Well, you rhino fans are gonna have a great day out watching your team have a points fest... A few salford fans thought the same last week against Bradford...food for thought.

No bites at thought food cast your net when we're hungry

Leeds 37-10 Rovers. Although that doesn't mean I'm not nervous as anything.

Hull KR cannot beat us in 'finals football'. That is they don't have it in them to grind out a result in the type of games where neither defence nor attack make many mistakes, they score too much from deep and aren't good enough in defence.



I think for them to beat us, they need to control the ball. Leeds were happy last year to complete sets and confident they could get over the line in enough times in 80 mins. Hull KR will need to push it. That kind of battle doesn't suit them. So you would expect they need to put some early points on the board. If Hull KR can get a score or two ahead it will give them confidence, allow them to settle and force Leeds to push it and that's when mistakes happen and there is no doubt they can get enough points on the board to win. Conversely I think if they come out and try things and they don't come off, they will give away far too much possession and far too much position and the game will get away from them early.



I feel like a should be confident and we should win by a couple of scores and with a little to spare. But im not. I was more confident last year even though Cas were consistently a better side. I dont think we will lose, but Hull KR are far likelier to win than people think imo

In fairness the kind of game you are describing there is exactly the way we beat Wigan and Wire, albeit in poor conditions.

The Wigan game was down to conditions, I don't think either side intended a game like that.



Warrington was a pretty open game, there were 44 points in it and could have been a few more. Contrasted with say the Leeds v Cas final last year where there were only 33 points and not a lot of other chances.

Comparing Leeds to Salford.....always a wise move.

KR have scored quite a few points against us this year, and Wembley is a huge (wide) pitch. Rhinos by 13 but it will be high scoring.

Our defence has upped its performances when it's come to the cup games though. Also 16 at Headingley is ok but nothing special and the 30 points at their place did happen opening day.....this year's team has found its feet a lot since those first few weeks when we won games in just 20 minutes bursts and our new style of play in 2015 has had time to gel and become stronger and more consistent.

Well of course there is never less than a few Salford fans thinking things like that

I remember 2005 in Cardiff and Leeds thought the same then but hey ho may the best team win

See you could take that as a troll but that was 10 years ago. The game (I'm mean the sport) was very different. This Leeds team is different, the players who still play for the club who lost that day are the champions they are because of that day and other major losses and victories.



It's 05 and other losses that make this champion team better prepaired for what is to come tomoz.



In a funny way FC have helped those Leeds players become the success they are.
