Higham, Harrison Hansen, Hock to name a few are ultimate professionals, playing the best rugby of their careers and appear to be enjoying themselves. Very impressed with Mitch Brown, Pelisier, Green and Crooks....Derek and the team have made some great signings and we will shock a few teams this year.

Spot on, it Dawson had attempted to dive in the far corner and then Drinkwater had not spilled his grubber at the line with Harrison Hansen free at his side we could have been 12.0 up. Glenn Stewart was also held just short in the opening exchanges.

Now do not get me wrong, the best team clearly won without a shadow of a doubt but those early 'scores' could have placed a different perplextion on the eventual scoreline.

Harold - I'm honestly not having a go but I reckon we would have definitely won by a bigger margin had Glenn Stewart played against Saints on Friday.

A little bit early for a "What a Team" thread for me .....

Now, if it had been entitled "What a team [iSpirit[/i" then I would have agreed.

Don't get me wrong, I think we have a good team with some excellent players, lots of experience & obviously a good bond, I just feel that a couple of quality signings will take us to top 8 & avoid the dreaded Q8's.

The most positive thing for me is that the spine of the team are starting to really click, 1, 6, 7, 9 + H.H & Corey are doing a magnificent job.
I always knew *& said so often* that Ben Reynolds would be a future star for Leigh & Drinky too, they really look to have an understanding now.

Elloi & M.H are having fun in the ruck at PTB & Elloi could be an inspired signing.

Mitch Brown is showing why he was a Cronulla F.B & if he stays fit then.I don't see Greg Mc getting back in.

Injuries are the biggest worry ATM for me, just wish we had a bit more depth & I hope we can strengthen later in the season before the 8's are upon us. If we don't sustain any further major injuries & get everyone back & fit for the 8's then I don't fear the drop at all.

Oh & did I mention that Atalea Vea is the best 2nd row in RL & should be Knighted for his services to Leigh Centurions ? .....
