Never underestimate the Millward factor.

Probably a daft question, but is the game on SKY?

With the sheer amount of crap games on at the moment, I wouldnt be surprised to see it not being on.

I believe it is. On Saturday.

Unfortunately, it is. At present I would much rather us be ignored by Sky!

6-8 point win for Saints on Saturday IMO, and it will be a belting game.

Personally, I can't wait for it.

The Lads will have got a hiding after last weeks performance, and with kyle out we hopefully will play more like a team. Thats what Quins and Cas are currently doing with far worse squads than ours

I wish I had your optimism about Saturday! I'd love us to really shut everyone up and blast Leeds away but with all the drama going on at the club just now plus key injuries I just can't summon up that level of optimism. Well done you for doing so though!

Fearthevee still believes in Santa Claus and still has several teeth under his pillow that the tooth fairy will give him money for when she isn't so busy.

Leeds by 32.

Half time or full time?

Sorry silly question. There is no chance we could score 18 points in the first half

Saddened believes Wakefield have better backs than us and that we'd lose every play-off game last season.

We've lost to Quins at home. so did Leeds.

Leeds beat Hull, we drew with Wigan.

Leeds beat Bradford away, we beat Catalans away.

Leeds scored 42 at home to Salford. We scored 56 away.

Leeds got smashed by Wire with a flattering scoreline, as did we.

How people are arriving at the conclusion that Leeds are going to wipe the floor with us is beyond me. All this talk of 30+ point margins is absolute nonsense - you can quote me on that on Sunday.

Nope, Saints backs to the wall, evey pass will stick, and we will run 30 points past a demoralised Leeds team.

I hope you are right but its not often I'm wrong. I just don't see how we are going to score enough points with no half backs.

Given we've reached the GF the last two years, you've been wrong about our heinous squad pretty much every week until the end of the season for 2 years. Not a great record despite what you might think of it.

I can still hear your knee-jerk wailing about falling behind Hudds/Hull/KR/Wakey/AnyoneElseWithaRLTeam after we lost to Hull in game one last season, before reaching the GF.

It will go one of two ways.

This whole Eastmond scenario will bring the squad together and we'll have a gutsy 6-10 point win.

Or

The players aren't as bothered as the fans over Eastmond given that they are all professionals and not fans, so we won't have that backs agaisnt the wall attitude and the lack of half backs means that we'll struggle to score and will lose the territorial game badly. And that means we'll lose by 12-18 points.

I'm afraid that I'm hedging towards the second scenario, but will be delighted to be wrong.
