24-0 up and playing 12 in the second half?

Goodbye top 2. Hello mid table mediocrity!

Shocking. Totally unacceptable how you can lose a 24-0 lead. It's not the first time we've done it though is it?

I seem to remember a 26/28 point lead at Hilton Park being turned round a few years back rich, anyway what did Mr Barlow do?

To clarify the Barlow sending off, he hit Fax player Potts as he was being subbed !!

To loose when we were 24 nil up , against 12 men was abysmal. Take away their 2 tries which so clearly weren't it would have been a more realistic scoreline. Best 40 minutes of the season followed by that???

Leigh taught us a lesson in attacking play. I also suspect the Widnes game caught up with the players in the second half. Nothing left in the tank to snatch the lead back at 24-24 playing the usual Harrison brand of Rugby when playing 13 against 12.

Ref gave Leigh 6 points for the knock-on
Linesman gave Leigh 6 points for the 10 yard forward pass.

Fax gave thousands of free tickets out this weekend to attract new fans, I suspect they won't be back

I'm stunned after that 2nd half.... Sorry but why drop Cowling for Heaton and release Brown when your halves aren't fit....?? Another huge opportunity missed like several were last year.... Harrison not up to it from an health perspective or coaching perspective. That 2nd half was an absolute disgrace.

Given Leigh's recent 4 match performances it was obvious what was coming in that second half. It's hard to take in.

I'm surprised Harrison hasn't rotated Reittie with our current wingers yet.
I was impressed with Holden again when he came on. It would be nice to give him a decent run in the side. Very quick distributor out of dummy half.

I agree with Chris_smith last week brown did ok as did cowling so why drop them? some of karl's team selections this year have been shocking we need to build on last beet but we have gone 2 steps back how longs Johnson out for ?

going ok until leigh started the fighting and it knocked fax right out of their performance.

I still think we are having the wrong sort of fitness coaching if those warm up rituals I see each week are anything to go by. I was doing that type of thing 30 years ago as a player in the 20th century!We constantly run out of steam by the end of the game.
KH also needs some help with backs coaching and selection.Why have we let our only other recognised scrum half go to a main rival on the eve of the most critical game of the season when we have a doubt about the other. 3 hookers in Mennel /Kaye and Holden are not in the same class as Beswick/Penky/and Gleeson- when that tactic did work.
Also Cowling stops anything coming through that centre chanel, gets dropped and we put a player in who was totally skinned for pace every time.
Fair play to Leigh they played us off the park in the 2nd half but we don't help ourselves at times!
I will be at Barrow next week and expect to see a far more professional performance than that against the bottom side club.

In all fairness... You talk about Brown doing ok last week but Mennell was one of our best players today. Lets not do him an injustice in moaning about releasing Brown. He wouldn't have made a blind bit of difference to today's result

I am so so disappointed. 24 up and an extra player on the field and we did nothing to stretch them. Quite the Opposite they did it to us ! Yes from where I was sitting
One of Leigh's try's was so far forward the Leigh player had to stretch his leg out to kick it forward and another one of their tries was a blatant obstruction. But, they played and kept going and we didn't. We should have sown the game up and didn't.
Saxton had good game, in fact most of them did, Leigh just wanted it much more when Barlow was sent off. He is a hot head and it made me smile. A game with 4 sin bins and one sending off, and team coming back from 24 -0 down! A great game for the neutrals (or Leigh fans)! Bring on Barrow

Utterly embarrassing.
