Why cant some people just be happy that we are playing pretty well?
Some seem more happy that they were right to back the coach than that we actually won

We are playing well but 1986 kangaroos we are not, can we leave it there?

Im happy. But then im an easily pleased Rhinos fan. Plus my Stanningley U8's team absolutely destroyed the team we played at half time. Good night all round!

Probably off somewhere, trying to convince themselves and others that you said something completely different, just like they've been doing for the last few weeks.

Some have taken dogs abuse for over 12 months saying we'd be challenging when we had a proper pre-season....and looks what's happened with a proper preseason we are near the top

And again.. you seem happier that you were 'right' than that we won

Also playing 3 props didnt really work in our favour, we lost a lot of collision against a Wigan pack missing a few big hitters, conceeded two tries cuased by tired defenders not pushing across, and its not like Delaney played so well that it justified going with 5 backrowers

People get so precious and knickers in a twist. I would say last night, and it deserves credit, is the first game this season yet, where we have done something that wasn't expected. Previous results go exactly to what the majority expected, but last night was definitely a bonus result to what the majority thought. Another one next week and people are in entitled to crow a little territory.

A cursory glance at the prediction thread would suggest the vast majority thought it would be a Leeds win.

That was on the basis of a weakened Wigan team. I was talking more about preseason predictions.

Although I do take something back on my previous comment, as the Cas result was also a surprise, as no one expected us to be quite that bad.

It is also worth noting that Wakefield last year hammered a weakened Wigan team around the same time.

Nah not having it.....did you do a straw poll before the season started of which games we were expected to win? We also had players missing last night, not as many as Wigan, but missing nonetheless.

Before the season started I doubt anyone could have predicted how good Cas were going to be, another shallacking dished out last nigh.

We don't need a straw poll, we have a predictions thread on the finishing positions, which is in this board. So yes in answer to your questions. Look at it.

Have to admit I was wrong, expected to win 2 of the 4, give credit to Mac and the team for turning things around after the Cas Mess, which I didn't think they were capable of. They do look to be trying to play a bit more creative as well which deserves mention. The "poor" performances against Leigh and Salford actually now look OK, considering the good results those teams have had. However this does not change my opinion on the team needing a reshuffle with new faces brought in whether from the academy or signings (really really want a new half back, even if it's a signing for next season). The Wigan team last night was weak, i still expect a fully fit Wigan to beat a fully fit Leeds by a couple of scores (hope I'm wrong) The big test for me is the next match v Cas, we have a lot of players back, look to be finding a new post 2015 identity and will be looking for revenge.

Other than that keep it up Leeds, doing well (and proven me wrong)

Rosco, have you learned nothing from other posters? NEVER admit you're wrong - just pretend you never said it

Still can't see where anyone states that we'd not beat Wigan at home.
