Kick off 3.00pm Sunday 12th Feb Headingley
Here we go!!
Hull have already got their season off to a flyer and no doubt by the time we kick off, Wigan and Saints will have too.
It should be close to a reduced capacity Full House of 16,600 to see Jamie Peacock pull on the Leeds shirt competitively for the first time, together with other new boys Shane Millard and Scott Donald, not surprisingly Nathan McAvoy does not make the 20 - still not worked that one out, (The signing I mean!)
We should be at full strength with the exception of other new boy Mark O’Neill with the starting 13 picking themselves:
Mathers, Donald, Walker, Senior, Smith, McGuire, Burrow, Bailey, Diskin, Peacock, Lauitiiti, Ellis, Sinfield,
with Millard, Poching, Jones-Buchanan, Scruton probably making up the 17.
Huddersfield’s half back pairing of Thorman and Paul should provide the biggest danger but if McGuire is back to his best as all reports suggest I expect the Rhinos to run out 12 point plus winners.
Get there early to support the Rhinos senior academy kick off their season against their Huddersfield counterparts kick off 12.45pm.
We are Leeds!!!
