Remember Kelepi coming back too soon a couple of years back

Leeds are at full strength apart from Sivo.
It's just a case of whether they play the new centre with Handley on the wing or play tge kid on the wing.

Miller is out as well I believe

Don’t think they’ll miss him the way Connor playing tbf.

Yes and let’s not forget we have only a 5 day turnaround to KR. If Vagana is fit he plays but if not I’d probably have Doyle or Roarke on bench.

Jowitt
Walmsley
Pratt
Hall
Johnstone
Trueman
Lino
Mckmeeken
Hood
Rodwell
Croft
Storton
Pitts

Russell
Uele
Faatilli
Vagana

He is but as Connor is there I'm thinking Miller was not a starter anyway.

Just happened to catch up on the Trinity-Cas friendly and I have to say I was disappointed with Trinity's go forward. Contrary to the reports it seemed Cas made more yards and we struggled. Leeds will have a very fast line speed and I'm not sure we have the nal to deal with it. Going to be a tough afternoon so on that basis I see Matty Russell starting on the wing.

Just shows you then how pointless stats are when Wakefield won convincingly!
I don't think walmsley was to blame for that but he does, for some reason, be the one a lot on here believe is the weakest link.

I actually have no idea how we will perform in this game. The squad is improved beyond all recognition but we have several players without experience at this level. I hope for the best but even defeat will be a good learning experience which will hold us in good stead for future games.

Agree. A good performance is what's needed- awin on top of that would be nice.

Well we've seen the level of defence we are going to need in Super League now.

Bring it on.

We could lose the first four or win a couple, either way the fans need to keep positive. A statement win would be really good but later in season with games against Cas or Hudds we will pick up wins. 8th-9th or 6th to 7th depends on how many "bigger" teams we can turn over so home games will be massive and a big crowd all season will help.
