The forwards for either team will decide this one.
Regardless of Finch and H going on the injured list, we're in for a cracker.

Anyone know why HH is out?
He seemed fine on Friday?
Not another training ground accident is it?

| Quote: dany1979 "Personally don't think that this is a massive blow.
Finch is obviously important to us but if our forwards win the battle up front we still stand a very good chance of winning - if the forwards get dominated then it won't matter who is in the half-back positions.
Warrington will need to play very well to beat us.'"
I must admit I moaned that we rushed too many back too soon for the Leeds semi so this may be no bad thing.
We'll have a slightly stronger line up then we had last week against Hull which was a game we won by 38 points and it could have been a lot more.
Another Leeds or Saints away performance and more will be needed but why not? |

Exactly. This one was never going to be easy and just got a little bit harder, but it's certainly not a foregone conclusion. |

It's going to be backs against the wall stuff.
A champion team rises to the occasion. We've had injuries all year, so this shouldn't come as a surprise.
Personally, I'm looking forward to seeing how we deal with this. It's money in the bank for our younger player's.
Getting them used to high intensity rugby will serve us well in the play off's.

I'm 46 and I've had triple heart bypass surgery but, I could still put in a pretty good performance at International Rugby Union. I wouldn't last two minutes in Rugby League. - Graeme Lowe:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_68153.jpg |

On paper we will lose but games aren't won on paper as the Leeds 8-50 Wigan scoreline suggested!!

If they get back in the side 
You just never know.
Powell played his heart out against Hull, he looked very aggressive and confident for a player on debut and im sure he will relish this one! |

If you don't bother to go to the game when you live in the locality then you are not really a fan and therefore your views are invalid. It's simple.:icons39ad_files/4821-1859san_c-msnicons.jpg |

And so you aim towards the sky,
And you'll rise high today,
Fly away, Far away,
Far from pain....:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_53838.jpg |

Well, we were distinctly average at your place earlier in the season and we still managed to beat you.... |

I think we'll struggle up the middle, so our kicking game has to be on form to get the better of wire.
However, I can see how we don't want to risk key players in this match as we're 3 points clear at the top. Saints is the crunch game.

Think that's where we wont struggle to be honest, 3 days extra rest, Wane will have them fired up and hopefully get on top very early |

I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick ass, and I am all out of bubblegum.
Don't you struggle. Don't you fight. Don't you worry, cause it's your turn tonight!

You know I really was thinking that he will play. I'm sure we announced O'Loughlin as injured and not in the squad last weekend. Mind games from Wane?
