Big IF that seeing as how Orford had a fitness test for wakey game. With another 7 days recovery time can't see him missing leeds game tbh.

Hope Orford is fit he is a class player.
We will miss Peacock I think more than us missing Burrow.
Although we did pretty well without him for most of the game against Wire.

Is Webb not up on a charge of striking (grade B, 1-2 matches) tomorrow? He may also be missing.

He won't get a ban - he's a Leeds player.

rlYes he isrl

I bet he doesn't get banned before a televised Leeds/Bradford derby though.

maybe? maybe not. We have cover though. Smith to fullback, donald could play, or we can go with ablett in the centre and delaney on the wing.

Leeds dispite having peacock, burrow, donald(might play) and Ali(might play) out we have enough to beat anyone so no excuses.

I agree if Ali donald and Webb are available we will be a better team. But if we don't win this one which I think we will there will be no excuses. if both teams are at their best Leeds win. If Leeds arnt at their best the bulls can get the job done doubt.

Is it likely to be Sinfield at 6, McGuire at 7 for you lot?

good question? we have options depending on fitness and bans. If Webb doesn't get banned and donald is back you may see donald on the wing, smith at fullback and Webb at 7 with sini going back to 13 which is a frightening back line

smith
donald
delaney
senior
hall
mcguire
Webb

long term if this really clicks we might see burrow coming off the bench as an impact player when he is fit.

but sini and mcguire at 6 & 7 is most probably the way Leeds will go for the bulls.

Wouldn't that leave you a forward short with Burrow & Buderus on the bench?

That is a very good backline though, I have to admit. What's the likelihood of Donald getting another deal for next year though, can't be too likely given his injuries this season?

Just if you're wondering, we'll probably go like this against you:

Kearney (if fit) / Halley
Sheriffe
Platt
Nero (if fit)/Beaver
Reardon
Sykes
Orford
Lynch
L'Estrange
Scruton
Whitehead
Langley
Menzies

Godwin
Hall
Kopzcak
Donaldson/Worrincy

so first buderus has been starting the games so on the bench I would maybe think diskin would make way for burrow. So burrow and 3 big lads Ali, Eastwood, bailey(if jp is fit when burrow returns).

second, that backline is for this season. with the signing of smith I can't see donald staying but who knows.

Is Buderus off home after this year aswell?

I wouldn't have a clue but if some leave who are thought to be leaving we will have some major cap power. Buderus, donald, Ali, bailey, senior and diskin have all to resign or move on. not all will move on but if beds, donald, Ali and bailey move on we would be able to bring in 2 maybe 3 world class players.

If they are available and want to come to SL that is

How many quota spots would you have? Ali doesn't take one does he?

Webb, Delaney, Leuluai, Eastwood do I presume? That would only leave you with 1 and thats if Buderus doesn't re-sign.
