Only way we'll win it is if we increase our defensive intensity for the full 80. Give them any space and they'll tear us to shreds no matter who we have back in the team

We'll concede over 30 points and we certainly won't score that many. Comprehensive win for Leeds.

I am confident.

Leeds have made winning big games their speciality and will come to blow us away, if we don't tighten up the defence we won't win.

Big test for agar IMO. We'll have a near full strength team and are at home. If we get dicked then it will really put the pressure on

On who ?

Berro and Long are huge misses.

Originally I would have waited until after the two Leeds games before offering Agar any sort of deal, unfortunately we never.

HUGE !
Been told there isnt a chance of Long playing next weekend and obviously Berro wont be !

The whole club

It will be a much closer game and I wouldn't be surprised to see us win it on the back of a massive 80 minutes of effort.

Agreed, much like the effort we gave against the dobbins.

I don't see how the original poster can be 100% confident.

Leeds gifted you a few tries with sloppy passing.

But it will be a different game alltogether. Hull will be fired up, at home, will have a few more troops back maybe?

It's do or die so both teams will tighten up in defence. Expect a much closer, lower scoring game.

You have to remember that leeds have made it their personal mission in recent seasons to perform and win in the big games and although this is CC and not the playoffs I think leeds will come out guns blazing early doors to try and blow hull away and kill the contest. If they don't get the start they want expect a very close game, which is what i think we'll have.

Long will not be back on Saturday I'm sure of that.

I regard the fact that the club has not given any indication of when he will be back as bad news rather than good.

I'm more confident that we'll beat Leeds than win them.

Or mind games (or Longy has a bet on Saturday's game )
