Very pleasantly surprised with that squad anouncement, gives us more than just a chance now, I was fearing the worst. Fingers crossed, but whatever the result, nice to see some players back.

How big spending? Both clubs have spent the full salary cap.

I would say Leeds clearly thought that they couldn’t beat saints judging by the team they picked against them. They are going all out for this one against us on Monday, and I think they fancy giving us a fair touch up. I personally don’t think they are quite as good as they think they are and we’ve a chance if we play well but if our defence doesn’t improve it could be a long night. Good to see some players coming back but it seems as soon as we get players Coming into form like Jaques and Milner they get injured. Maybe Milner rested? Anyway I live in hope and I’ll go for a narrow victory in a high scoring contest. COYF

Exactly. If you included transfer fees spent in the last few years, we’ve spent a lot more than Leeds on players.

Would be good to rough Galey's fringe up and would have loved young Jaques to be the one to do it. Ah well, someone else's chance.

Interesting fixture but I think if we play how I know we can play we should win this one. If anyone knows how Gale can play it's us so shut him down early and then watch the wheels come off the Whinos.

Okay so I've put on my rose tinted specs & my tin hat. Does anyone think we can win our last 5 games? It means beating Leeds twice but we can do that. :-" :-" I think Hull & Catalans have to play Wigan & St Helens, Leeds to play WIgan. Even if Catalans manage to play again I can't see them playing & winning 3 games. That means we would end up on 22 points and 4th spot! Seems unlikely but hope springs eternal even in covid autumn. Would be worth it to annoy the Leeds fans. :D :D

My mistake. Catalans 3 games are St Helens, Hull KR & Huddersfield. Still think they would struggle to play all 3 with covid in their camp & play and beat saints on bonfire night.

You’re right Fumper of course but couldn’t Catalans be cut out if they can’t play more games?
