When did this scrape happen, more a thumping really - but yep it's a different ball game now - you should be mighty disappointed if you lose this one - it's a game we have no right to win .

| Quote: tvoc "I guess that's because it's supposed to be a play-off between the eight best teams as determined by points accrued over a twenty-seven round qualifying competition and on the pitch Wakefield have come ninth on that basis.'"
I think if you look at the final league table you will see we finished 8th, thus making the play-offs.
We did everything within the rules and laws of the game.....we played and were beaten by Bradford twice with our squad that we could afford against their squad that they couldn't. Had they have been playing with a squad they could afford then we would probably have beaten them twice......they broke the rules and paid the penalty....we stuck to them and deservedly finished 8th.....
Really looking forward to the game on Saturday.....the arrogance of some Leeds fans is great.....to be fair though you've earned that with your record over the years in big games.....
I just feel some are getting a little carried away here though and thinking it will be easier than it actually will......in our 2 league games this year we've scored 78 points against you....winning one convincingly and getting beat in the other......one crucial thing you could point to is the Challenge Cup game (a game that did really matter) in that you beat us in the end by a comfortable margin but the game was a lot closer for long periods than that final scoreline suggested......you can add on to that we're a far, far better team playing with much more confidence now (on the back of 7 straight wins) than when we were back then and I'm not sure you could say the same about Leeds.....
Through the years of Leeds dominance (in winning GF's) nobody can knock those efforts, they've been a top quality side......I genuinely think though this is the weakest Leeds team for quite a while, one in kind of like a transitional period with a lot of the older experienced players coming to the end while a lot of the younger future star players not quite with the experience of the big games yet....
Leeds are obviously worthy favourites....but I wouldn't rule out a shock at all....beware a team full of confidence with no pressure on them!

It's a shame it doesn't always work that way or leeds would be champions in 2005

| 22 - 4 to "whipping boys" Huddersfield rabble at half time. Poetic justice for William "Digger" Eve. Thete's more of that coming from Wakey at Headingley.

Those 4 above being the whipping boy SL rabble as this ridiculously long-drawn out Top 8 play-off system spends 2 tedious weeks clearing out the garbage that shouldn't be littering the play-offs in the first place.'"
Whipping boy SL rabble tearing you apart...

| Step 1: Beat Wakefield at home (most in form team in the SL).
Step 2: Beat most likely Catalans away (only lost in Perpignan once this year).
Step 3: Beat most likely Wigan away (League Leaders who have put you to the sword a couple of times this year)
Step 4: Beat most likely Warrington at OT (CC winners).
Couldn't be much of a harder run in to be fair! I think Hull have got it better in 6th to be honest - Hudds (h), Saints (a), Wigan (a), Wire (OT)

| Our defence is terrible, and has been (apart from the odd game here and there) for a while now.
We need a coach and at least a couple of fresh forwards.
