As good as it gets. : Mon Dec 25, 2023 6:41 pm  

Just watched the Documentary about the Leeds team that won the 2015 triple.

If you forget about it being Leeds, it’s a brilliant watch.

I also defy anyone to not wish that the same might happen to us. Especially heart wrenching when looking at Rob Burrow

Found it really uplifting, proof positive that it better to emulate then envy.

That was built over many years. It'll take a long time to emulate that.

Twenty years to be exact.

It doesn’t need to take that long or be quite as ambitious, it’s the principle. Being back in SL, and competing and maybe a CC in the next few years would do most of us.

I for one dare not look as far as twenty years ahead and be sure I’ll still be here, so my aims are definitely more modest.

Couldn't agree more BLM, and I was there for best part of 4 years.

Them, Cas and Catalans only teams I despise.

Anyway, good to see you and Mick earlier

Dear god, no wonder we’ve been a second rate club for the last 50 years. Thank god Ellis and Powell don’t take that attitude and will use Leeds as a template, but hey let’s ignore a successful method, that’s the way to do it

We’d be just as arrogant if we did, go on the RW&B forum, you’ll see what I mean

You despise, you mean your jealous.

So you despise Leeds who treat us quite fairly, but you don’t despise Saints who treat us like poop, odd.
