leeds shown us once again how to comeback in the second half and kill a side off..they did it with hull earlier in the season now theyv'e done it with catalan....as champions thats what we should have done to hull kr...here's hoping against the pies..(thats if weve got a decent lineup with the bleedin injuries weve got)..

Who is likely to be missing for Saints?

Lomax, Percival and Walsh for certain.

Roby, Burns and Vea all injured on Friday but not sure how long they'll be out yet, if at all.

Yes Leeds are good at that. Pity you are not.

Behind at half time to catalan, and won.
Behind at half time to Wakefield, and won.
Behind at half time to Widnes, and won.

We're terrible at winning games I agree

Gotcha cheers. We'll likely be missing Charnley, Flower, O'Loughlin, Crosby and Powell

Losing either or Roby or Burns would be a killer for us and would make you favourites I reckon.

We simply have nobody who can do anything close to what Roby does. O'Loughlin is huge for you but in Bateman you have someone who can step in.

We could potentially be without our 1,6,7 and 9 which would mean we'd need a huge performance from the forwards and Wilkin single handedly guiding us.

We need at least one of Burns or Roby out there in order to win in my opinion.

Agree with all of that.

In my opinion it doesn,t matter how many pivotal players we have, first things first we need to sort out our defence, we can almost guarantee that the goons don,t want a forward battle and will try and move the ball out wide as quick as possible.

This is we really need to put a lot of pressure on Matty Smith so they don,t get any rythem, likewise there will be a lot of pressure on Wilkin if he is our one and only pivot.

We are getting a little bit snookered if we lose both Burns and Roby with Wellens at 1 and Lance at 9 we could look at Turner at 6 with Jonesy and Dawson concentrating more as defensive centres for when the Goons go out wide.

Its a bit of a challenge for KC, interesting to work out how he will approach it.

...
well i dont think i could beat a team on my own....PLONKER!

If burns is injured, we surely can't turn up the chance to reunite the GF winning halfback combination of Hohaia and Flanagan!

Leeds are like Saints and other top teams .. in general good at playing Rugby , Pity your s**t.

I can't wait to see Leigh stomp all over you.

Roby was concussed? Cant see that stopping him this week. Similarly, Burns played the whole game with what looked like a pretty sore cheek bone, but I reckon he will be out there too. Not sure about Vea, he looked pretty sore when he went off.

The problem with robes, he will have to pass all the medical tests to play Friday.
