Which bit do you disagree with? Are you in the Wellens fan club?

I would take Gildley over Senior.
I would take Gilmour over Gibson/Ablett/Watkins.
I would take Gardner over Hall.

Add to that, I would take:

Pryce over McGuire.
Long over Burrow.

And if we are including 9's Cunningham/Roby over Diskin/Buderus.

if you want me on the forwards let me know because thats where they have really run over us this season and Leeds have been very poor.

You've got them all the wrong side. Did you have a reason to do that?
Why didn't you just respond to the player for player comparison I'd put up before?

Must have been some kind of miracle that had our depleted back line over run theirs in the Grand Final.

Change them around then, its still the same outcome Richie.

Gilmour is a player I would have loved to see at Leeds, possibly the most criminally underrated player in SL.

That couldn't of happened because this is the worse squad in our history and if we don't open the cheque book and sign,sign,sign our club is doomed and bluey and GH will be remebered for destroying us!

Yes, you are referring to the side that Tony Smith built, what has this new coach added to the equation?

Have Leeds gone dramatically backwards this season or not, I know you can't see past the blinkers but come on, even you aren't that daft!!

I don't have blinker's just belief in a squad that's brought success,a coach that's won at the highest level plus been the only coach to ever win a WCC and a SL title in the same season.
Oh but no i forgot the player's totally ignored him and played how TS wanted them to play!!
We are missing ellis no doubt but is that GH or Bluey's fault??
Many have asked who is available and at what price??
We are playing pant's at the moment no-doubt about it and they are very low on confidence and with that comes disjointed structure's and mis-timed pass's and defeats.
We will see how good this squad is come october and then and only then will we know fully if it's been a bad season or not.
New signing's don't always work or have an immediate impact FFS people are writing off a squad that contains the like's of Webb,Senior,Donald,Peacock,Sinfield,Mcguire,Burrow,Ali etc etc these are the same player's that have won the lot.
Are they all past it???
Are we the worst team in the league??
Or maybe just maybe we've had a dip in form and if you'd read the coach's comments pre-season you'd known that this has been a completely different build up to the season ahead with the world cup and injuries etc.

he improved on 2007. a team should look to improve on the year before. smith improved on 2003 in his first season.
smith was garbage in 2006. these things happen in sport
