It's Official - "Homer Simpson is a Leeds Fan":d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_41073.jpg



This all started when Brian McD found out when his his treasured Bulls Shi t (missed the R) sorry, was sold down the river along with £500K of fans money. Now he needs to win at Wembley so that he can have a Rhino's one to replace it.

Ha! You didn't write that last year!

Did you.....?

Oh, and for the OP it wasn't our best performance in years IMO. We were frequently better than that in 2009, and I would certainly argue that we were better still in our win at Wire in the playoffs last year, which was the best Leeds performance since the 2007 GF in my very humble opinion.

Freedom without Socialism is privilege and injustice. Socialism without freedom is slavery and brutality.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_1136.jpg



OK, here goes, shoot me down if you want, I'm listening.

I might be slow coming round to it but I have worked out that Burrow can play hooker like he used to play scrum half, getting up to the line and drawing the attention of the defence, and at hooker he can do that straight from the ruck with great effect.
I have worked out that Bailey is an extra prop on the field (at Loose) to make up for Burrow not being a real defensive hooker (I'm not saying Burrow can't tackle, he most certainly can, but he couldn't and shouldn't have to defend the middle against opposition forwards like a hooker does. Long term, playing hooker will damage Burrow's head, he's always taken some hammer from the forwards and bounced straight up again but he's getting a lot more of it now).
I had always worked out that McGuire can do scrum half.

I still don't think Sinfield is a complete stand-off, despite having a great kicking game.

But what I think McD has done is to divide the tasks for each role and distribute them according to who can do it, rather than according to the standard list if who-does-what-in-which-position, thereby covering the bits of stand-off that Sinfield isn't and the bits of hooker that Burrow isn't and the role of loose forward where Sinfield isn't.
That deserves credit where it's due.

It worked on Saturday ... but that game was won in the forwards, giving Sinfield, Burrow (especially) and McGuire the space and pace in which to work their 'fluence and regardless of McD's decisions on positions.
In the warm-up, Peacock had the pack in a huddle and was giving them a real good old geeing-up.
Their very energetic, never letting-up, in-their-faces defending ... well, it out-enthused Wigan, forcing errors and knocking their completion rate for six. (Granted, Tomkins also made a couple of bloody awful unforced errors that gave us a juicy advantage ... couldn't happen to a nicer guy //www.northamptonrl.co.uk:193.jpg



Quote: nantwichexile "IF true then it really is not fair on those paying spectators.

Nor is it fair on some of the young lads playing so well in the U-20's that might have expected a crack, knowing that the first team were indulged in their not 'focusing' quite so much. 2.1201171875:5
