Thats funny as some Wakey clown on here other day was claiming he did 60 mins per game. Can't remember which thread it was on

Looking forward to seeing how we fair against the Rhinos,new coach new players,new stand.
We have an opportunity to put down a marker.
Pity about Gale but we faired well without him for a fair chunk of last season.
Being a friendly we will not see the effect of reduced interchanges.
Our forwards are all capable of big minutes so l think it may favour our pack and the way we play.
I think it will be a hard game and Watkins will be keen to show what the Headingley faithful have been missing .
However l fancy us for this one.

Yea i saw that but to be honest i think he does a fair few minutes but usually in 3 stints less subs means hed have to only do 2 stints

I’m surprised people think leeds will be challengers this year. Mostly the same team. The three big signings they have made aren’t exactly fantastic. Merrin is the definition of a plodder from what I’ve seen. Hurrell can be fantastic but equally has games where he is awful. And loleheia is best described as bang average in my opinion. A lot of money spent but not a lot gained from it imo

They have the potential to be very very good this year they lacked a creative coach last year a solid halve to play alongside myler they missed Watkins for a fair bit they have potentially two of the best centres in the comp if hurrel and Watkins keep fit and reach there potential outside them anyone could be up in the top scorers the bit they may come unstuck with is there pack.
Defo should be considered contenders imo. 2 or three injury's to key players and they could come a cropper imo

Agree, managed to get them at 14/1 to win grand final (using a power up with Paddy Power) before they announced Merin and Hurrel. Looks a nice bet imo (8/1 now).

Merrin would walk into most nrl sides hurrel could be a wrecking ball in super league but his defence was shocking at times hence he never lived up to what people thought he would be
Lolehia I've a open mind on him tend to think he will do well

Think all 3 will go well to be honest. Merinn undoubtedly class, could see Lolehia been suited by super league and Hurrel likely to be less exposed defensively and even more effective offensively.

Anyone know if it’s gonna be on Tiger Talk Radio? I’m working this afternoon so would like to listen if I can. Not a fan of Radio Leeds, but if that’s the only place then it’ll do.
