoping the whirlwind Leeds start combined with the occassion overwhelming HKR will more than counteract that. Here's hoping Cuthbertson doesn't do 'a Buderus' with his first touch.

Looking forward to this game, with so many stalwarts leaving and a few out injured I think our intensity will be very high ,got to be able to control our enthusiasm

Key for HKR in their cup wins has been some tenacious defence. In the first 30 mins vs Warrington they could've been 3 scores down with the possession Wire had near KR's goal line. However doing that on the compact Headingley pitch is one thing, but the size of the Wembley pitch is another kettle of fish especially against this Leeds side who I think showed vs Saints that we will still play our attacking style despite the occasion. We're just as likely to score a try from 70m out as we are 7m away so it makes life so much harder for the opposition defence when they aren't just dealing with run of the mill-up the middle-complete the set rugby. Just can't see them being able to contain us to few enough points (less than 20) to win as I think defensively we've improved in the cup matches that we won't ship many in at our end.

Headingley's hardly compact is it?

I was always under the impression it was pretty much full size. Much like myself.

This is the best Leeds side I have ever seen! ......In fact, this is the best rugby league side I have ever seen (including Australia)! ......And to think, some of your supporters were actually saying that your coach should walk early on in the season!!!! ......Talk about being complacent and overly use to winning!!!! ......Haha!!!! ......Those that did don't know a good thing if it bit them on the nose! .......Get a grip Leeds fans who actually question your coach and the way your team plays in 2015! ......You are without a doubt the best team within the world today! .......That said, Cup final day is a completely different kettle of fish! ......Haha! ......Come on Rovers! .......Fingers crossed!

Indeed. And there has been a deafening silence from this group of keyboard coaches in showing any credit for what Big Mac has achieved so far this season. It seems they are waiting for Leeds to slip up before they start on him again. If we don't win the treble it will be the coaches fault for sure. When Mac first came he tried to get us to play the same way but the team were not quite ready for it, but BM was slated for playing "Harlem globetrotters" stuff with no structure and these same critics have been consistently calling for a new coach since.

I was on here at Easter saying how structured we were and his good BM had done. however to say they weren't ready is absolute rubbish. he's had 5 years with more or less the same players.

Like most jobs you are judged on results.

This season could still go all 2005 on us.
