Saw JT after the game and he seemed ok

Ah well lets get tom back

I did notice that tom spencer was taking part in the pre match warm up with the rest of the squad.

Don't think you can be slated for that quite honestly.

When we play a team with with quick backs who run at us they excacerbate our defensive frailties.

Quite honestly if I can see that it makes me think. At 22 6 just before HT Barrow got a penalty in our 20 metre area and elected to take the two when our defence had been totally all over the place. From our point of view it was a good job they did.

Big improvement is needed because with no Sam Hopkins we would be lucky to make top 8 the way we are playing atm.

Yeh we have our spells but switching off against the top sides in the Championship will see us tonked . Now if I know that and that we are currently nowhere near Fev and Sheffield Fax and Batley I m sure PR does.

Can he fix it ?

Btw I don't have to name players but there are more than a couple who are not playing well atm.

It was a ridicolously entertaining game of RL for me.

22 unanswered points in Barrow's favour immediately followed by a scoreline of 42 v 2 to Leigh,

Barrow obviously targetted Ryan Duffy in the first 20 mins and it worked well as they continually swept past him and it was no surprise when Rowley took him off early on. Barrow also lost direction when their hooker was injured at the same point.

Credit to the lads for turning round a considerable deficit, I thought both Hopkins and Parker had equal claim to the MOM award.

An attendance of 1200 not so great against the much publicised budget of 1800 paying spectators but given a Thursday night TV slot and bitterly cold baltic conditions, not totally unexpected.

Well I was told there's no room for higson ATM , I'd say there is as more competitions for places means everyone plays for their place, so that should equal all round better performances .

Indeed and on that basis, If I was the coach I would seriously consider dropping Gardener on Good Friday and hand a chance to O'Donnell instead - Higson can earn his shot from the U20's

Barrow scoring 22 points early on was a wake up call for the coaching team, defence and discipline were very poor in the first half; it may help the coach if he watched the game from behind the sticks occasionally. When compared to the Barrow halfbacks Leigh's were pedestrian and predictable, their playmaker going off was significant in the Leigh comeback.

I thought the ref had a good game tonight.

Personally from what I have seen of John, he isn't ready for the first team. Agree that Gardner isn't breaking any glasses but he is the best we have at that postion and after his first 20 mins he didn't do that bad.

Really. Some of the calls were a bit iffy for me and I can't see how some of the blatant forward passes that we made were let go. They gave a forward pass that was perfectly ok then let one go that as a mile forward.

In your opinion of course.
