| Last time we played Leigh at home we only just lost in the cup. However since then, they have added some real talent like Ferguson, Sa’u etc.
I’m not expecting a win of course. But what I do want to see is the lads do their best. If they do that and we lose by 30 then I’ll be alright.
Saying that, in attack, I’d like to see us try keep them on their toes. More grubbers to create pressure etc.

| Must say these sort of games don't have great appeal as it would take an almighty upset for us to win.
That said, Batley showed what is possible. Must say that although I'm no lover of Den Perry (Derek) at Leigh I would laugh if they went up and Fev didn't. I detect a fair bit more humility from some Leigh fans in comparison with some Fev fans this season (albeit mainly on TRL.com)

Do you mean Inu ? Junior Sa'u has signed for Keighley.

| Thank goodness we kept them to "only" 22 points in the first half. It should have been far more. They're much faster than us, their forwards are attacking together, and every time they get into our 20 they look like scoring.
We're doing the usual - plodding middle attacks, looking flat in defence, boringly predictable last plays, no pressure, and when we do get over their line we drop the ball!
On top of all this, the "crowd" looks very sp for a match against the top of the league.

You would think people didn’t want to watch us get a spanking

| Gave this one a swerve as I felt that we could potentially be on the end of a battering. Sounds like a lot of other people did too.
It seems that our forwards immobility was exposed big time according to some on social media. Leigh appear to be hitting some fine form as of late.

| I think the crowd was that sp because we were playing top of the league. Only us sadomasochists turned out today knowing what would happen.
The difference between the sides was clear to see in ever possible way. They cut through us in defence, kept us to 15/20 metres gained on multiple sets and were much stronger and quicker in all departments.
A showcase of the haves vs the have nots.

| Fans who I class as true supporters go to every game even if its win, lose, or draw.
That's why teams struggle when they start losing.
Fans drop off and clubs struggle to pay wages.
Get behind your team

| To be fair I own up to my mistakes, I meant Sa’u, but obviously he has gone to Keighley. Yes Inu had joined.
I understand why fans are disillusioned. I really do. However, when walking away from the ground and supporters are saying it’s a disgrace. Need to have a word. It’s professionals against semi pros out there. Their middles simply tired us out and barged over. When there’s full time training involved. It’s bloody hard. This side had practically 70% NRL/SL experience if not 100%.
Anyway, I thought DFJ did okay considering I thought he was going to get hammered at first. Kibula had his best game, maiy defensivley. Hallas ran his blood to water. And I thought Flanagan tried to get under their skin a touch. All in all, better than I expected but still not particularly great.

Pollsters doing Excellent job - say recent polls.: |
|
| Butler dropping out in warmup disrupted things a bit which won’t have helped. Because we brought Burton in to replace him, losing a decent middle player and replacing him with a back and then we got battered down the middle.
I’m trying to get my head around what the ref was doing. Refs don’t go on the pitch to have a bad game. I can only think it was his definition of a dominant tackle which stuffed us, as it became self fulfilling. Leigh got a dominant tackle, so the ref let them lie on for a couple more seconds than he let us. But that just means their line was set faster and they had a much better chance of another dominant tackle. On the other hand, the ref limited our time we could lie on and so limited our defensive line being set etc etc.
