I wont be taking anything for granted against Wakey, yes they are frustratingly inconsistent but they do make life difficult for us whenever we play them and are a very capable team once they get into a roll.

This is the time of year you need to get some momentum - if Leeds have genuine GF aspiration they should be hitting their best form about now. They were excellent against Wigan - bring anything like that form to Wakefield and it will a large win.



Wakefield have conceded 80 points in the last two games - even you said Wakefield look like they have put the cue on the rack - so don't contradict yourself



Most people would agree the standard of the SL is at a low ebb so to suggest otherwise is pushing against the tide.

Wakey do look like they've thrown the towel in in general and can't see them making the top 4 now but wouldn't go as far as to say they couldn't put in a good performance against us. If they've got another good showing in them in the remaining games it'll likely be against us or Cas at their place.



This season has shown anybody can beat anybody and performances can vary wildly from week to week.



You have to be in good form and momentum for the playoffs but still several games before then, don't want to peak too early.

Irrespective of what we did v Wigan & Wakeys last 2 scores we of all Teams should know nothing is a given.

Sal 3 times this year we've been well beaten by a Team at the bottom of the SL.

Wakey deserve credit for their place in the top 6 & only a few weeks ago we only beat them by 2pts.

If anybody can beat anybody in the comp this season someone should tell the Leeds players before their 4th and hopefully 5th meeting with Castleford this year.

I think he lives in Pontefract so not far away

A couple of weeks ago it sounded like the Wigan game or this one was a possibility. That might've been with the idea of getting some game time in before Wembley if we got there, now that we aren't maybe they'll give him some more time.

If all 100% fit in respect of Burrow and Delaney in particular it could be that Lilley and Keinhorst miss out which is unfair on JK but we might need more size in Garbutt and Mullalley on the bench for this one.

I personally prefer Keinhorst to Sutcliffe but think Sutcliffe will keep his place.

Only Galloway & Ferres unavailable. It seems that we're getting bodies back for the business end of the season which can only be beneficial.

We should not take Wakefield lightly. If the team has SP's attitude we're heading for a fall.

Could rotate Ablett out this week as he's struggled a bit and didn't get the week off away at Wigan. If Burrow is ready to go then bring him in but don't take any risks with him.
