Send Home the Clowns

Opener |
The Rhinos turned it around after a very tight first half to massacre the clowns at Headingley in Round five. The comprehensive nature of the second half performance was very sweet indeed and despite a number of key players missing through injury we showed what a poor side the visitors are this season.

Davids MoM |
by David Bywater
After a couple of season off, we've once again asked Davidbyw to cast his eye over the Rhinos performances of the weekend and pass numerical judgement on the players.
Bound to be controversial, and to spark debate on the message boards, we'll keep tabs over the season and see if Davids appraisal of player of the season tallies with your Man-of-the-match votes.

Court Jesters a Laughing Stock

Two Tries |
It was a Rhinos side peppered with changes that entered onto the 'Turnip Field' in the 'Stadium of Broken Clocks'.
Kirke, Delaney, Sinfield, Ablett and Donald, all names you'd expect in the seventeen and all missing from a makeshift side stuck together to take on one of the seasons struggling sides, the Harlequins.
Leeds needed to put a run of poor form behind them and regain some much needed confidence ahead of the long campaign ahead while Brian McDermotts men were justhoping not to be on the end of the Rhinos WCC backlash.

After the Storm

Big Mc |
Are Leeds Rhinos a club in crisis?
An indifferent start to Superleague XV; the loss of Sinfield, Donald and Ablett through injury; Keith Senior charged by the RFL for comments in losing the World Club Challenge to fourteen man Melbourne Storm; and a Headingley pitch which is really only fit for planting turnips.
Tonight the Champions have to put all of that behind them and start the long journey to Old Trafford with a win over Brian McDermotts struggling Harlequins.

This week Damo looks behind the scenes and applauds the 'Leeds Rugby Foundation'.

No Love Lost |
The game that the Rhinos had been building for turned out to be a cracker, but one from which we came away with nothing.
Aussie champs the Melbourne Storm took their time, especially at the tackle, and ran out by eight point winners in a game where Leeds lost more by indiscipline than by poor play.
Leeds need to put this behind them and get on with the important business of the season, a fourth Old Trafford win.

Rhinos Downed by Storm

100%er |
The shocking weather forcast for tonights World Club Challenge didn't materialise with light rain greeting the player onto the pitch. One storm hadn't materialised and the twenty-five thousand plus Rhinos supporters jammed into the 'limited leg room' seating at Elland Road hoped that the storm wearing purple and white would also be a damp squib.
It was north versus south as the champions came face to face with only one side going to take home the silverware.

Once again the bookie was the only beneficiary last week with the Tigers and Hull FC both letting us down and both on the end of shock results.
This week sees the big one as the Rhinos take on the Storm in the World Club Challenge but there are plenty of other fixtures to get our teeth into.
