No- I'm not saying that at all- since clearly others of those players HAVE performed on the international stage. We all know that he can rise to the big occasions for his club. I'm making an observation based on the fact he's never been able to replicate that outside of Leeds.

Sinfield is the arch type of a good player who has had a team built around him that enabled him to do brilliant things, leading them to unparalleled success.

But it's also been notable he has failed to perform on the wider stage, away from Leeds

I'd also say that if there is one player responsible for Leeds success in 2012 then that's Rob Burrow - take him out of Leeds and they are solidly mid table.

would be a big blow for them if heremia misses out as they are missing seymour too

Seymour is our back up half - Horne and Holdsworth have done well together.

Houghton is better playing 80 minutes (like it showed on Friday) than being spelled.

After watching replays, O'Meley doesn't even throw a punch so I would be surprised if he receives a ban.

I think Heremaia will probably miss the game, but Danny Houghton is capable of playing a full 80 and did so on several occasions last season.

For some reason i always look forward to our home games v the blackandwhites of Hull fc as they always seem to be good, enthralling games rather than blowouts...hope this one is gonna be the same.

On form they are a bloody good side so if were not on the ball it could be another Bradford !!

Hopefully after the way things panned out against Bradford they will prepare well for this. I expect the front four to be the same, probably the only change to be jerry coming in if fit for Dawson.
Lets hope tickle gets one match- then we don't have to sit freezing our butts off for an extra half an hour waiting for him to take the kicks- unless of course we don't give him the opportunity

Yeaman might miss this game as well possible broken hand although according to the Hullites it wont be a loss as his form has been poor this year.

no ones even given a mention to the chan injury... awaiting scan results on his knee but doesnt look good

hope hes not out for 3 months.. one of our star performers and will be a MASSIVE miss.

taai will have to step forward big time, as cording and fairbank aint a patch on chan.

Lawrence hopefully back in 3 to 4 weeks.

Yeaman and Tickle definitely out for Hull.

I would expect Pitts or Johnson to come in for Tickle - with Holdsworth taking over the kicking.

Would also expect Ben Crooks to replace Yeaman which could be a smart move as he is capable of putting his winger away better than Kirk so could be a good day for Tom Briscoe

yes but cording lawrence and fairbank dont do in attack what chan does

Let's hope we don't play like we did against Wakey and the Bulls or another tonking is on the cards.

We are notoriously slow starters, like the Bulls, l think they will throw everything at us early doors, do the basics, respect the ball, keep the fancy stuff till we are on top, l am sure with our pack and Broughs kicking game they have more to worry about than we have (what we must do) is WIN
