| Quote Northampton_Saint="Northampton_Saint"Yes, you're absolutely right. Leeds are a terrible team who never contest big finals or anything after all, eh? They chase the top spot every season and throw everything they have into winning meaningless league games and are just too **** to win them or finish top despite all their best efforts. They weep into their pints every night at their accursedly low league position and winning at O/T is just no consolation to them at all in their agony, bless 'em.
Leeds have mastered the art of what modern SL is about - i.e. their being no point in bothering to turn up for pointless league games until August, and saving all their energy for the playoffs instead. You might still delight in the joy of actually winning [isomething[/i (no matter how unrecognised and denigrated a trophy it may be) after all those long, lonely years of mid-table obscurity and think that finishing top is a goal worth throwing everything you have at all season long. The successful clubs like us and Leeds however got bored with winning the hubcab years ago and direct our energies at the part of the season where it counts instead. The current Leeds side will be acclaimed in future generations as one of the greatest club sides of all time. So will Saints' teams of a few years ago. Your current team will merely go down in history as a footnote. So ner.'"
Nice mature ending there.
Hate to correct your tangent, but Leeds have little relevance as to who finishes top, as I originally said, and 2 consecutive fifth place finishes confirms that.
Now we're in the playoffs, it's a whole different matter, but I'm glad you got that off your chest.

| Quote wolfinwidnes="wolfinwidnes"definate red card and probably 2-3 game ban.
how wane can defend that is shocking but he is his coach so feels he has to???
as for saying he is a good coach cos he won the league wire have played virtually the whole season in 2nd gear and if we beat wierdness today will have finished 1 point behind the team that bar against widnes has gone full throttle at the league.
we will see how good his coaching skills are when at the end of the season there is no
finch
luilui (sorry about spelling)
lima
carmont
3 of the most important players leaving in one go is huge that would be like taking
briers, morley, hodgson out of wire in one go
sinfield, peacock, maguire out of leeds'"
Graham, Price, Eastmond out of Saints

| I don't that Micky Mac is a thug, he plays the game hard, plays aggressive and these types every now and then will cross the line every now and then.
We'd kill for a player with his aggression at the moment. We've had our fair share of dirty/tough players over the years with the likes of sonny Nickle, Vila, hooper, cooper etc but teams need these players.

| Vila that was the name I was looking for but had to settle on Hooper who was another one who could do the dirty when needed.

It is annoying but every team needs agressive forwards.

| Vila was no where near as psycho as Davidson. He had that glazed over look in his eyes and you really thought he could take someone's head off.

| I seem to remember Vila one time, I'm not even sure if it was in attack or defence, launching his head like a cannonball at an opponent's knees.

He had a spell of running in with his head and a spell of running in with his knees up.
He could be devastating when he was interested, especially on the inside ball off Goulding.

On his day, though, he could mix it with the best of them.
I wouldn't mind him pulling on the Vee again, despite his draw backs.

That guy was a moron. I remember when Adrian Morley got sent off for decked him at Headingley. It was pleasing on so many levels.
