I'll stick my neck out - YES.

We would have beaten anyone last week - I just hope we can keep it up.

24-14 to Wigan.

So long as we keep it tight, we've got every chance. We know Leeds don't like close games. We need to have our wits about us in the first 20mins and not let them get out the blocks quickly and put a couple of scores on us. If they do I cant see us coming back. We'll need a strong defensive performance if we're to come away with the 2 points.

I think that we are going to have to improve our defence by quite a lot.

However, it's down to the forwards and if they tackle - we will win ! :D

I must admit I'm probably following my heart on this one. I know we're capable of it. Bradford weren't good last week, but the fact remains we played brilliant. If we play like that tonight, then we've every chance of beating Leeds.

But if we play like we did against Wakey, we've no chance whatsoever, and if that happens, I'll be thoroughly p155ed off, just knowing what the side is capable of.

Personally I would have to say No.

But I expect a good performance from us and there to be no more than a couple of scores in it. I just hope if the result doesn't go our way that people won't go into another panic - as long as we keep building our performances after last week we're on the right track.

The performance is probably more important than anything tonight. Don't get me wrong, I'll take a win any way I can, but tonight it really matters that we kick on from last week and, if we go down, that we go down fighting bravely. That'll keep the fans onside and keep the team's morale high.

Agree totally.

There is no harm in losing away at the Champions if you've given 100% and simply aren't good enough.

If we roll over and die then last week was all pointless.

All in the defence. If we can defend for long periods we'll have a chance.

If we do lose we need it to be a competitive defeat - bit like the cup tie last season. Don't wanna see a flogging.
