I think it is an important game to win and we should try to keep our momentum not just for the Cup match but for the tough Wigan and Cas games that follow. If we get well on top we could give longer minutes to the subs

We shouldn't underestimate Salford. Kylie and Delaney could be rested, but we need momentum for Saturday. Could maybe rest Watkins, but as our most potent attacker he should be given as much game time as possible. Besides, McD wasn't willing to play Bish in the centres when Moon was injured so will he now??

I'd go:

Hardaker
Briscoe/Bish
Watkins
Moon
Hall
McGuire
Sinfield
Peacock
Burrow
Singleton
Achurch
Ablett
Clarkson

Kirke
Bailey
Sutcliffe
Briscoe/Bish

Anyone hear the explosions last night? Textile place in kirkstall on fire or something? Don't know why I posted this in this thread but it's too late now.

You should quickly edit your post with something like "I'd play Sinfield at full back because..." and no-one will notice.

from the announced squad I'd go with:

1. Hardaker
2. Jones-Bishop
3. Watkins
4. Moon
5. Hall
13. Sinfield
6. McGuire
23. Singleton
7. Burrow
16. Bailey
19. Achurch
12. Ablett
18. Clarkson

8. Leuluai
10. Peacock
17. Kirke
21. Sutcliffe

Give Singo & Bailey a chance to stake a claim from starting, give Kylie & JP spells but no more than 30 minutes each. Get Kirke some more game time.

Is the above mentioned fire likely to cause problems getting to the game this afternoon?

Could it be that going off with a Bang 'suits' you? Bit of a yarn though!

Heard the Armley Gyratory has been closed (whether that remains the same by the time of Leeds game I'm not sure).

Back on topic, this is a game the Rhinos need to win and they need to field a side with the correct mindset to deliver.

Thursday night was less effort than many training sessions so I can't see a need to change the side unless McDermott feels certain players will be ring rusty going into the game on Saturday
