Look what happened in the 'winnable' games against Cas and Wakefield last season. I'm not saying it is a certainty, but Leeds have a habit of finding a way to lose in these kinds of games, especially when we are coming off poor form and the expectation of fans and media is behind us. On paper we should win convincingly, but if the mentality isn't there a loss feels like it is on the cards. I hope I'm wrong!
For some reason this team (and those of everyone since and including McDermott) seem to be brought down to the quality of the opposition instead of playing at the level they are capable of.
Edgell is good under the high ball and Roberts will be less exposed at centre, so we should be sound under kick pressure that side. I’d try to keep some consistency in the pack but Ruan replaces Goudemand for me if fit.

This lot get beaten by 50 pts every week , so not sure where we go if we can't win this one as they really are garbage .
He could be another couple of weeks, or he could be longer than that. We’re trying not to reserve judgement until we know and until the consultant gives us the direction on that one.
“James is in decent health but he’s not able to crank up the training load as yet. He’s in good spirits, staying positive and hoping that we can turn a corner with it and get back to full training sometime soon.”
Shame, we could do with his aggression on the pitch right now.
