I'm thinking 22-50 to Leeds. Leeds have a bad enough defence to let us score a few, but ours is horrendous and they should have enough to blow us away.

Plus Leeds will probably see their squad ability boosted by the suspension of Bailey.

Missing our form prop is hardly a boost.

Sure you want to use "form"?

4 WEEKS!! Jeez

I suppose the bright side is, it's been diagnosed properly and hopefully dealt with.

Blah blah blah.

Away fans claim he's antichrist, home fans say he's actually not that bad. I'm not getting into that whole load of crap ta.

We thought that last time. When he came back for one game.

Bradford: Ainscough, Ah Van, Bateman, Burgess, Diskin, Donaldson, Elima, Hargreaves, Herbert, Kearney, Kopczak, L'Estrange, Lynch, Olbison, Platt, Raynor, Walker, Royston, Whitehead.

Leeds: Webb, Smith, Delaney, Senior, Hall, Burrow, Leuluai, Buderus, Jones-Buchanan, Ablett, Sinfield, Cross, Bailey, Kirke, Burgess, Watkins, Hauraki, Clarkson, McShane.

Bailey will be replaced after red hall meeting, Smith, Delaney and Watkins could be out injured.

Langley must have a worse injury record than that Aussie back rower you shipped out to Wakey. Come on FA, you can't resist it.

Briggs dropped?!

Disagree, I think he'll drop Raynor. Go Walker/Ah Van.

I just can't fathom Briggs being dropped. He wasn't at his best, granted, but how is he expected to be if he's dropped after one game?

Unless he's not fit, were you not pointing out before that the injury he was said to have was the same as Owen Hargreaves? He's not made two games in a row for years.

If he is fit then I agree, dropping him straight away is hardly going to help bring him on and build a partnership with Herbert.

maybe one of the wingers will miss out if platt is fit? at a guess:

royston
ah van
walker
platt
ainscough
kearney
herbert
hargreaves
diskin
lynch
elima
olbison
donaldson
