icons077e_files/4864-863FALH-msnicons.jpg How is education supposed to make me feel smarter? Besides, every time I learn something new, it pushes some old stuff out of my brain. Remember when I took that home winemaking course, and I forgot how to drive?:icons077e_files/4864-863FALH-msnicons.jpg |

Go give your head a shake will you..............
Given the respective 17s on show from both sides and with the HT score, IMO we did excellent to get within a score with 1 min left.
At HT I was expecting Th`eagles to get 48+
Well done to the lads for battling on after a shocking start, we good have won but I doubt it would`ve been deserved on 80 mins.

| Despite the result I am not too upset.
Full strength would we have won ? We know we would.
Well done Sheffield.
Last 10 minutes atmosphere in the North stand was awesome.
Next season I think we'll be the team to beat.
To everyone of our players thanks lads.
I have never seen a better team spirit in a Leigh side and to Paul Rowley you are a marvel considering were we where last October.
We as fans should be proud.

I hear you are loaning a few players to Wires reserve team next season. Even your team name is starting to disintegrate (swinton lion)

Think you're being hugely disrespectful to Sheffield - let's not forget that Fev have only taken two points from six against them, never mind the tonking they gave Halifax. Sheffield were coming in to the game red hot and we were on our last legs with injured players turning out, players out of position through no choice of their own (or Rowley's), it happens. I'm happy to admit that I was one of the doubters when Rowley was appointed, but if a Challenge Cup quarter final, NRC semi final and a chance of still finishing top on the last day isn't enough to win you over then what is?

| Its Rowleys fault.......
Nicholson at 13, when you have Littler who can play backrow and a winger on the bench, where Maden could have gone centre
Duffy could of played 13 also
Taylor is never a prop, and we had 4 recognised props playing in Thornley, Spencer, Ostick and Gallagher, he got banged about alot
Nicholson should of interchanged at 9 which is his only position
Brierley came on and changed the game, but it was too late
Ridiculous squad selections, is this the sign of an out of depth coach? I think it is.........

| Wouldn't say in the slightest that Thornley and even Gallagher are 'recognised props'. Needs must.

Thornley is a back rower and, until the back end of last season at Swinton, Gallagher hadn't played prop since he was in the academy at Leeds.

| Good season all round - Great if you remember where we were at a year ago!
8 and a half out of 10. Roll on next season - bet Duffy doesn't retire!

I think you'll find that more often than not (including against us in the NRC Final in 2006) that he played at stand off during that period. Aside from the fact that I was having a conversation with him about this very subject earlier this week.
