Good decision, its a dead rubber anyway let him put his feet up for a week and get ready for a last push i would apply the same to anyone carrying knocks.

Yeah I get the feeling the change of decision came from the club who know that Salford at home presents a strong chance to clinch that 2nd spot, no point risking missing that when the chances of avoiding a ban completely must've been slim. Burrow for possibly the reasons I suggested previously wanted to challenge it.

How is it a dead rubber?

It's a chance to get the two points that confirms a home semi and also end the hoodoo and beat Cas for the first time in God knows how long.

Smart decision for rob not challenge the ban. Even if provoked it's still a head butt. Not quite a serious nutting by Glasgow standards, but never the less contact made with the head. Still it wiped the s of the hull players face, which seemed to me me to justify robs efforts. Seems the minor incident is being likened by some posters as akin to the JFK shooting.

I suspect it's a 'dead rubber' to some Leeds fans because they have no confidence in a McDermott coached Leeds getting one over a Powell coached Castleford at present, so choose to pretend it still doesn't matter yet.

Could be the final Cas V Leeds meeting in 2017 so the pretense could yet continue into another year.

Thanks for the concern but im only interested now in beating Cas where it matters if we get there. No better place to break the 'hoodoo' for me and you get a lovely little prize at the end of it for doing so icon_smile.gif

I know, can just see Wigan sliding into 4th spot and doing them in the Semi Finals icon_smile.gif

Whilst it's not a dead rubber for us, if we do happen to win this week it'll just be dismissed because Cas have nothing to play for and it won't convince anyone who thinks Leeds can't beat Cas when it matters to alter that opinion especially if they rest 2/3 starters again this week.

If we won this week but lost to them in the GF i would be gutted. Really not fussed this week and thats the truth it means little.

Hull KR Chairman Neil Hudgell, August 26th, 2014 said.. "In fact, the days of us signing any players from across the river are over. Our fans are loyal, passionate and only interested in one club. Taking players from our nearest rivals doesn't fit in with that brief.":8570.jpg



Quote: WF Rhino "So basically a one match ban then. Think we can all agree that's a fair trade for wiping the smug smirk from Connor's face.'"

A Challenge Cup winning smirk you mean?

Because it is basically a loose loose for Leeds
If we loose then everyone will bang on about how we cant beat Cas and it could knock our confidence
If we win then it will eliminate any complacency Cas would have if we meet them in the GF

We will probably beat Salford and/or Huds so this game isnt crucial at all

It could be a repeat of this years CC Final quite easily imo.
As for Burrow it seems Connor wound him up as that`s what he does and Burrow fell for it.
The fact there was quite alot of head high hits that went unoticed by the panel says alot really.
The same 2 points are on offer against Cas this week as they are against Salford the following week.
But realistically we have more chance of getting them against Salford.
I also feel we might rest the likes of McGuire, Parcell, Watkins and Cuthbertson against Huddersfield the week before the semi.

The odds on us not getting 2nd now must be massive. Even if we lose at Cas we have a Salford team in free fall at home and a Hudds team probably on the beach by the final week.

Even if we somehow don't manage to pick up a single point, Hull and Wakey need to go 3 from 3 and that's going to be tough given their fixtures including facing each other where one is guaranteed to drop points.

There's even a real possibility that Leeds lose on Friday yet walk off the pitch with 2nd spot guaranteed if Saints beat Wakey and Wigan beat Hull which I wouldn't be surprised to see play out that way. So whilst it's not a dead rubber for us, the race for 2nd is pretty much non existent.

Your job is to say to yourself on a job interview does the hiring manager likes me or not. If you aren't a particular manager's cup of tea, you haven't failed -- you've dodged a bullet.:icons077e_files/5454-3678dentheman-msnicons.jpg



What happened to Darren Turner - another wind up merchant - will happen to Connor.
