I am not confident that we (Leeds) will get near you on Friday.

Not only do we have a fair amount of players missing through injury.

We also have the likes of Webb and Delaney clearly struggling with injuries that normally they would not be playing.

Whilst we have a good squad the team are missing specilaised wingers and a key player in Sinfield not to mention the likelihood of JP missining which will be an even bigger blow.

By rights you should win this by plenty.

Thought I would get my excuses in early.

It could be worse they could give us Silverwood to blame.

Leeds = loss

Saints = win, edge of the seat, heart attack material type of game with just a few points in it

Wakey = Draw



hope we win all 3 but just can't see it

big test which we should be aiming to win 3/3



we want to really put a marker down now and frighten the rest of the league. weve got the chance to, I think we will win all 3.



beat leeds this week; hopefully hudds brutal defence smashes saints all over the place on friday. go to the shed on friday and edge a close game and beat wakey to round up a great easter! we have the squad and now is the time to use it

The next three are a massive indicator as to where we are. Also where everyone else is too.

Saints go to Hudds this weekend and that's not a guaranteed win for Saints, either way one will lose and drop down the table.

Wakey go to Wire and I can't see them winning at the HJ at all.



As for us, I think we'll beat Leeds as we do play well at home. They are usually a fast team on the back of a big pack. Their pack is missing important players and they are in trouble. A top form Wigan should see them off.



What does worry me are the number of points being conceded away from home and the soft tries being let in.

20 conceded at Wire, 22 at Bradford and 22 yesterday at Cas. If we concede 20 or 22 at Saints we'll be in big trouble.

If the coaching staff can sort that out then we really are in business.

We now have two home games out of the three and I think we'll win both. The real one we want to win and need to win is at Saints.

I think the game against Leeds will be similar to the game against Hull FC. I think we will lose to Saints as it is there last game against us at KR, so they will not want to lose it. And then hopefully if the Saints game hasnt taken too much out of us we should beat Wakefield, even more so now they might be without Brough.



I would take 2 wins out of 3 right now, even though saying that if we lose against Saints our lead at the top will be cut.

most teams will drop points over easter, we dont have to win every game!

This is a big 10 days for us. Leeds are beatable with their injuries. the saints game i think is winnable as well. they will have ashorter turn around compared to us by having a hard game against Hudds and then we have wakefield, often a banana skin but think mm and wane will sort tyhe team out to raise to this chalange. really think we can get all 6 points and realy lay down a marker especially as we follow these games up with Salford Sheffield and quins all winnabl;e at a canter so get thye team through these 10 days and let MM rotate the team for the next few weeks so we can get everyone at 100 fit

These next few weeks are a massive test for the players and coaches.



Having said that it's always good to point out how well we've done in the past 6.5 games

we've played some good teams and had some very good results- Wire away and Hull FC spring to mind. Whilst we can't rest on these victories they were exceptional results and we should be proud to use them as bench marks for just how well we've played.



I'm confident that the significant test the next three games poses will bring the best out in our players. It's sure gonna have Wane pumped up and he'll be making sure the players are ready.



All in all I've just got a feeling that it's our time and we are gonna be in for a big & good few weeks.

If we're still top of the league after Easter Monday, to quote Brian Carney, I'll be as happy as a rabbit with three c*cks!

A win at Saints would mean the world to me personally, I'm sick of walking away from their with a loss. Some fans from other clubs might try and wind me up by saing its my "cup final" well, it frigging well is! I would LOVE to walk away from their place with a win.

Don't see us winning all three, it's a really, really tough run of fixtures coming up in quick succession. 2 out of 3 would be outstanding.

After our next two we have a run of very winnable games. Getting one win out of Leeds and Saints would do me. I think it will have to come this Friday personally, can't see Saints losing the last derby at KR. They'll feel just as our players did for the last one at CP - they'd never live it down with the fans if they lost that one.
