| Without McGuire Leeds have to play a different game based around the kicking of Sinfield and Burrow as we have to make up for the loss of Danny's usual 1 or 2 tries. So I think Sinny will move to 6 to control the game as field position will be vital and we need our kickers to have some space so they have time to kick into space.
Senior looked good in the pack at Hull with a high tackle count and added pace to the pack so this will allow Smith into centre as we will need a 3rd kicker. I hope JJB is fit as we will need his energy.
So for me Webb, Hall, Delaney, Smith, Donald, Sinfield, Burrow, Ambler/Bailey, Buderus, Kylie, Senior, JJB, Clarkson. With a bench of Eastwood, Ali, Ablett, Diskin
If we can play in their half we can win so must watch our discipline and not give easy yards away. We should borrow Huddersfield's tactics against Warrington. They were fast up in the Wires faces with an "attacking defence" in the first half and it blew them away just as they did to us at Wembley.

Why is Clarke supposed to be independent?
Is that part of his contractual terms with his employer Sky?

You seen to know a lot about rugby related contractual agreements as you are constantly commenting on players salaries, maybe you could tell us?

I would have thought so - if you want to sell TV programmes I would suggest it would be a good idea not to upset potential subscribers through bias towards one particular side?
To applaud an injury to one of the game's star players which help to attract new viewers which keeps the presenters in job is hardly conducive to attract new viewers?
I would have thought it was obvious why the presenters need to be impartial - obviously to anyone with a hint of common sense?

42170_1280565797.jpg Rule 1. I am always right.
Rule 2. If in any case I appear wrong, refer to rule 1.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_42170.jpg |

| i think moving Sinny to 6 will give Burrow a lot more freedom to cause damage in attack. With McGuire his game is far more restricted and we don't see his best. Lets hope he can conjure up some runs like last week and make the loss of McGuire a lot less harmful to our attack.

Remind me how State of Origin is marketed down under. Are the studio analysts and commentators there completely unbiased and impartial in their opinions on both teams and who they want to win?
How often is Stevo controversial with his opinions?
Grow up.

SOO is not SL it is tribal contest between two sides who both have equal representation on the TV. If nine had Warren or Gould behave in the way Clarke does they would soon get very short shrift from nine.
There is a difference between being controversial and commenting on a particular incident and bias towards one particular side in a contest.
I appreciate the logic is beyond your comprehension but then I have assumed from your comments you are still at school?

So McClennan is allowed to wish that other clubs get the same injuries Leeds have?
Ok then

Really? Is that why Nine employee Andrew Johns referred to Greg Inglis in derogatory racist terms prior to an Origin game this season and yet he's still employed by them?
Grow up.

I think McClennan was hoping for a level playing field with regards injuries i.e. in a physical sport like RL injuries are an accepted part of the game. All sides will suffer some during the season and Leeds surely will not be the only side to suffer - pretty logical to me, but that doesn't suit your agenda does it Danny?
Has McClennan come out and said any player deserved to be injured due to a foul that happens 10+ times in every game?

Have Leeds injuries this season been any worse than what Saints have endured ?
Yet I haven't heard Potter chelping about it, nor have I heard Potter wishing injuries on other teams hopefully either.

Did Johns show a bias to any particular side - or did I miss a racist comment from Clarke - you seem incapable of following a thread?
Maybe when you leave school you will have grown up enough to read, digest and comment appropriately?

So if it doesn't suit your biased, blinkered view it must be an agenda?
You like that word agenda David, you use it alot. It's incredibly sad that you frequently look for skulduggery rather than looking at the cold hard facts.

Different coach different style - doesn't make McClennan's comments quite the crime you make it out to be - amazing when you take comments out of context - if you were able?

So McClennan's comments are taken out of context and Clarke's aren't?
