He didn't do a bad job for you lot in the Middle 8s game at KR last year. Two team warnings in a row and no sin binning.

| I take it the club will want to play this match on the Saturday at 6 pm as we play the previous Easter Monday, and then at St.Helens the following Friday. Will we have problems again with this kick off time with 'Elf and Safety?

If you have to get us to agree to play Saturday then i can't see it happening. We will want as long as possible after the away game in France.

CL is referring to what time kick off is! Should it be on the Saturday..If Saints can do Catalans in and out in a day,what's your issue?

If there is one man in RL who dislikes Leigh, and makes a poor job at covering it up, it is Jamie. A class player in his day, of that there is no doubt. Very successful and rightly so. As a person he is not so good when it comes to the subject of Leigh RL. This all goes back to the Challenge Cup game at Headingley 2-3 years ago when Leeds Rhinos were nearly on the end of a shock defeat in front of their faithful supporters at the hands of Leigh. Following on from the bust-up on the pitch with Matt Sarsfield he had nothing but negative things to say about Leigh. If I remember rightly he slagged us off by saying that we weren't going to win games by fighting. Forget the fact Jamie that it was 12-12 until the 73rd minute and Leigh having 'bombed' a couple of good opportunities at 12-12.
Nowadays, whenever he is asked to comment on Leigh (See the SL Show after the Wigan game a few weeks ago and his response to Tanya Arnold's question, "and what about Leigh?"icon_wink.gif he simply deflects the question and carries on talking about Wigan, something he had been doing for the previous minute of highlights.
The fact that we helped to send HKR into the Championship last year will all add to his dislike.
There is no doubt in my mind that he will relish this tie and want to win this game more than ever. Not just because it's the Challenge Cup or because he wants to see what level HKR are at currently. It will be because it's Leigh. I hope we are fired up for this tie because we will need to be.'"
Hold on I think you've got something on your shoulder! I doubt he gives a shiny one either way about Leigh RLFC and doubt he'll even remember a game from 3 years ago although you still seem bitter about it. No disgrace losing to the eventual winners!

I think Jamie Peacock got drawn into the realms of .."We are SL you can't beat us"...Now being in a different scenario he has to think!

Yes poor pundit in my view as are a number of those used by the BBC. Earl Crabtree was equally poor and suggested that Huddersfield were the better team when we nilled them recently. Similar to Peacock he says Leigh are just aggressive - Noble yesterday gave a more balanced view. Looking forward to HULL KR game they are great supporters and the teams are evenly matched IMO.

The point of my previous post was simply regarding Jamie Peacock's dislike of Leigh Centurions. The reference within that post to your precious Leeds Rhinos was simply to illustrate an example of his dislike. When you read further into that post you will see other examples. In simple terms I am supporting my allegations against him with evidence. Like you I couldn't care less about a game three years ago.
However, if there are any chips on shoulders you need to look at JP himself because he definitely hasn't forgotten Leigh and won't let go until he has beaten us. He's a bitter man. Class as a player but no class as a pundit.

Yes Marksski55 I agree with you here. This was another comment on the SL Show a couple of weeks ago when Eorl was commenting on the highlights of the Leigh v Huddersfield game. He said we were "arrogant" and that we were "puffing our chests out" during the game. To be fair he did say that he wished his own team would do the same. I don't think anyone on this Message board is overly concerned what other teams' fans think about our team. However, I just wish some of the pundits on TV would play fair and simply respect our right to be in SL. I sometimes think that at the moment they just can't accept this fact. Eorl could have said things better, but JP is just ignorant.

Who asked for a comment from Noble? WHERE does he come into this thread?

He(Crabtree ) called us 'cocky and arrogant' I take that as compliment! But to say that the outstanding opening try by Higson was purely down to poor Giants defence was ridiculous.
