As JJB said in his interview the aim is to win only one game. Doesnt matter how you get there.

Id settle for top 8 and winning the CC
If the aim is to win only one game it goes a long way to explaining the faults in our game.

After how this season as ended I just hope we don't follow in the footsteps of the last 2 previous LLS winners. To stop being the great pretenders we need to sign a couple of quality forwards who wont go missing in the big games.

It is. Winning the league by 10pts made no diff in end. Its all about the 1 game. Its stupid but true

There's absolutely no reason why we should and I don't believe we will

We need to avoid finishing in the bottom 4 as the last two LLS winners have done the following season. We need a full-back or it could well happen again. Top 4 is a wild dream without some signings. A big prop and a full-back needed.

Eden is not the answer at full-back. We lose our most potent attacking threat (he will not score 10 tries at full-back) and he is not godd positionally or devensively. Moving Eden to full back means we lose two players.

I think the top 8 positions will be very tight next year with not much separating them. I think leeds will fall away again as they have replaced 2 good half backs with a very average Richie myler, plus their already old forwards are another step nearer retirement. if eden goes to full back gary lo could be worth a punt for leading scorer.
