| Just watched the Documentary about the Leeds team that won the 2015 triple.
If you forget about it being Leeds, it’s a brilliant watch.
I also defy anyone to not wish that the same might happen to us. Especially heart wrenching when looking at Rob Burrow
Found it really uplifting, proof positive that it better to emulate then envy.

| That was built over many years. It'll take a long time to emulate that.

Twenty years to be exact.
It doesn’t need to take that long or be quite as ambitious, it’s the principle. Being back in SL, and competing and maybe a CC in the next few years would do most of us.
I for one dare not look as far as twenty years ahead and be sure I’ll still be here, so my aims are definitely more modest.

Couldn't agree more BLM, and I was there for best part of 4 years.
Them, Cas and Catalans only teams I despise.
Anyway, good to see you and Mick earlier

Dear god, no wonder we’ve been a second rate club for the last 50 years. Thank god Ellis and Powell don’t take that attitude and will use Leeds as a template, but hey let’s ignore a successful method, that’s the way to do it

We’d be just as arrogant if we did, go on the RW&B forum, you’ll see what I mean

You despise, you mean your jealous.
So you despise Leeds who treat us quite fairly, but you don’t despise Saints who treat us like poop, odd.

| I can't say I despise anyone. Certainly not players who just play the sport I love.
I think you can respect great achievement even when it's not your team.
But I want us to be the best team in every game. Not always the case but that's sport.

| I would normally tend to agree here PT.
There were some very unsavoury comments aimed our way from their, following the financial issues we had at the start of the millenium.
Around that same time there was a lack of trust between certain folk of Yorkshire CC and Leeds Rugby Ltd.
Maybe they weren't whiter than white

| Shudds will always hold a special place within my loathing glands but have really been superseded at the top my hate plinth by Hull KR over the last couple of years.
Don't think the Saints club or it's fans do themselves any favours either but it's all pantomime villain stuff there.
I do enjoy bad news for Salford too. That started with their covid scams.

Do you think that we'd have been a more successful club 50 years ago if High Chaperal had watched a documentary about the Leeds team of 2015?

If you want to set a benchmark on the playing front, one good set of short videos to watch was a series from about 3 years ago, called Preparing The Panthers. It touches on training, diet, rehab etc
Its also good for positive mindset for those who generally want to get fitter.
I've watched them myself a few times if I want to get a bit leaner
