No Maguire!

Post by Matthew »

At least that's one piece of good news for tomorrow, the rhinos will be without the leading try scorer in superleague!

Great news. Sinfield aint as affective at Stand Off as he is at Loose. That will give us a great chance.

Fantastic news. I am also glad Lee Smith has been cut. I have an inkling they will play Toopi at fullback and keep Walker at centre. Leeds suffer badly IMO when Sinfield is not part of their pack. They are a pretty slow set of forwards without him and are having to play Ali too long. Great offloader but not terribly fit and a lazy defender.

id rather see lee smith play full back because he is shocking there making too many errors and toopi lokks dodgy in centre on his debut.

key to victory is keep burrows quiet

True when Burrow aint quiet he seems to have runners when he goes into his shell nobody want to run off him

Lee Smith has had brilliant game v us whenever he has played. He's actually done more damage than Mather ever did versus us.

To be honest Leeds without McGurie is probably better than Leeds with McGurie, so he scores tries but he never creates anything for himself, there will always be some other player there to take a pass and run. When defences don't allow McGuire any space he panics and is prone to mistakes. Also McGuire can not tackle to save his life but Sinfield can, Leeds poor form is nothing to do with McGuire being injuried as Rob Borrow is their main attacking threat anyway.

Danny McGurie is the most over rated player in super league so don't get your hopes up for nothing.
