Quote: charlie caroli "As you so rightly say this has been the BEST finale to a season in years , far far better than the play off system, we at Leigh knew the rules and accepted them it's no use complaining now because results have been what we expected ,for me these 8s have been a learning curve, before we started a game a fair few Leigh fans were saying MOST of our current Squad were good enough for SL standard and how we might go through the 8's unbeaten,well it's been a severe wake up call, a good percentage of our Squad are not up to the week in week out SL challenge which is why Derek feels the need to Strengthen next year.As for the Conspiracy Theory by the RFL ,I think not .'"
Its been brilliant season thus far and whilst the results in the 8's haven't been what we'd have wanted I'd take this over the previous 10 or 11 seasons of closed shop RL.
