Don't worry about avoiding temptation.

Yes I agree there will now be plenty of authors embarrassed by their quotes on that thread!

Do you think Gotcha is still pronouncing our demise? He'll eventually be right. We might win 9 out of 10 championships but that year we don't he'll be telling us "I told you we were in decline".
Some comedy nuggets from that thread. Watching Keith Switcorn lay down a trail of M&Ms for Bywater to foolish gobble up was a joy. Mind you, not that Keith Switcorn knows his rugby: "This squad is finished as a competitive entity and there should be no further contract renewals for any of them........Wigan will retain their SL crown."
Guffaw Keith. Guffaw.
Chapylad: "Burrow yes offers nothing"
Ron, a gloating Wire fan. "Perfect example of what is wrong with your club, can't see past the medals..... Peacock wouldn't get in the Wire 17, his finished.... you keep telling yourself you have great players its just the coaches fault, hope your owner has the same opinion, nice seeing leeds in 8th. "
You were right Ron, we couldn't see past the medals. 
There were a few Wire fans who shot their load a little early last year. here's WireWonder: "I don't know what 'Rhinos' fans were really expecting,you were never going to be competing with the big clubs like Wire this season.....All aboad the Wire glory train. Heading for Wembley and Old Trafford.....It's what in the future that matters and Wire have a golden future. Starting with winning the treble of League Leaders Shield, Challenge Cup and Grand Final this season. Your more than welcome to come along and cheer on the mighty Wire at Wembley and Old Trafford..."
Rogues gallery keeps on playing the same tune: "As I've said on the other thread, the major failure has been Hetheringtons recruitment and
mis-management of the Leeds youth systems for the last five years."
This is nothing new. I remember re-hashing the bile from many posters during the 2007 season after our GF win. You have to realise the majority of our fans and the majority of our posters on here are morons.

Thats a class quote there G. I don't mind people writing the team off and being proven wrong. Its when people write our team off, and simultaneously get on their knees and blow hard on a team, saying they WILL win this that and the other. Its especially funny, when its the supporter of a club, who have won practically nothing in the last 20 years, apart from a couple of fairly flat track CC wins.

I did think burrow was finished as a starting scrum half early season but what a revelation @ sub.
would prefer sinfield back at loose forward but not sure would go with danny and rob starting

Personally I would go back to McGuire and Burrow with Sinfield at loose but I can understand the tactic of using Rob from the bench (even though I disagreed wit hit at first).

I think they may well start games as last season. Then after things have settle down midway through the first half revert to the classic triangle. This way both Burrow and Sinfield will have to do less tackling in the early part of the game keeping them fresher to make an impact for the rest of the game in their original positions. |

Thanks for those.
I was interested to see your contribution to the Coach McDermott debate in the thread you chose to highlight. Imagine my surprise that it came three months later ....... after the Grand Final victory. Smart thinking.
That said, while apparently not prepared to counter the flow of criticism in the coach and CEO's direction on that thread at the time, you were prepared to go on the record that weekend of the long knives after the disaster in Perpignan: viewtopic.php?f=17&t=500529&start=36 .... to highlight poor officials and suggesting the club never gave Cross 'a fair crack' and lamenting his and Burgess' departure leaving Leeds with 'one of the most ineffective set of props in the top 8' : viewtopic.php?f=17&t=500673&start=23 ..... no more than a thinly veiled attack on those in charge of running the club. |

The ability to quote things is hit and miss for me on this site.
Sometimes people don't like it if a quote isn't properly quoted so a direct question was easier.
While not always agreeing with g1, who I know as well as yourself nantwich, his thoughts seem a bit more reasoned than your own. I'd expect you to pencil burrow in @ prop forward if the pfu would allow you.

Fair enough  ......but I do seem to remember the afore mentioned prefering a certain Mr Diskin to Buderus.... and Ablett in the threequarters, at the expense of Hardaker |

I'm definately in favour of Mags and Burrow at 6 and 7 respectively not least because i think Mcshane and Hood are good enough to handle the 9 role between them.

You'd have seen that on a banner if the first 20 minutes of the Hull FC (H) game last season had started to go the wrong way.
There was at least one banner ready to be held up in the SS

I did say he doesn't get everything right. Buderus recovered from his leg injury better than diskin for me.
Ablett has never let anyone down in the centres and haedaker ended up replacing watkins which was perhaps more luck than judgement for everyone.
Didn't you want hardaker @ stand off and not centre. Certain games it may be good to try him there this year if going to be attack minded .
