| Same as in previous week and as has been said, simply not taking our chances. God knows what was going through Tangata's mind when he once again broke through but instead of us scoring a simple try off a 2 on 1 he misses out Johnston and throws a pass to nobody. We didn't lose because of that but it did sum up our season so far. It will stick eventually but again we saw flashes of what we are capable but it seems to me the changes to the team are still taking a while to come off. Every man and his dog knows that Johnston should be at half back and is wasted at FB but RM seems to want to make the Moore and Murrell partnership work, its a really simple change to move Murrell to 13 where we know he is superb and have Jonno and Moore in the halves, this also means Scott can defend in the middle rather than out wide where he has been done for pace a number of times this year.

Fully agree GFB and as I have said before we don't seem to have the size or threat on the bench at the moment.

| These results are unacceptable.
We finnished 6th for god sake in middle 8s leaving 750k to play with
Batley and london were not but yet can field a team to beat us also above us in the league.
What as the money been spent on is the question. Was meant to be new fittness equipment and nutrition but we dont look the fittest of teams.
Big mistake not going fulltime this year and is going to cost us at the end of the season when attendances fall as the product on the field is poor

A very good assessment as always GFB and the same as I saw it today. London played on Muzza's lack of pace out wide and Johno is totally wasted at fullback and no threat to the opposition in that role. RM still tinkering with his run on side and once he gets that right then hopefully things will improve. Our discipline was poor today and we gave London far too much easy possession and territory. Good sides punish you for that and London did just that. Still early days but we need to start winning soon or we will start to lose ground on the top 4.

Exactly this ^
While I am looking forward to our visit to the Shed Stadium next week, it really could go either way.
We are massively wrecked by injuries *especially in the backs* more injuries today & 10/11 players out.
As I have said on our board, 8th now, but I expect that to improve as the season goes on.
Please, turn up in numbers next week, it could be a real humdinger of a game & the atmosphere when our
sides meet is usually electric.
C U there.

Typical self defence mechanism, laugh at someone else, distracts away from your own failings!

Miles will be back very soon at fullback, when he is it will give us a better idea if and how RM intends to fit Johno, Scotty and Gaz in the side.

Maybe a little bit harsh but I can totally see where you are coming from. The way we ended the season and the performances in the middle 8's, are a long way off what we are producing at the moment. We set the bar really high and I expected us to kick on this season instead after only 5 games we will have our work cut out to make the top 4. Again I get what people are saying about it been early days but our problem this season is that its not Leigh and Bradford that are topping the table which will happen by the end of the season. Instead other teams who are in the mix for the other 2 places have set off like a house on fire and we have to hope their performances drop as the season goes on.
It all seems a bit willy nilly at the moment and I know we were crying out for expansive rugby but there has to be a happy medium and at times yesterday some of the offloads were crazy, like we had hardly had the ball and a scrum 10 metres out and Sharp tries to offload the ball in a 3 man tackle when we just needed to do the hard yards, London pick the ball up and score, again summing up our season so far.

I don't think Cokey means anything malicious by it Robin just bad timing banter on the Fax board.
On the Leigh board like we all do he will passionately defend anything related to his club right or wrong, although how anyone knows what is right or wrong at Leigh just now who can say?
That must have been a cracking game against Dewsbury yesterday, I bet the full roller coaster of emotions were on display again.

| We just need to settle down, it's a tough division this year and that will set up whoever makes it in to the Super 8's. We can still get in there we just need to start winning, a lot easier said than done but I'm sure we have the personnel to achieve it.
Not sure what Bracek has done to constantly be left out, he's not going to set the world alight but his solid work allows others to flourish, still not sure about Barber and now without Divo.
How did Bennion go yesterday?
