Nobody cared the first time. You're a trier though.

Tell the truth man...Its the colour of the rose that hurts you the most...

just doing my best to keep this thread going, even when our players aren't beating opponents up !!!!

After today this thread should read

Discipline at Sheffield , they were a disgrace today

Or, discipline at Hull. Dirty ankle breaking barstewards.

Yet another team bullying poor little Leigh. I really feel for them; every week teams decide to go completely against their own character and become dirty horrible barstewards without Leigh doing anything at all. If only all other rugby clubs were as calm and colected on the rugby field as Leigh are.

As well as off the field where Derek Beaumont drags Paul Rowley away from taking umbrage with an official while medical staff deal with an injured Leigh player.

They obviously weren't happy with a red card for a one on one dangerous tackle where the Sheffield player was red carded.

A punched Sheffield player was yellow carded.

Another late tackle by a Sheffield player who had played 12 v 13 for over an hour without any other incident is put on report.

All dealt with by the referee and the Leigh fans have the gall to question the actions of another side after what they have been doing,and continue to do.

As trademarked by griff - UnbeLEIGHvable!



3rd yellow card in 2 games for Hock being wonderfully man-managed by Rowley.

Aston sent off after 3 mins for his lovely effort on McNally (who'd already dropped the ball). 5 secs into this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=trE3EeA8U0M That wasn't even the one that put him in the Hospital, that one can be seen at about 5:10. Sheffield 'supposedly' aren't a dirty side but they came out for a fight yesterday from minute one and carried on throughout. That is an attitude we've seen regularly this season and yet it is laughed off with "why do teams only do that when they play Leigh, must be Leighs fault!"

That's a nicely constructed straw-man argument. Well done.

The late closeliner should see Smeaton miss the rest of the season, not seen one as bad as that since the 80's, then it all gets capped off with Hock getting binned with the Sheefield player for not retaliating when punched - classic

I've only read half of this thread, but there is one question I've not seen either raised or answered.

If Leigh are such thugs, why do the fights generally only start once they've taken the lead? Surely you'd expect that earlier in the game?

Thoughts please?

Being a bad winner can wind some teams up. Leigh may not start throwing punches but being a poor winner could get teams backs up.
