The games in Six weeks time,so your old fellas will be knackered by then,Hardaker and the big lad on the wing are decent,will give you that.

Our pack will be licking their lips at getting stuck in to your lot,setting it up for our lightning backs!
I like Headingly so should be a great day out,i will concede your favourites ,but you never know!

Tell us how you really feel

As for the rest of the draw,

Warrington and Widnes will go through, Widnes might have a cheeky chance of a final if they draw Wire in the semis IMO.

As for Wigan and Castleford, if played now would be a very good tight contest, much depends on how well Cas are still performing when the game finally comes around. That along with home advantage means probably a Wigan win (but likewise their trip to Oz might finally start taking a toil on them by then).

I could have adjusted the stats to take into account the much reduced chances of drawing non-SL rabble opposition in Round 5 and the Quarter Finals on the basis that most of them have already been knocked out of the competition. But I didn't, hence the earlier "7 times out of 26" stat.

My personal opinion is the only luck worth hoping for is getting a home draw and in that particular department, Leeds have done extremely well over the past decade in securing a home draw 18 times out of a possible 26. Only a moron would declare such a record as "unlucky" or lacking context and there are plenty of morons among Rhinos fans on this forum.

Oh childish name calling, dear me billy standards are slipping.

Me by plenty.

Why do you spend so much time on here then? Surely if it's full of morons, you'd find a more enjoyable way to spend your time. Moron is as moron does and to keep coming back to a place full or morons to point out they're morons probably makes you the biggest moron.

But in previous debates about this topic this year people have been talking about the last couple of years.....only you have harked back to 2005 for your own self interest.

Note you highlighted Hardaker's tweet. Note that before today's draw that in HIS TIME at the club Leeds had a 5 Home/5 Away draw record with only 1 non SL club before the QF stages.

How would you categorise that?
Lucky, unlucky, even?

Get a life mate....us Leythers can't wait, testing ourselves against one of the best teams in Super League !

Don't you mean 'THE' best team in Super League?

With all due respect, not every club has a record of securing 18 home draws out of the last 26 therefore any "unlucky" claims are probably based upon a smidgen of rationality.

Was that a "YES... I also believe Leeds are unlucky in CC draws?"

They are now!

Getting a life doesn't involve attending RL fixtures in the middle of summer and it certainly doesn't involve attending that particular fixture but thanks for the invite anyhow. Good luck in two months time (or whenever it is to be played) and enjoy your trip over to Headingley.
