be competitive, show structure and attacking plays.
blood youngsters.
finish 6/7th I'll be happy if progress is made

Re: Hopes for 2019 : Wed Nov 14, 2018 6:53 pm  

Being competitive, having a pack that isn't beaten every week, not running around like headless chickens in attack, top 6 finish or if no more signings just avoiding bottom 3.

GH to unleash the financial muscle of the loiners against the greedy shysters over the pennines, sign up 3 world classers and blow them away using the methods they aspire to.

Will it happen? Probably not but it would be fun.

Now that would be quite something.

Just to be challenging again will do me for next year. Need to build for a title push in 2020

Top 6

Pick form players in the best positions all season.

Be ruthless in terms of getting players out and ambitious for those coming in.

Genuine attention on the youth set up and clear organised paths into the first team.

Enjoy watching Leeds again.

Nothing less than challenging for honours again, controversially. I do think the team will develop quite a bit over the next few years, especially with this promising crop of Academy lads... but I don’t think the margins in Super League are massive.

Two or three more of the right signings in the right positions, plus some Furner magic and structure... first time we’ve used our marquee allowance after winging it for years..

It will most likely depend on injuries again. SL squads just don’t have the depth NRL squads do to handle injuries. We’ll need Ward and a couple of other key players to stay on the park.

After last year, just enjoying going to games would be a bonus!

I hope we just show a bit more of everything to be honest, I’m perfectly happy not to win anything but I want to see us competing with some structure, flair and hard work.

One thing I am looking forward to is the stadium being finished I think it’s going to be a fabulous place to watch the rugby and having a half built stadium all last year did take a lot away from the gameday/night experience

Very much this. I will also add more jnrs given games rather than plodders like Mullally Ferres Walters & IF we retain Sutcliffe play him one position leave him thrre & if he doesnt perform move him on.

Also hope the new SS is full and vibrant and really gives these new lads an idea of what playing for Leeds can be about if they want it badly enough.

I hope you do well. Can't see Top 4, possibly sneak 5th. More than likely 6-9th.
Love your backline and half backs. Pack looks average for Super League. Gonna need Smith and Mikolaj to step up but probably a bit too soon for them. Buchanan, Ablett, Ferres cant be expected to carry the weight too much.

Wish you well, I hope you win something this season.

Thanks bud. All the best to you lads as well
