I disagree. With a fit Watkins on-form and after a win against Saints, Leeds looked capable of making the top 4. Admittedly this was a long time ago.

Exactly. It wasn't six weeks back that was the 5th game of the season. Hardly a time to make predictions.

100% fair point to make but the current circumstances & performances are very much pointing to our top 4 campaign being long gone.

| I disagree, its a good team if all fit.
Point is though, why do we look like a total shambles when we have injuries?

Correct, we would still have no idea, as we have been playing 5 drives, then a kick. This is not the way we have played over the years.

The chances of fielding a full side are zero-10% its madness to suggest something that is very unlikely to happen - same for every side.
Leeds' injuries have been no worse than Cas./Hull/Widnes etc.

If this is a 5 match mini season, it looks to me like the initial response from the players is they no longer wish to be coached by Barry Eaton and Chev Walker

I very much doubt Chev Coaches much mate he's just a messenger like Plume used to be McD & Eaton are the brains trust.

I'm sure you are right. I don't believe McD does much coaching was the point I was trying to get across.
Aloof, guru like man management yes, coaching not so much. I think this group of players now both want and need to learn more

| It's now a 4 game mini season and apparently that's very exciting for all.
Cas next week won't kick penalty goals like Wigan did last night and I dread to think what score will end up. So after next week it will be a 3 game mini season and will be all to play for and apparently very exciting for all.

| It was a bit daft of GH to decide the last 5 games were some kind of miniseason. It would have been more correct to talk about such a thing before we played Hudds and Cats, as they are currently our main competitiors, and had we won both we wouldn't even be discussing the rest of the year. The last 5 fixtures included two games against Wigan and Cas that a confident, full-strength Leeds could easily lose, so the next meaningful 'mini-league' was always going to be our last three games.
I wonder if GH has got so used to the team eventually turning things round that he's taking it all a bit for granted. Without a Segeyaro-esque signing, which looks unlikely, its hard to see how we turn around this season. By this point in 2016 we'd started winning, whereas Sts aside we seem to be getting worse.
