| Quote: maurice "Some forget how many points we scored against SL clubs, how many would we have scored at Leeds without sentiment and if we needed to win?
We have a tackling machine in Stewart with a great brain as a nice extra, Vea Green and Maria are experienced SL forwards with size. Brown and Tonga are two big experienced centres, Higson and Dawson are very competent wingers with good size and physicality, McNally was sorely missed against Leeds and adds so much more to the attack whilst being secure under the high ball. Drinkwater Ridyard and McNally will move the team around the park very well
Then we look at Patterson Hansen Hock Weston Tickle Acton Hopkins plus the quality at 9 in Higham Hood and Pellisier feeding of any QPTB
If we sign Hampshire and bring in another prop and outside back we will be competitive at the minimum, depth without reserves and academies will be a problem but let's hope for a good injury run and an early win'"
Decent post that Mozza.

| As Cokey said, Maurice.
If we get a couple of points from those first four "welcome to SL" matches, Bongser'd be ecstatic not just happy. Come they early in that quartet it will ease nerves both on and off the field and show the rest of the 12 that Leigh haven't built a strong pack just so that it can hold the SL table up.

| home games are the key, we need huge noise to lift the team and with a decent bounce we could be w3L3, or just as easily 0/6. Can't wait

I reckon the noise from the North Stand will be in plentiful supply Mozza, winning or losing.
Be nice if The Library could join in once in a while.

| It's fair to say in my ST spot in the NS you will never hear the west , but when in the West you have great atmosphere so let's just raise the roof to new levels

I suspect you'll do OK but will still struggle to get into the top 8.
Leeds and Hudds will probably be back on form next season. I expect Wakey, Widnes and Salford to be in the bottom 4. That leaves space for one more. Realistically that means yourself or Cas (and maybe Hudds again if they fail to improve as expected).

If you suspect we'll do OK, then finishing in the bottom 4 will not be OK will it.

Of course not, but you have to be realistic. Squeezing into 8th might be the best you can wish for.
