The return of the favourite son and Lowes and it's on Sky. Eddie will be so excited that he probably won't even mention the opposition, just Leeds all night. Thank God Ben Barba does'nt play for Leeds. We will not be 'allowed' to get anywhere near a win.

I'd not even thought of that! Jesus Christ!

I think 2016 was a result of the pitch being underwater and unusable down at Kirkstall? Same year as the virus in the camp at Wiggin?
They haven't looked as fit as usual in many games where they normally found a way to win in the past.
That said Chewy, I got a bad feeling about this one.

Dare I ask who the ref is, sure not J.... C....?

Hicks is ref. Thaler is video ref.

Only one change in squad. Finn out Batchelor in.
That guarantees my attendance.

One of the Cas fans that posts on here said that Leeds came out all guns blazing for the first 15 minutes, then fizzled out.
With our track record of slow starts, if some of the Leeds players are only 70% fit, 15 minutes is enough time to rack up a match winning lead.

If this were a game of football it would be like

England v Albania

or

Man Utd V Northampton.

I did say how unfit Leeds were and I've just seen an interview with Liam Watts where he confirms this. He more or less says they knew Leeds would fall away in the final 20 minutes and they did.
I can't see one weeks training making that much difference to their fitness.
If you can keep in touch score wise going into the final quarter you should win ok.
