Going back to the Burrows incident, that was a malicious knee, and if that was a Wigan player who had done that the other fans would let us know about it
I can't see a problem with that. Just an accident IMO.
As a RL I have much more of a problem with Delaney's spear tackle on Greenwood about a minute before the Burrow incident. Clearly lifted and driven into the floor. Greenwood was fortunate he got his elbow down to soften the blow. I'm very suprised this hasn't been mentioned elsewhere.

Nothing at all in it. Just poor tackling technique.

Can't see anything wrong with that

If none of the rest of our backline scare you then I can only imagine that you believe that Burrow is the only player worthy of being scared of in the whole league |

Friday will be great entertainment no doubt, but don't expect any pointers to what will happen later in the season. In 2012 we ran up 50 at Headingley but lost out to them in both semis, last season we were outclassed at the DW in the last regular round but finished up with the double.

IMO gelling and Hughes played themselves out of the Leeds game with their performances today, just not good enough. I'd go:
Bowen
Manfredi
Goulding
Sarginson
Burgess
Green
Smith
Taylor
McIlorum
Clubb
Farrell
Bateman
O'Loughlin
Williams
Sutton
Crosby
James

Hughes is really struggling. His handling was appalling today again I thought and he just doesn't look focussed enough.
I'd go-
Bowen
Manfredi (great test against Hall)
Goulding
Sarginson
Burgess
Green
Smith
Taylor
McIlorum
Clubb
Farrell
Bateman
Lockers
Subs
James
Crosby
Gelling (covering back row/centre)
Williams
Tough ask for us minus a couple of props and first choice outside backs but we seem to rise to these big occasions.

You're not wrong. I think we may come up short here, would be a lot more confident if Flower was available. As it is we'll be pushed into running with Sutton and James as two of our four props (hopefully not both at the same time) |

I'd sooner play a Leeds side without Burrows than with him in a SF or Final, thats not arrogance thats choosing the best time to play Leeds. Troll on |

First off it's Burrow, secondly, that's not what you said is it? You said he was the only player in the Leeds side that scared you, thus implying that you think the rest of them are quite ordinary. I don't think it's trolling to suggest that saying that (or that Leeds are 'a very solid outfit at best') is a touch arrogant. |

I think Dudson will probably come back in after his ban, but he really needs a vastly improved performance from what we've seen from him recently. I guess it'll be something like:
Bowen
Manfredi/Sarginson
Goulding
Sarginson/Gelling
Burgess
Green
Smith
Taylor
McIlorum
Crosby
Farrell
Bateman
O'Loughlin
Dudson
Clubb
James
Powell/Williams
