| Without an intervention from out of this world, god or terrorism?
That seems to be the impression you lot are giving. You seem to think you 'smashed' Saints on Friday in 2nd gear and could never possibly lose.
I've been in that position where you feel your team is invincible before, but I was wondering how supremely confident you all are really, when there aren't trolling points to be gained.
Are you all 110% confident of SL glory again this year?

I appreciate I've only been back on the board a short time but I really can't see anywhere where anyone has suggested that Leeds retaining the title is a given.
What I would say is that we are right to be confident in our team's abilities and we have a good chance of retaining the title. 110% is a complete impossibility though...
As an aside I believe you're referring to the fact we "smashed" Saints all over the park rather than smashed them in terms of scoreline.
Although IMO it was a convincing and well deserved win

| I think it is confidence in the quality when playing to the best of our abilities.
We have put ourselves in the best position possible to make history.
If we do not at least get to OT then fans have the right to be disappointed.
Bigs game against Shudds on the 18th - Shudds will believe themselves capable of a win.

| I can't see a Salford win - although given the right mix* it is possible.
*Salford to best they can, we play to worst we can
I can see Shudds putting in a testing performance.

| I was talking more generally. As in, can Leeds fail to win SL this season?

| To sum this up,we beat stains on friday in a classic,but we aren't unbeatable by a long chalk as has been made glaringly obvious on a few occasions this season.
I don't think any of our supporters are deluded enough to just expect us to turn up on friday and claim the 2 points
That would show Salford far too much dis-respect in my opinion.
On the flip side though,I seem to remember what happened last season when stains thumped us at KR and we all know what the result of the over confidence of there supporters did.

Are you all 110% confident of SL glory again this year?'" come on fella!! we arnt saints fans ala 07/08 we know you need to be at your best when it matters the most or you lose!! End of!! do I think we can win it?? yes as most Leeds fans do!! But the win is never a given!! When I was in oz for the world cup the media had the nerve to say after the semi they should just give the trophy to oz there and then!! You could smell the shock coming from the kiwis but the Aussies where so big headed they were blind to it!! Just like saints in 07/08!

In all honesty I felt the game last week could just have easily have gone your way. So whilst I am confident I wold hesitate to be arrogant and assume we just have to turn up.

| I think at our best we're the best team in the comp by some margin.
But to win the GF we will need to be near are best and not get refereed out of the game.

Any posters intimating such thoughts are generally just trolling the Saints fan visiting the board.
But I'm sure you knew that already.

| We can win it. We should win it. But it still has to be earned. If we don't go out and earn it, we won't win it. Huddersfield's defeat in the CC just shows that a better side will lose if they don't do their jobs properly.
