We have to be in a position to take advantage of that and really we aren't making the most of our opportunity here.'"
Rubbish - if we lose it's because we wernt good enough. We have a few out but none that can't be adequately replaced. Only Miller is a genuine miss however Sam Williams is hardly rubbish.
We may well lose but injury will play no part - the 17 we put out should be good enough to compete til the 80th minute.

Leeds have only one advantage over us - big Match experience there is no argument from me on that one.
Also for reasons unknown Leeds love BV and ALWAYS play well. Think we've won 3 in 20 years which is really bad. Headingley on the other hand is much easier - if we are delving into the past what was the score in 2016 at your place.
I suspect a Leeds win but wouldn't be surprised with a Wakey win.'"
that made me chuckle fair play

| I'd only take 3 possibly 4, but not many more?
Parcell, Cuthbertson, Moon...maybe Garbutt...I don't see them week in week out though, but would be happy to stick with the players we've got over all the rest...
Leeds fans would probably think similar, in that you would only take a few of ours, as you don't see ours week in week out!
As I mentioned earlier though it's another indication of how the gap has closed because 5 years ago we'd have happily taken the entire Leeds 17 over ours!

| No I wouldn't take either thanks...both living off past glory for me..our two current wingers have scored 14 and 10 tries...Caton-Brown is raw..young, hungry and with pace to burn...if he's in the clear you know it's a try...BJB is currently playing as well as he has in his whole career...some of his finishes have been spectacular...both our wingers have scored more tries and make more average metres per carry...I'm happy with them to be honest...
Watkins is good on his day yes...doesn't do it consistently enough for me...Reece Lyne has got to be one of the most under rated and under the radar players in super league at present...stats, and his consistent performance back it up...he absolutely owned Junior Sau on Sunday...it was such a mismatch it was bordering on embarrassing for Sau...i'm happy with Lyne ta...

Watkins is certainly a better player, the fact that he'll be playing for England in the world cup and Lyne won't be says it all. However, in a salary capped sport, I wouldn't want to swap them. Reece Lyne has been outstanding all season and will probably be on far less money than Watkins so I would say he represents significantly better value for money.

Sam Williams is definitely rubbish.

| If literally every player at Wakefield is better than their Leeds counterpart and none would be swapped. How on earth are Wakefield lower in the table than a Leeds side which only has one halfback?

It's not that the Wakefield players are better, it's that the Leeds players wouldn't bring anything extra to the Wakefield side so it would be pointless swapping. There's a reason that both teams are on equal points in the table with very similar points for and against, and that's that both teams are very evenly matched

| Yeah except that one of those teams has a player who has won 5 super league titles, 2 WCC, 2 Challenge cups, 2 league leaders shields a Baskerville shield over 200 hundred super league tries, an international rookie of the year award, a lance Todd trophy and 32 international tries in 32 international appearances and the other has Mason Caton-Brown.
The reason Leeds and Wakefield are level on points is that Leeds squad is hugely imbalanced.
