So after playing them barely a month ago, we go up against the Rhinos again this Friday (great work fixture planners)

Tough game for us, Leeds are on a real roll, however with home advantage I'm hoping we can maybe just sneak a win. However we certainly need to improve our attack from the last two games, particularly when we are in their 20m.

Hoping for a big crowd, however I'm not as excited or pumped up for the match as I should be as it is so soon after we last played them.

I hope the Bulls' last 2 results won't prevent a good crowd.

always a hard game on your patch,do we need our raincoats?

Doesn't look like it, looks like it could be fairly mild too.

Leeds fans are right comedians eh?

Yeah we are..

What no more doom and gloom from you this year Eddie?
Is that because you are ever thankful we helped bail your lot out?
FWIW I do like reading your posts and most times you do talk sense.
Forecast is for a dry mild night so should be a good open game.
We should win but then again we should have won last month against your lot.

Is there a parallel forum Eddie posts on?

Ooooooh! Jealous Mick!

Message board legend me. You knows it.

Clearly Wire and Wigan are currently on a higher level than the Bulls but in these two games we were extremely generous to the opposition - with early turnovers and Sammut's restarting against Wigan. To have a chance against the Rhino's I am sure FC will be stressing tightening up our game. A win on Friday would be nice of course - but an exciting tight game comes a close second.

Big win away in the cup and losing at wire shouldn't make much difference....though yeah, I know you really mean the Wigan and Wire games not the cup.

To be honest more expensively assembled sides than ours have lost to those teams and the fact they weren't 'blow outs', against probably the best two teams in the competition, should put us in good heart.

If you think about it, it's a fantastic plaudit for Franny Cummins that having been fairly well beaten (though not by any means disgraced, and both games the score was not a fair reflection of the gap betwen the teams) in the last two "big games", many people are actually a bit deflated and disappointed. On the day OK signed up to svae the club, and hearing about our salary cap reduction, and given the disarray the whole thing put the club in, on that day we'd have all been expecting 60 point shallackings against these teams in a few months time. That we can at least give them a good hard game, and that we can see the effort the whole squad is putting in to those games, should really be enough, though i know we all want more
