| Quote: Him "Turning point for me was Kirmond being sin binned. Wakefield lost their way after that. Whilst you have to stand up to the aggression from Leigh, I have no idea what Kirmond was doing.'"
Kirmond threw 3 punches in the tackle & started the niggle, he was even useless at that & was flapping like a school girl.
He threw another later on at Oli Wilkes behind the sticks & missed again.
It's all there plain as day on TV. |

| Quote: Wilde 3 "In the 2nd half, i didnt like all the shots from a 3rd or 4th man into the tackle who was hitting the guys in the back when the tackle was virtually complete - think Simon was the victim of one of those'"
But did you like the 'air' punches from Kirmond on Kay in the tackle, or did you prefer the two head shots on Pownall by the Wakey winger & Ali Lauatiti followed up with a neck grapple by the ginger whinger Chris Riley ?
As a team Leigh lack size, but have a pack mentality & if they receive niggle they give it back but twice as hard, those lads would practically die for each other it seems.
Nothing wrong in that, they just do it better & tougher. |

How old is Armstrong, now? |

Leigh only had to defend one set in the second half before scoring 2 tries. Two of those tackles were 3 man tackles. If that's throwing you off your game then there are serious problems |

| Quote: The Devil's Advocate "Well played Leigh.
In a strangely ironic way they may well have turned Trinity's fortunes around.
Time for Wakey's annual 7 game winning streak 
John Kear to return?
Wakey have a good squad, just a case if the new coach can get them off the ground and get some wins on the board and get some confidence in the players.

Indeed, if they can get someone in place in the next couple of weeks, they have plenty of games to sort out their structures prior to the middle eight bun fight.

Koukash has been following Armstrong on Twitter for the last few weeks now. He is also promising to sign young British players. 2 + 2 =.... |

Why would Armstrong join a smaller club like Salford? I am sure the lad has ambition.

He’s currently on a 2yr deal, yeah I know that don’t necessarily mean much, but Tom joined Leigh as a part time player, as for some reason he couldn’t combine his uni studies and Full time Pro rugby at Saints.
When Leigh went full time, they offered Tom a FT contract that allowed him to continue with his education, for which he’s just won an award for combining the two.

Hopefully both appreciate what each has done for one another and we (Leigh) mange to keep him for a few more seasons. |
