It will be your cup final next week, lose that and you can pack your bags and get off early on your jollies.

Go forth & multiply Mookachaka...
You're not a Leigh fan & just like Thrush...

| Quote: Gadger "How many tires did you guys have disallowed? At least 2 of those I thought were tries, I was stood in that corner. Those are awarded and half time is much closer.
Still think our fitness and overall game management sees us through, but the score flatteted us slightly.
Salary cap gives massive advantage needs looking at for next season
Great following as expected, all stayed til the end, respect. Made up with out victory was very worried pre match.
Best of luck for the rest of the qualifiers'"
Think the only one that could have gone either way was the no-try in the corner. Looking at the replays it could have gone 50-50 if it was a video ref decision. Full speed it looked bounced though. Forward calls, meh. Sometimes you get them sometimes you don't, whether they are or not. Every team suffers from this. If the game was closer then these incidents become more prevalent. Salford scoring freely was Leigh's problem, rather than what-ifs.

Not seen the replays, the one in the corner looked a try, the one breirley got close to from the kick looked close. Still tho j we deserved the win.
Also not sure about out disallowed try at the other end couldnt see

| Well I'm feeling pretty upbeat. It was'nt our best performance by a mile but we did show that we can open up SL sides quite easily and score. No kicking game again today for me and defence was by far our worst of the season. At least we out sung them though. North stand take a bow again you were excellent. Todays crowd was 1000 more than last week. Says bundles about both last weeks following.

| Think the way we are playing at the moment, Bradford or Halifax will beat us. Even when we played Warrington away in the cup, we gave them a game. But Salford (who were in botom 4 for a resaon) beat us very easily today. If we don't beat Wakefield next week, can't see us finishing in the top 5.

We're an inconsistent team. We can play awful, but we can also play well.
We're still a team that went unbeaten against Catalan and Wakefield, beat both Hull sides, Widnes, Huddersfield and Wigan this year. So regardless of our finishing position, we're no pushovers. I think you'll need to play better against Wakey who are much improved. If you turn-up thinking that it's a certain two points they'll win. Will be a nervy day for sure.

| As long as the SL clubs keep beating the champ clubs it won't be over next week if we lose. However lose to a champ side and we are gone. The aim was SL, its moved that little bit further away these last two weeks. For what its worth after the 2nd half last week I thought we would get tatered today, but we are more than capable of beating Wakey. Salford are a far better team than 11th place suggests. Beat the champ clubs and hopefully Widnes will already be up before our game against them. I really hope it doesn't come down to points difference.

| Quote: Michael_Ward "We didn't match Salford physically. Surprising?
Salford received 1.8m TVs funding v Leigh's £0.5m. Salford posted a £5m loss. We probably haven't turned over £5m.
But this one is the killer - we've been playing championship level opposition all season. How can we condition our players mentally or physically for the step up?'"
Yes Salford got £1.8 million and Leigh got £0.5 million. The clubs lower down the Championship only got £150k max and you have the cheek to complain about having to play Championship teams all season and being unable to condition your players!!! Incredible.

Yep 44 points against SL opposition means you can score quite easily, the object of the exercise though is to score more than your opponents, unfortunately you've shipped in almost twice as many (82 points) as you have scored, the one comfort you can take from that though is that if you don't redress the balance, you will probably out sing the visiting teams in the championship next season with the support you enjoy.

Quite so, but then again win or lose people can pack their bags as there is then a week break for the Cup Final.

| I stated before the game started that a Leigh loss would not be the end of the World , well it's not our game next week most certainly will define what happens for our SL ambitions,to be honest ,RangI Chase ripped us apart today we allowed him to much space,not much went right for us and in parts we looked decent,however in my opinion a couple of our players are just not SL standard but that's life,at times our defence looked very brittle,I just hope the points difference doesn't come back to haunt us.
Next week is the acid test a MUST win game,maybe tinker with the line up, I thought Higham and Barlow looked good, I wish Ryan B would attack the line more often,but this game is gone now ,we move on to Saturday,hopefully with a positive attitude, Cmon you Leythers,the support today was great.

Well playing in the Qualifiers will help us immensely.......
We've come a long way........ we're not far off, we just need to improve our tactics and we'll be right!
