I am looking forward to the trip to Crusaders, and I think that its going to be a really competitive game. People seem to think that we are going to hammer you guys, but if you look through your squad in detail, you have some potential big players in there, I dont think it will be a easy game for leeds, and dont think it will be very high scored like last season at Newport. I hope that you all have a great season. Good luck to you for the season... except when you play us though.

I look forward to seeing more of Elliot Kear and hope that he gets quite a bit of game time because IMO hes going to be a superb player.

Ben Jones-Bishop
Will Sharp
David Howell
Tony Clubb

Luke Dorn (*injured)
Danny Orr
Louie McCarthy-Scaarsbrook
Chad Randall
Karl Temata (*Injured)
Luke Williamson
Jason Golden

Danny Ward
Oli Wilkes
Dave Williams/Matt James/Ryan Esders
Luke Gale/Andy Ellis/Ben Kaye

Best young players I reckon are Dave Williams, Jamie O'Callaghan and Luke May.

So there you have it
They gave us a real run at home last year. If you'd swapped the halfbacks around on that day (we got Dick Van Dyke, they got Danny Orr) then they would have won. Our clubs doing some good things off the field, on the field we're going backwards, fast.

Salford, Crusaders and Harlequins all look poor squads imo with Bradford not far behind.

I like the look of Hull!

I see a whole bunch of pretty evenly matched teams....

1. Tansey
2. Calderwood
3. Yeaman
4. Hall
5. Briscoe
6. Horne
7. Long
8. Radford
9. Berrigan
10. O'Meley
11. Tickle
12. Manu
13. Fitzgibbon

14. Cusack
15. Moa
16. Lauaki
17. Turner

That how it will be, although I'd rather have -
1. Tansey
2. Calderwood
3. Yeaman
4. Hall
5. Briscoe
6. Turner
7. Long
8. Radford
9. Berrigan
10. O'Meley
11. Fitzgibbon
12. Manu
13. Washbrook

14. Moa
15. Lauaki
16. Dowes
17. Whiting

Must be the hardest squad in the league? Can't see many messing with those boys this year.

His international prospects won't improve playing at a poor club. That's the reality.

If you think our squad is only just behind those three you need your head checking.

Maybe you haven't seen any of our imports play? Or maybe your just trying to get a reaction from people like me?

Either way I would bet you a fair deal of cash that there'll be more than these three finishing below us.

Think he got his reaction Where do you think you will finish?

Very strong. Grix was your form player at the back end of last season, and yet he's not seen as a first choice player in the 17. Lots of room for rotation, with the the likes of Clarke, Cooper, Riley and Mitchell too.

If Warrington can keep the majority of there best players fit for the most of the season, they'd be the team to back. Certainly the team to give Leeds a run for top spot.

You can give us Penny back aswell, if he's 5th choice winger!

I admire you for being such a dedicated and positive fan. I hope you don't spit your dummy out next season when Bradford are not one of the top sides in the league.

Anybody have any idea what the 1st choice 17 is likely to be for Catalans?
