Improve team ethos?!  Noooooo I won't have that! Do wigan burn sentimental stuff in a bin and stick it do an effigy of their club mascot?! Nope, but we do! 

Same. He was the best 9 we've had for a few years imo. We didn't do our job getting the best out of him. 

Leeming seemed better at 7 than 9 for Leeds and had issues with his defence and distribution. And he obviously looks good with a better side around him. That said, I would have preferred to keep him at Leeds.


Not sure if Leeming is better than Ackers. Leeds version of Leeming on a good day is probably better than the Leeds version of Ackers. But I think Ackers is the more complete 9 - such a shame he hasn't really clicked at Leeds yet. Perhaps it is too soon to write him off, and that he will be better when (if!) the team settles to the way Arthur wants them to play.

yeah i think Ackers and Croft need more time yet.. and they need a much better pack to play with. 

Not sure we'll go with 5 props in the 17.
And Lisone should miss out.
I think:


Miller
Lumb
Newman
Handley
Hall
Croft
Connor
Oledski
O'Connor
Palaasia
Bentley
McDonnell
Gannon


Holroyd
Jenkins
Frawley
ECW

Really don't fancy us at all in this one but you never know. Crowd need to be on form to give the lads a boost thats for sure. Think Wigan may win by 16+ though... hope i'm massively wrong.
