So, we come off of a decent win against Wigan but lets not kid ourselves, We are still awful with ball in hand. On the flip side though we are the best defensive team in the league and our line speed is close to being the best I have seen it, especially this early in the year. That will make sure we are always in with a shout this year.

Leeds should win, but with 5 inches of snow forecast who knows.

Ill go for Leeds by 6

Leeds squad: Kallum Watkins, Joel Moon, Ryan Hall, Danny McGuire, Rob Burrow, Kylie Leuluai, Paul McShane, Jamie Peacock, Jamie Jones-Buchanan, Carl Ablett, Kevin Sinfield, Stevie Ward, Brett Delaney, Ryan Bailey, Ian Kirke, Chris Clarkson, Mitch Achurch, Richard Moore, Joe Vickery.

Wakefield squad: Richard Mathers, Peter Fox, Dean Collis, Lee Smith, Ben Cockayne, Paul Sykes, Justin Poore, Paul Aiton, Ali Lauiti'iti, Danny Washbrook, Kyle Wood, Kyle Amor, Oliver Wilkes, Frankie Mariano, Kyle Trout, Vince Mellars, Reece Lyne, Matty Wildie, Chris Annakin.

A nice little side note aswell will be to see how long it takes Bailey to wind up Poore enough to get sent off again

I know games are not won on paper. But if we can not beat that lot there`s something wrong.
Full credit to Wakefield for putting in some good performances this season and credit must go to their coach.
But we should win this one comfortably and the same goes for our next match against Bradford.
Now if that isn`t the kiss of death nothing is.

Technically, Wigan and Huddersfield have conceded fewer points per game conceded than we have.

No Tim Smith again, so that is a big loss for them.
& the referee is Steve Ganson.

This a tricky game, bad weather/snow forecast against one of our near neighbours away from home, who'll love to get one over us......sounds like Cas from several weeks ago.

And our recent visits to Wakey haven't been great, 2 losses and 2 wins from the last 4. And the two wins weren't convincing, it took a last second Scott Donald try in 2009 to snatch the win and 2011 we ran out 28-6 winners but we were absolutely woeful for the first 40.

I expect the same 17, I'd guess their isn't any concern over Ablett otherwise Keinhorst would've probably been drafted into the 19 for cover. That England had a training get together this week only adds to the trickiness with a chunk of our squad attending that.

But as Harrigan mentioned, the defence has been much better this year so I don't see us conceding 38 points like last year so it's a question of how well we execute in attack. If we can avoid coughing up the ball early in the tackle count and in our own half too much and shooting ourselves in the foot then I think we'll have enough to win. Quite obvious plan I know but target Hall vs Fox in attack especially with kicks, it worked well last year even in defeat.

I doubt we will see the gutless wonder anywhere near Poore throughout the game - that is unless Poore is unconscious on the floor then Bailey will probably kick him in the back - what a guy.

I think we are in for a tough match but saying that beating ST's away and Bouncing back last week shows imo we are also Tougher this year even if we arent taking many of our chances.
I've gone for us by 10 and im looking forward to it always enjoy Wakey away epecially if we win!!

That's another one for TFMISL to put in the keep net.
C'mon Vasty mate i expected better from you fella!

Why would you expect better from him? He's continuously proved himself to been a jealous one eyed know nowt with a humongous chip on his shoulder.

With regards Leeds, same arguments as always with me, and especially this time of year. Where's the fooking resting of players? What is it with this coach. We have a tough Easter coming up, and certainly Sinfield could do with a break to be ready for Easter. He's been off his game for weeks. He is not alone.
