Leeds in the past...... : Thu Apr 16, 2009 11:06 am  

here's how our home meetings with Leeds fair in Super League :

1998: Giants 16 - 72 Leeds att: 5,762
1999: Giants 20 - 42 Leeds att: 5,346
2000: Giants 20 - 48 Leeds att: 3,226 (at Bramall Lane)
2000: Giants 12 - 20 Leeds att: 5,019
2001: Giants 26 - 32 Leeds att: 4,654
2003 Giants 30 - 24 Leeds att: 6,340
2004 Giants 10 - 42 Leeds att: 6,011
2005 Giants 10 - 54 Leeds att: 10,088
2006 Giants 14 - 36 Leeds att: 7,416
2007 Giants 12 - 25 Leeds att: 10,241
2008 Giants 10 - 30 Leeds att: 15,629

so the record is :
p w d l f a
11 1 0 10 180 424

Think its fair to say they have the History in this fixture .
can we get only our 2nd win over them in SL ?

interesting to look at some of the early attendances too when their fans probably made up well over half the crowd - not anymore !!

its better now though

Daz we had the history against Salford and look what happened.
Two games over Easter we should have won easy no disrespect to Bradford and Salford.
But on paper we should have murdered them both.
If we play like that again this Saturday we will lose by 30 against you guys.
Lets hope the players have more confidence than me.

I just want a good, hard fought game with lots of skill and power. And a massive attendance would be nice. Ideally a new record crowd for us although I'm not sure we will top last years great figure.

They had more than half the crowd in both of those games. So hardly restricted to early attendances.
