Blueys Boys to 'Educate' Thackray

Cod Father |
It's just over a month since the Rhinos thrashed the Airlie Birds at Headingley and we are once again the bookies favourite for a big win with the Hull side being given a dozen points start.
The big difference to that game is that this time we are at the KC Stadium, and it is the one game each season for which Hull pull out all the stops.
Add to that the spice of Jamie Thackrays recent outburst and you have the recipe for what could be a cracker on the east coast.

Can we really be at game nineteen? The season feels like it only started a few weeks ago.
This week sees the Rhinos travel to the woeful Hull FC, a strategically placed banana skin if I ever saw one. While Saints travel to Salford, KR are off to the south of France and the Giants entertain the Wildcats.
It's an interesting weekend in prospect.

What a brilliant game, and for the most part a brilliant Rhinos performance that saw us beat the Bulls, make second more secure, and make the Bradford challenge for the play-offs far more difficult.
McNamaras bitching about the Sheriffe try that never was can only be seen as a desperate whine from a man who know that his job is on the line.

Early Brace |
SKY opted not to carry tonights West Yorkshire derby, a game that would normally have seen the terrible twosome of Eddie and Stevo drooling at the prospect. The pundits all feared a Rhinos runaway victory as a Bulls side under the control of Steve McNamara was putting up little competition to any leading side.
Come nine-forty-five this evening they must have been well and truly kicking themselves as nearly eighteen thousand of us had been treated to a 'Thriller' of a game, a true spectacle, one of the matches of the season.

Hanging On |
When we played the Bulls at Odsal at the start of April we were poised for a walkover, but McNamaras Bulls hadn't read the script. What should have been an away 'banker' ended in a 10-6 win for the home side and bragging rights for the ever dimishing numbers of Bulls supporters.
And here we are again though this time at Headingley. The Rhinos hit the straps in London last week and Bradford crashed to Saints. There can surely only be one winner tonight....can't there?

With the exception of the Giants v. Tigers match which none of our pundits got anywhere near, Tad predicted the correct winners in all matches and was within two points of the correct margin too. It is beginning to look like he may well have a time machine, but a slightly imperfect memory.
This weeks the Rhinos take on the Bulls, and six other fixtures.

Rhinos Sweep Aside the 'Quins

If you can forget the opening ten minutes then the Rhinos turned in one of their performances of the season to sweep aside the challenge of the Harlequins.
Eight different scorers and eight goals from captain Kev saw us decimate a side who were supposed to give us a hard game.

Rhinos Turn on the Style

Leeds needed a win to consolidate second, but the Harlequins had their eyes on our spot. The 'Quins had embarrassed us at Headingley earlier in the season and now it was our turn to get one back on them.
Our England stars were back in action and the Burrow, McGuire, Sinfield holy trinity was back functioning for the first time for a month.

All aboard the Rhinos rollercoaster season as we head down to the big smoke to take on the high flying Harlequins in the 'game of the round'.
The final scoreline in last weeks last gasp win over the Giants didn't do justice to our dominance, but in the end I was delighted that we escaped with the two points and moved back up to second in the table. This week we have it all to do again as the Quins look to knock us off our perch.

Eleven more Superleague rounds to go and we're back in second spot after last weeks win over the Giants, against Tads tip.
This week we're off to the Quins with a chance that they could overtake us if they win by sixteen or more points. The other teams close behind us also look like they are having easier games, so at the end of the weekend we could be back to fifth.
