Apologies to everyone concerned!



As I stated earlier, it's going to be an interesting season.



Despite arguments to the contrary I think Leeds are going to struggle a bit as they go through the next few years. Their golden generation is getting older and will take some replacing. They also have a coach who hasn't really proven himself (IMHO of course). The kids coming through may come good but don't look as good as the likes of McGuire, Burrow, Sinfield, Bailey, Diskin etc at the same age.



Of course I could be wrong, but I would be surprised to see Leeds finish higher than 4th next year.

Ah right, good job we had some players in the 4 nations then isn't it and Quins didn't.



Oh bollox, I've done it again. Must be that time of the month.

We had Bradford developed players there.



Hit me with all this London talent?



Please do, im waiting.x

Answer the question.

Will you throw your mouse mat at me if I don't?



Jog on Mavis.

We'll just take it that you dont have the answers.

Don't feed the troll. I did and it got me nowhere!

GH obviously wouldn't make a decision to deliberately derail his own club but everyone makes mistakes at some stage. Similarly, Peacock, Sinfield and Senior may speak highly of Brian McDermott's coaching ability but, as an example, Steve McNamara received similar plaudits when he took over from Brian Noble. In fact, some senior players still stand right behind McNamara as a coach despite his record at Bradford. It's good to listen to your players but sometimes their views can be clouded by other factors (maybe the player feeling they 'owe' the coach something for a specific role in their development) and somethimes they can just be wrong.



Personally I feel Brian Mac will do alright at Leeds but it's never a simple case of fact and fiction. A number of factors will arise to determine his relative success or failure. But cherry-picking facts to suit your argument for McDermott while ignoring the undeniable positive abilities possessed by Mick Potter is a little disingenuous. Both have pros and cons as coaches and both should go fine with their respective clubs this season.

You've got no answers.

You're just being rude there considering you had a pop at someone earlier in the thread for using the phrase 'the likes of' when picking out examples of Leeds players. You're obviously a knowledgeable bloke, why resort to cheap insults?

He is a she, apparentely.

I sustained my point.



At what point do I need your assistance or suggestions? Oh that's right, I don't. So on ya go flower with your new alias.
