So to some up.

Paul Rowly's self declared tactics at the Shay when Leigh were losing had nothing to do with the build up of the aggressive "this is how Leigh will play the game when it suits us" message.

Sam Barlow getting sent off and after being sent off can head butt another player and bump into and have words with the coaching staff off camera as he is leaving the field.

Leigh can claim tackles from behind, fractured skull and internal bleeding both of which were completely false.

Come on here and state Halifax are the skum of rugby league, it's all their fault, and hand out insults and derogatory comments on the Fax, BOD, coach, players and supporters.

I haven't seen this side to Leigh before but now it's in the open we all know where we stand.

Again, it's not only about Manning and Barlow, the stage was set by others who are just as much responsible for their actions in the build up and when it goes wrong they blame everyone else.

We had proof to back up what Manning did if you have then Sam would have been still banned !!!!

I posted what Paul Rowley said in the post match interview ask Harrison he was there

And now I believe the cheeky sods are appealing Manning's ban, hope it's increased and Halifax get fined for time wasting

Dane Manning, never heard of him till the Sam Barlow incident, is that because he is a rubbish player....me thinks so.

Blimey, what a well thought out post, I bet that really taxed the brain.

Or because you're a no mark and basically lack general knowledge about Rugby League.

Clever one that.

So perhaps if Rowley apologised for his hysteria you would do the same.
I do think that the topic was inflamed by you and as a result many of your no marks like Peewap come on and call us "the scum of
Rugby League"

Just as a point of interest did Barlow play today and if not how long would you expect a player with his sort of injury to be out of action?

In answer to your first question no he didn't play. As far as the second question I have no idea.

I chatted with Sam yesterday and he said he should be back next week.

I think everyone (Leigh & Fax fans) need to take a step back and review without bias which is pretty difficult for most people.

Both sets of fans have numpties and wind up merchants so lets not tarnish an entire club by this handful of people.

Not sure why people are asking Dick Jones/Rowley to apologise for saying he had a SUSPECTED fractured skull and bleeding, at the point that comment was made then that would have been the doctors reason for sending Barlow in an ambulance for a brain scan. I seriously doubt they would do that otherwise! Thankfully that turned out to not be the case.

All teams have/have had players with a nasty side to their game Barlow & Manning included and incidents such as this (not seen the one at the Shay) fall into that bracket and most sensible people would not defend them.
