| Quote: BuckleyStreetWire "I thought we were absolutely awful for pretty much the whole of the first half. Then excellent for 25 minutes to start the second half then took our foot off the gas for the last 15.
I thought Leigh scored some very high quality tries but outside those flashes were a poor side. Couldn't do anything against twelve men for ten minutes where if they were going to win they had to get something going right there and they shrunk under the pressure to do it. Emmit was a loving joke, all he did was flubber around trying to slow the game down to his fat pace.
Leigh looked unfit for a full time team. I think all of their forwards were carrying too much fat. I'm critical of our fitness levels but I thought Leigh looked way off even us in that second half.
Some of our tries were very good too but yet again our precision and cohesion in attack was mostly poor and some of our defending was still very poor.
All that being said, it was a thoroughly entertaining cup tie and you have to remember Leigh are only a Championship side. So for that level they were impressive considering.'"
I thought we were excellent first half,took our foot off the gas and lost concentration for the first 25 mins of the second half,then we came right back into it,and finished strongly .
Not to bad for a team of unfit fat bast*rds!

| Quote: garyhulsefan "The injury he's carrying might be a big factor to be fair, I'm willing to wait until he's had that cleared up before judging him. Thought we went alright today, kicking game was as good as I've seen it this season. Big games from Sims and Currie, special mention for Roy who actually did more than 15 minutes and even more incredibly did pretty well. Thought Hock was going to blow his top towards the end. Can we have a commentator platform in the South Stand for every game? Makes abusing them so much easier.
Glad we got rid of Higham by the way, totally anonymous today.'"
Totally disagree with you there. He did an excellent job as water-carrier, in the hot conditions! Now, had he been able to play in the game, we may have had the luxury of spelling Beswick, instead of asking 80 minutes from him.
By the way, Brad Dwyer's performance at hooker, came as no surprise to me. I've been impressed with him during our meetings with London Broncos this season.
Anyway, good luck in the semis and, hopefully, in the Final.

| Quote: ratticusfinch "Well done kev and well done wire for rolling their sleeves up for change. Sorry if this annoys a few people but I wouldn't be sorry to see ratch leave. Yes he's got the skills but for me he has no position nailed down and as such means we always wedge him in somewhere. His fb defensive play is shocking and we could really do with a specialist back there. Well done Roy today and I thought sims led brilliantly. Leigh are a super league team in all but name.'"
Cheers pal.

Yes you're right, and also Leigh wasn't at their best today. So make of that what you will.

I'd hazard a guess that he was saying that Leigh aren't a decent SL side. Which is unarguable. Neither are Warrington at present, mind.
Leigh did pretty well today, but they're hardly going to tear up SL if they do come up. I hope they earn the chance, they played some impressive stuff, but they look a similar standard to Salford to me.

| Quote: BuckleyStreetWire "Well if you're taking your foot off the gas and losing concentration when you're just 2 points up and only 40 minutes in, you've got more problems than your fitness levels in the pack and letting Big Roy get more than 15 paltry minutes that he normally struggles with in SL with him rolling over everyone who went near him.'"
Nah mate,no problems,just a poor 20 minutes!..it happens
Well see thee in the middle 8's

No you're probably right because we a championship side. However with quality recruitment with the bigger salary cap in SL next year we will rip you to shreds.

I can live with that comparison seeing as Leigh are spending half of what salford are spending
