I really enjoy long walks especially when they are taken by people I don't like!:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_8082.jpg |

Whilst I'm not overly confident about Friday given that we have a lot of players coming back from long term injuries and are likely to be missing Connor & Kelly plus we are still missing the likes of Westerman, Bowden, Green etc, also the likes of Griffin and Paea still seemingly struggling with injury.
I think we certainly need to have more options/structures as an attacking threat than we have seen in the 3 pre season games and am hoping its been a case of keeping our powder dry during preseason than having made no changes to our attacking options.
We are far too reliant as has been said on tries from the boot of Sneyd or individual skill from Kelly/Connor or a break from Shaul, as we lack the ability to break teams down in the opposition's 20 and create openings. Which makes us far to predictable and easy to defend against.
Whilst some of what Schofield says is plausible for me any credible spouting he comes up with is shot down by classing Kleinhorst & Garbutt as quality signings, Kleinhorst couldn't get regular game time in the Rhinos squad that finished in the bottom 4 and Garbutt for me is ok but no better than say Huby and certainly not quality.
Seems that if you played for Leeds you are automatically a quality player in Schofields head.
Its yet to be seen how things will pan out this season with the changes to the game particularly with the reduction in interchanges.
Are match day 17 squads going to carry a hooker or utility player just incase or go all out with forwards on the benches?
Too early to say how we will go but don't think the pre season has helped get the hopes up of a decent season as after attending all 3 pre season games nothing much has changed as in speed at which we play/move the ball, support play and options for the runner if a break is made was still awful and lacking and DISCIPLINE still not improved greatly.

As a neutral it was a good evenly fought derby. FC will think that their pockets been picked with the late winner, but these things happen. There wasn't a lot between the two sides on the night, which made the game in the balance for the full 80 minutes and an interesting watch.

I would think 11 successive losses last season and another at the start of this season shows pretty good consistency,the surprise is after watts having enough of you and ellis retiring,pearson signed thompson who radford deemed not good enough and dawson who is average.! |

Wanting something to change without changing anything is the first sign of .......
First change is Connor to Stand off permanent
Second would be to tear up the current attack play book and write again using outside influence
Somehow sign 2 kick ass Forwards, How ?
Who knows as we left it too late
If this doesn’t work then move the coach on
