| Quote: Keith Swiftcorn "Several handbags are examined and exchanged by the Saints and Wigan players at the weekend resulting in a complete overreaction by officialdom. The game has turned softcock and is run by morons these days.
There aren't many regular season games at shedingley which whet the appetite but Wigan at home is definitely one of them - probably the only one. Thanks to moronic officialdom handing out bans (wouldn't have happened if there were CC Semis, CC Final, SL playoff's or SLGF just around the corner for far more insidious and dangerous offences being committed), the game on Friday has now been ruined and also rendered even more meaningless.
Another good reason for never buying a season ticket for regular round fixtures.
Keith's regular season paid attendance this season is confirmed as ZERO.'"
I can confirm that HEADINGLEY hasn't missed you in the slightest, I hope your self imposed exile continues for the rest of your very sad little life

| I wholeheartedly agree with Mr Swiftcorn regarding the susupensions handed out.
It was merely a "handbags" situation.........no thuggery or evil intent.
The ref should merely have sin binned them to cool off and see a bit of sense. The disciplinary panel should also stop being influenced by hyped up media comments.
Now Wigan, and prospective spectators are deprived watching the standout team of the season at full strength, playing some really attractive football.
I also suspect that, psychologically, it will be hard for Leeds to raise their game and could make it more difficult to get a win.

The Bans were handed out because:-
1. Hock is a Thug and his Record speaks for itself.
2. The 2 Fighting were nothing to do with the original incident.
3. It's in the Law Book.
So they deserve to be made weaker, it's called Punishment.

Yep, you have convinced me. I am sure you would be saying exactly the same if it was any other club than Wigan...... no really.

| So let me make sure I'm understanding this correctly. Wigan - already missing three forwards with injury - having three more suspended gives Leeds less chance of winning? Positively Swiftcornesque logic. Sounds like a Leeds fan getting their excuses in early.

If you don't bother to go to the game when you live in the locality then you are not really a fan and therefore your views are invalid. It's simple.:icons39ad_files/4821-1859san_c-msnicons.jpg |

| Should be a very interesting game... Leeds are still a dangerous team, and we are having to play a weaker pack. Can't wait...

| Think the backs will more than likely line up as follows -
Webb
Smith, Ablett, Hardaker, Hall
Sinfield, McGuire
Ablett to be on that side to match up against Carmont even though we know this means a lack of ball for Hall in attack.
In the forwards it all depends on who he picks at loose. JJB, Hauraki and Clarkson (has been poor coming off the bench this season so maybe a return to starting loose like last year might see an improvement?) are all options but given the opposition it should definately be Bailey against Wigan.
P.S. No it WON'T be Sinfield with Burrow starting in the halves.
Leuluai, Lunt, Peacock
JJB, Delaney
Bailey
SUBS - Burrow, Moore, Hauraki, Griffin
But this being McDermott it wouldn't surprise me to see him go back to Burrow starting with Lunt on the bench. I hope not but i'm half expecting it.
Leeds have the edge in personnel due to Wigan's depleted forwards options i think, but they've still got Finch and Tommy Leuluai to run things and we have to be smart when we are kicking from our own half (which i suspect based on our last few performances we might have to do quite a bit of), aim for Gelling to bring the ball back because i don't want to see Charnley or Tomkins running it back at us with a bit of open field.

For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled.
For 27 - 0 you get a trophy
For 75 - 0 you get sod all.
Wigan had eight in a row
Saints have five in a row:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3076.jpg |

Kicking to Gelling may not be good option, he has really good stats for his kick returns and metres made.

That may be true, but I'd still choose to kick deep to him rather than Charnley or Tomkins. I'd also switch Hall to right wing for the game (he was more than ok there for England) to attack Gelling, because he looks so exploitable as a winger.

| Which one of Tomkins, Charnley and Gelling do you least want taking that first carry on tackle two? My vote would be with Charnley on that one, so that's where Leeds should be kicking. Let the wingers bring the ball back and be disciplined with the chase. Make Tomkins have to play against a set defensive line rather than in broken field.

| Darn you Gilder, that almost sounds like a gameplan and has no place at the Rhinos these days. You just don't play by the rules do you....

Yeah it more of a compliment to Tomkins and Charnley than a disrespect to Gelling who to be honest i haven't see loads of as yet.
Either way we have to put good kicks in down field. You can be facing a team with a depleted forward pack but any team will struggle to beat them if you allow them to start sets up near their own 40m line or better, and if we kick it straight into the hands of Tomkins and Charnley that is what could happen.
