So, we are now 2 games behind everyone else but only 4 points behind the leaders. We come into this game (hopefully) with 13 days rest and more than likely, 17 players wanting to get their hands on the ball. Bradford are playing well in patches this year, but have struggled so far to put any sort of run together. They arent looking bad, but I think they are just missing something. What it is, I cant tell you, but its stopping them being a good team at the moment.

Leeds on the other hand, come off of a good win against Wigan. Our defence, once again won us the game, as it did against St Helens, but I have a feeling things might click in attack for this one. If it does, we could win by a big margin. If we continue to make errors though it could be a close one. I expect us to win though either way, and after 13 days off I would be disappointed if we didnt come out firing.

Leeds by 14

Heard from a couple of different folk today that Zac might be back for this one.

He's still got another week according to his twitter

Long range forecast for Thursday isn't pleasant

We have under soil heating so the ground staff can work on the surrounding areas more.

Let's just cross our fingers. I want to see a game!

We've not had it as comfortable against Bradford in the the last few few seasons as the league table might suggest, it's been closer than some of the games when they were part of the 'Big 4'. If we were at Odsal I might expect a tricky game but at home with the extra rest think we should be ok.

Wouldn't be suprised to see a close scoreline at half-time but judging by their game against Catalans we might pull a few scores clear in the final 20 mins.

Leeds by around 16 pts

If we have to arrange another game for later in the season we'll be properly f**ked!

Some light sleet or snow showers during the week, but daytime temperatures above freezing so there should be some thawing over the week.

Pitch, stadium and surrounding areas should be fine for Thursday

Only problem now is Bradford getting back from Spain/France in time lol



Leeds not only run the RFL and the match officials department, but ATC at LBA now

Some of the tweets related to today's postponement have been classic, @RLmeltdown has had me laughing all day.

On the game, hopefully the weather won't play into it much but I still see us winning by 10-18

And it's not just the Bradford fans, some Cas fans think it's a conspiracy by Wakey with the two due to meet this week as well.
