I suppose it might help all concerned if you explained your thinking
Why do you think Leeds will finish nowhere? (last time I looked they finished 3rd one place above Wigan)
Tell us why the team that has won 6 out of the last 8 GFs or whatever it is don't deserve your respect. And who do you think WILL be our greatest rivals if not Leeds?
Everyone is entitled to an opinion - provided is is based on logic or fact. I'd be interested in your logic.

| Leeds will be right up there challenging believe me.
Anyone who thinks otherwise then go and put your balls in a vice and turn the handle clockwise.

| At this stage last season how many predicted Wigan for the double? Or Huddersfield for the LLS? The only ones who could've were people who mistook hope for realism at that time. Now 12 months on these things happened despite them being unlikely.
While pre season predictions are a good way to keep these boards filled during the off-season, it all means nothing. At best you guess correctly and look like a knowledgeable rugby league fan or you end up with egg on your face giving trolls the ammo to clutter these boards and social media with their nonsense.
Leeds may well do poorly, they may win the double (although I really hope not). I for one won't be blindly predicting their demise as many (including some Wigan fans) predicted our decline after all the players we lost before last season. It does make a good debate though tbf.

Sorry but I think it's too easy to just slag opponents off without any justification. I think people should try to account for or explain their opinions on a forum. Otherwise it just goes back to playground name calling. He might well be right, after all only one team wins Super League with the rest "nowhere". But really, what does that prove? Everyone is right occasionally (stopped clock, law of averages and all that) even me!

I haven't called anyone, yet you say I'm a complete fool. Neither have I slagged Leeds off.
I said this season they will be nowhere (like last season) which is the same as saying they won't win anything. The explanation for this is on page 3. You can accept it or reject it. No idea who will win stuff but I hope it's us.
Leeds are a great club with, in the main, good supporters.

I don't think I called you a fool. But if I did I apologise. I can't find your explanation on page 3 to accept or reject. Probably should have gone to spec savers!

Apology accepted.
If you read the third and fifth posts on page 3 all will be revealed. Please note my complete scientific explanation as to why I think Leeds will win nothing! To me the LLS counts so if they win that you can all throw wet sponges at me.
Please note: I would do a professional DaveO type job of replying but I don't know how to!

Does a Challenge Cup count?
If not then we'll see you in a few weeks.

It's been a long time between drinks but I hope you enjoyed your sip or three over the weekend.

Yes of course it does. As you know I've already posted on your board.

Well done to Leeds. Whilst last season's main competition in Hudds, Warrington and Wigan have dipped a little so far (although the season deciding games are still to be played) their ageing team has solidified and developed a winning formula.
