| Quote Vespid_Wire="Vespid_Wire"I'm sorry but this is all nonsense
We can all sit around calling Leigh thugs when they play like this against all of the SL teams. But the fact is they won't.
They were relatively clean against Wakefield and seemed to be on the back foot until a spark in the second half that saw Wakey crumble like they have done every game since round 2.
When they're up against SL sides every week they'll be unable to play the way they do currently and will adopt different tactics as their current tactics won't work for them in SL imo.'"
I think this proves a point. When Leigh play SL opposition we play more rugby and get involved in less scrapping. That's because the game is played quicker than in the championship.
If we are allowed to play the ball quickly we will surprise a few. We won't get into the top 8 for a couple of seasons but we should be able to hold our own in the middle 8's and build from there |

To be honest in the games i've seen of them i've actually quite liked watching Leigh, fast skilful rugby with a bit of an edge to it and the possibility of a bit of rough stuff, which i quite like. Compared to the almost sanitised to a walk of Super League every week.
They're obviously hard to beat and the niggle and rough stuff adds to that as the opposition will get wound up !
Gareth Hock is a complete and utter Kn)b though and will never change, i feel sorry for the fans of any club who sign him !

I think Leigh fans are slowing coming to the realisation that the majority of Salford posters were correct in their views when he left us to join them. Adds absolutely nothing to the team and is more likely to be a liability than a game winner. Unfortunately the delusions of grandeur that he was still this world class back-rower that "on his day" was up there with the best in the world are gradually evaporating.
They didn't need him in the first place and they still don't now.

I'm fine with that, but Sunday's game was too much. We had 5 scraps in the first 25 minutes!
You know there's a problem when even Barrie Mc is getting bored of seeing the players scrapping. |

You don't. But stop trying to be clever, he was referring to the Top 8, which unbelievably the RFL have ensured Leigh cannot do until they are promoted. |

| Quote Him="Him"There's nothing wrong with a bit of biff. But this isn't biff. This is just pushing every rule to the limit and beyond. Be it offside, holding down, interference and niggly shots, they should be penalised.
It's not like they're going out and seriously injuring players but it's niggly and against the rules and so should be penalised. The fact that it's not penalised often enough is what leads to Leigh continuing to do it and opposition teams getting frustrated. The conduct of the coach and other club officials also doesn't help Leigh's cause.
Let's be clear, this isn't biff. It's just cheating.
Most people want to see free flowing rugby on the back of tough runs and solid defence, not on the back of who can hold down or niggle the best. That's the worst of our game and is what puts people off the sport at both pro and amateur level.'"
You aren't half posting some sheeite these days, there's that much buzzcox in that post they must be dragging along the floor |
