| Never seen such a dire performance from a fax side for many years. what was completion rate in first half ? Has to be a record low. Knock on's and penalty gave Leigh unprecedented possession and field position and add to that their forwards dominated ours all game. Hicks was also dire but he did not lose us the game. We have lost a bit of aggression in our pack and need it back for next week. Didn't expect a win there today but nor did i expect that kind of score or performance. Hopefully we can put that right next week we have to or its all over I'm afraid. some players just not cutting it for me....no names but i am sure others feel the same about these players.

| Quote oggy123="oggy123"I thought ref was pretty good. Your first try was a knock on... He let you play him pretty well.. Keeping the ball in the scrum and then us getting pinged for offside! I always expect fax games to big niggly physical games but it just wasn't today! I expect if we play in the 8's you will be a lot better I have no doubt'"
LOL, you are allowed to keep the ball in the scrum if you want, and if the opposition goes into "automatic" mode and assumes it will come straight out then, well, that's a penalty if they move before the ball is out! We all judge refereeing performances in a one-sided fashion, but I still don't think he kept us in it.
The "niggle" started at the Shay with some successful tactics being used by Paul Rowley when you were losing at half-time in 2014. Sam Barlow being one of the main offenders. Later, at the LSV, Dane Manning lost it, taking out Sam and being punished with a 10-match ban. All that is in the past, and we both have different coaches now (which is probably the main reason that it was a pretty clean game today). Fax have zero visits to the disciplinary this season so far.

| Think it was played at a super league pace and he didn't allow you to slow it down! Don't think he was bad at all, one of the best displays I've seen all year be honest! As I've said I think you lot will be a different team again come the 8's

| Also were Moore, Kaye and Boyle rested today? Sounds like we could have done with their size but we are in no different position to before the game, we need to win 2 games but a win next week may be enough if London beat Batley. Time will tell but let's hope that's a bad game out of the way and we carry on as we have been the last couple of weeks.

BIJ I ws very disappointed with Fax today ,I was with a few Fax fans before the game ,and they genuinely expected Fax to win today,Our pack was very good today and look at the players we had on the bench the difference in the quality was there for all to see.Tangata and Calahane might have been your stand out forwards this season , but we bossed then throughout the game, for me we could and should have put 70 past you today, the gulf was that big, however I will be at the Shay on Sunday , good luck.

| Up there with the Swinton and Haven performances that if not a little worse. End of the day though nothing has changed and we probably didnt expect to win at Leigh so we still need to win our last 2 games. If anything results went our way with Fev winning giving us at least a bit of hope if we were to lose one of our last 2. Reality is a win against Fev and a Batley loss to London sees us in the 4.
I thought Leigh were very good today but if we cough that sort of possession up against anyone in this league we would struggle to win, its just today we did it against the best team in the league and that will always result in a hammering.

Boyle was already out with hamstring injury. Ben Kaye got injured this week in training.Not sure on Richard Moore looked good last week. Maybe RM prefered Bennion instead? Other thread says he is off to Batley next season. We needed some grunt up front today for sure.

| Could hardly hear what was going on on the Mixrl thing but from what bits did come through Fax were poor with the ball and coughed up too much possession and Leigh were stronger, faster and much the better side.
Fev are firmly back in the mix with a thumping win over Batley today so we will have to be back to our best for next week, not only for the points but if we lose RFF will be all over us like a rash
Only joking Robin.
