I understand what you're saying but do you understand that league placings now and results in Feb have little to no bearing on a semi final played in 9 weeks time?
What I understand is that of all the semi finalists Leeds have shown thesmelves capable of winning the really big games on a far more consistent basis than any other over the last few years. If you really think this crop of Leeds players are weaker than, say, Huddersfield then so be it. Teams and supporters have been under-estimating this champion set of players for years.
The game is too close to call and I'd rather have avoided Wigan. Only because I'd like to see us have a crack at beating you in a final. |

As a club we've earned it.

Accepted, it'll be great contest and a lot can happen in nine weeks, but at this moment Leeds would have been my pick. |

Rouges you only beat us 20 - 6 hardly a good beating and it was the week before we became "WORLD CLUB CHAMPIONS", and it was clear we had our minds on a much bigger game the following week.
Your performance against saints was far from convincing as well, so not that sure your in that good a shape anyway.
In terms of having a pick at this stage of the cup, it doesn't matter a jot the games will be diffcult whoever we play. |

In the last 9 seasons Leeds have won ten games to reach one of the two domestic finals in English Rugby League, reaching both finals in a season twice in that span.
Very weak.

Look at it this way.
Leeds haven't beat Wigan in their last five games.
Is that correct? |

Most of it as flat track bullies. How's the record on a level playing field? And then theres cheating the cap to stay up. Shameful. |

Not arrogant, just proud.
And rightly so as you should know.
I was at Leeds in 1957.
RL didn't begin in 1996. |
