The crowd wasnt appalling, it was reasonable
Leeds werent appalling, they were outplayed for large parts of the match , a bit more composure and leadership with 8 minutes left and you would have lost
What about your forecast of a ' Walkover ' ?

Leigh were out on their feet and despite a 7 minute spell, when on the back of a string of penalties they scored twice, they were kept entirely scoreless. For long periods they struggles to get out of their half.
The game was reffed at a championship pace, with a championship ten, We didnt adjust. Leeds gave away 4 penalties (even though the obstruction rule is interpreted terribly at the moment) through obstruction and 3 times threw the ball to Kallum Watkins feet, our 2nd phase play was none-existent even through we made probably 5/6 clear line breaks. Sutcliffe showed his inexperience, stopped play every time it got to him.
If we play like that against Huddersfield, they will put 40 on us. By far our worst performance of the season.

Better to keep silent and be thought a fool than open your mouth and remove all doubt.
Can you not, for once, give Leigh some credit and say a magnanimous word in victory?
What a graceless, mealy-mouthed berk.

| Smokey, what a complete load of bollox
A Championship 10 ? ,you mean an actual real 10 metres
If you give away penalties it means you are doing things wrong you muppet, usually because of pressure from the opposition
You said a ' walkover ' ,in the end you were lucky not to lose ,you have some complete morons in those shirts in Hardacre,Delaney and Bailey, Jamie Peacock confirmed his retirement last night, and apparently some morons in the south stand as well with issues after the game
Either way, I'll leave it now, no point discussing anything with somebody as thick as you

No, Leigh are an RL team they arent children, this isnt sports day. They dont need kid gloves. We dont all get a medal.
We were appalling. If anyone thinks Brian Mac welcomed the lads into the changing rooms with a pat on the back and "good win lads, more of the same next week" then it must be the first game they have ever watched. There will be 12/13 of that squad getting a kick up the ar5e in training this week.

Yes, you give away penalties because you do things wrong, well done on noticing that. We did things wrong, lots of things wrong. When you do lots of things wrong, you have done things poorly.
When a team gives away lots of penalties, drop lots of ball under no real pressure, when their structures fall apart, when they give away ball in their own half by managing to get things as basic as passing from dummy half or kicking off wrong. That team hasnt played very well.

| Did the way Leigh played and controlled parts of the game and pressured Leeds contribute to Leeds making poor decisions and errors?

Leigh didnt make leeds give away 4 penalties for obstruction, they didnt make leeds throw the ball at Watkins feet, they didnt make Leeds forget to play with any 2nd phase at all, they didnt make Sutcliffe decide to dummy and take the tackle every time he got the ball, They didnt make Brett Delany forget how to pass (i dont think he has every learned)
You can look back at the Leeds board about their performances over the last few weeks and the issues apparent against Leigh were apparent against Wigan, Warrington, Hull and even as far back as Cas. The lack of speed in the middle, the lack of any 2nd phase play, the basic errors, the lack of structure.
If this were two SL sides then people would be highlighting it as why we dont beat the aussies etc etc. It was an exciting game, good entertainment. It wasnt high quality.

They have an awful side at the moment. I dont think anyone is saying any different.
