Hell! So why exactly would you drop Hardaker?....and Kirke????? Why?

Re: Team for Leigh : Fri May 30, 2014 10:09 pm  

I'd expect a reaction to tonights pathetic efforts but how we will line up is anyones guess.
Personally I'd go with
Hardaker
Handley
Watkins
Moon
Hall
Sutcliffe
Sinfield
JP
R.Ward
Singleton
Delaney
Ablett/S.Ward(If Abbo is banned)
Minchella

England
Mulhern
Kylie
Bailey

(RB would be an interchange BR)

Do we want to go to Wembley or not? Putting anything less than our best team put could seriously come back and bite us on the the 'arris.

Re: Team for Leigh : Fri May 30, 2014 10:25 pm  

Ahhh I miss these days of us losing a game and thus the answer being putting 5/6 Academy lads in. Priceless!

Re: Team for Leigh : Fri May 30, 2014 10:27 pm  

Unless Hardaker has a knock I don't see much benefit in dropping him. In fact I'd make him captain for the game.

1. Jones-Bishop
2. Briscoe
3. Ablett
4. Moon
5. Hall
6. Hardaker
7. Sutcliffe
8. Singleton
9. Ward, R
10. Kirke
11. Minchella
12. Clarkson
13. Ward, S

14. Achurch
15. Delaney
16. Bailey
17. Mulhern

Rest Sinfield, McGuire, Peacock, Leuluai & Watkins. Give Sutcliffe a full game opportunity in the halves, see how Hardaker does at SO & captain and it's an opportunity for the more senior forwards like Kirke & Bailey to prove they deserve to still be at Leeds, even against 2nd tier opposition.

I remember you telling us the likes of Minns Foster Sutcliffe & Singleton were not ready for a chance as well whilst defending the likes of Kirke and Vickery!
That team should be good enough to beat Leigh no matter how good they have been playing plus we have a very tough game v the Giants the following thursday and given how knackered our pack looked tonight it wouldn't be a bad thing to rotate the squad.

Plenty of big game experience in that 17 and the added enthusiasm of youth and potential.
Not only that Abbo could be banned ,Achurch is injured (knee in a brace) and shouldn't one or two e rotated or dropped?

Actually said people shouldn't aim such abuse and vitriol at Vickery......shouting "Vickery you're sh*t" whilst he returned a kick at Headingley I still deem idiotic to this day regardless of his ability.

Did I say Singleton wasn't ready? Or Mulhern last few weeks? I never said not "not ready" but ease into the first team sensibly,,,,,,,,not because some fans who like to follow the youth team have rose tinted gigs on and want them in soon as possible.

Re: Team for Leigh : Fri May 30, 2014 11:10 pm  

Rose tinted specs or want to see their form and potential rewarded?
Im happy to agree to disagree but its certainly not knee jerk or rose tinted specs!
