WTF - 2 Sin bins for AJ.

12-0 up with almost our first two attacks and we looked comfortable at 20 mins then we fell asleep and defensively we were all at sea. To be fair Hull KR got a roll on and we could not get to grips with their off loads, conceding 18 unanswered points. Our kicking game also then fell to pieces.

Second half we were far brighter and I thought Liam Hood was the best player on the park by a country mile, playing long minutes he led us superbly. A great opportunist try , followed by a 1 pointer on top of aggressive defence should have been enough to see us home.

I will say Adam Higson has been in this game a very long time now and he will be fully aware 3 sin bins in his last 2 games are unacceptable. Last week we got away with it, this week we conceded the match winning try with 20 seconds left on his flank he should have been defending. To go away to a SL side and win is a tough ask for any Championship side, to do it 13 v 12 for 20 mins is bordering impossible. So disapointing. The boy will know it though.

As an aside I found myself watching the game with young Hull KR scrum half Mikey Evan's Grandad. A knowledgeable bloke, He was proud as punch of his Grandson's performance and rightly so. He was also very complimentary of Leigh all afternoon, I discovered later he was a big Hull FC fan

Yep, and it worked for them.

Interesting Fax Coach Grix, thought Higson should have been sent off last week !

My buddy sat in the West said the same. I was in the North and following play. But if he cant walk away from it given his experience then he’s no good to us.

Higson can do some good things, but he is only ever a stride away from doing something totally stupid, I called him Calamity Jane for that reason along time ago, pity is he has not improved with age it is looking like he has got worse.
