I think we (leeds) are in a hole, but, I don’t think tonights game will mean anything regarding the middle 8s, it was a dead rubber with Leefs focus being on next Sunday, Leeds didn’t field a full side tonight, having said that there is a big problem to fix at leeds and im not sure its all down to not having players that are good enough, the tam is not that dis similar to the team that came 2nd and won the Grand Final last year, I think theres something mentally within the club that’s not right, we have lost 4 games against top sides by a point, its as if they don’t believe they can win and that is something that could not be levelled at Rhinos’s sides over the lst 15 years, it will take a frw years to tebuild that and I think Sinfield is the right man to over see that change, I just hope they’ve got enough in them to see the middle 8s out, I don’t care how they do it but they need to finish in the top 3 of the split.
My big worry is if we pull out a big performance next week and make the final that could actually be a massive distraction in the middle 8s, which should be our focus.

I don't think you should flatter yourself too much. I know sky like to go on about Leeds and Hull's injury list but rarely mention a side like us struggling to put 17 out (based not only on our injury list but the fact we don't actually have many players) We are so short of players we borrow kids from Wigan and our coaching staff have to fill in for the lack of bodies during training.
Maybe it was a dead rubber for you hell maybe it even was for us, but bear in mind whilst you've beaten Widnes in what 11 games, you got soundly beaten by a team low on everything including 12 men for most of the game and debutant (JH) who lasted around 20 mins .

| Rhinos could potentially drop to the Championship. Might be a good thing considering Hetherington doesn't share the Super League vision.
Maybe it is time for a PL style breakaway. Let SL control it's own league, the RFL the rest with it's own TV deal....

Probably one of the few points I agree with you on.

Leeds have form in pre CC Semi and Final games. 2014 we were the only team to lose to London that year when we played them the week before Wembley.
Also point out that we play Salford at home in the middle 8’s and the score line was 20-0 earlier in the year.

Very true, don't read anything into last night Leeds will be at it next week and will likely perform to a level they have rarely reached all season. I personally don't think it will be enough on the day as Wire are a good team and also capable of lifting a level which i think they will and edge us out.

I agree it's possible but you must be concerned, we had 12 men for 60 mins and debutant Jackson Hastings did his magic in the first 20 and never came back on.
However I'm not quite sure that this particular Leeds side have it in them to have a pre cup semi day off, and if Wire click i think will destroy Leeds however it's in our interest that Leeds win. (ALL 7 SIDES)

Well as you allued to at the end, the difference in getting to Wembley or not could be massive. If we don't I think we'll be fine, if we do it could make things tougher in the 8's but that also depends what two fixtures take place either side of Wembley. Could be against two Championship teams or could be against Salford and HKR.
I agree I'm not sure if this Leeds side have it in them and it might well go to form next week with a Warrington win (possibly quite comfortably) but don't think many would be surprised if we turned in a performance next week.
We are in a strange situation really. I.d never not want to win a SF and I do hope we do, but if we lost it wouldn't be the worst thing and maybe a blessing.

Go on then, Biff. After today's shenanigans across The Pond, Leythe will accept your kind offer. Thank-you.

| Is this a poll on who you think will be relegated or who you want?
Obviously I would like Leeds to go down, just for the pure comedy value.
But back in the real world, I don't see any of the current S.L. teams going down.
Which one will play in the car crash game, hmmmmm, decisions, decisions.....
I would have gone for Widnes, but as they have such a lovely ground, their feelings of grandeur should see them through, after all, teams play better in the knowledge their fans are watching in plastic seats - apparently.
No, sod it, despite them playing in R.L's Gondolin - Widnes v Toronto for the m.p.g.

| London are about to overtake Toulouse on points difference and finish 2nd
Means Leeds and Salford face both Toronto & Toulouse at home whilst HKR and Widnes have to travel away to both Canada and France.
