| I would echo TV boys comments.
Scoreline flattered Wire who have some great players. I thought our pack was brilliant.
We gifted them at least 3 tries too and when you consider their salary cap compared to ours it was a great performance.
This Leigh side will go well this season.

| I thought we played some nice stuff - our pack was very impressive but they were ruthless when we got tired towards the end.
Thought Hoppy and Briscoe went really well but I am looking forward to see how Nicho develops as his instincts look really good - he always takes a couple of steps from halfback putting uncertainty in the defenders' minds as to will he pass or scoot.
Robbie was the biggest disappointment - why he didn't take the chip though on the full in the 2nd half I don't know!
Also I'm not sure about Ellis at 7 - he looks unfit and kicked poorly.
Nanyn and Maden did a good job defensively on the high profile Wire 3/4 line and Stu Littler looks a class act.
Wire will do very wel this year, they have strength all the way down into the back up players.
All in all an enjoyable rugby fix!

| Very happy with the performance and the way we played , we looked to keep the ball alive when at all possible , against one of the top 3 teams in the country
I don't normally comment on individuals but IMO , our best halfback is the one we have brought in for cover

| Another happy leyther, the biggest respect was that the first Wire team stayed out in the second half.

| Quote wbk666="wbk666"how do you work that out, each key player of warringtons cost almost as much as our whole squad.
Anyone who went to the game will tell our lads played very well and final score does not truly reflect the game.'"
My thoughts exactly. As a Wire fan your lads did you proud, TS kept a pretty much full side out for 80 minutes which you probably weren't expecting, but Leigh were in in for the full 80 minutes and made the game interesting to watch, un like most pre season friendlies.
As I said to FrankB int bus station you've got a formidable squad which I think will go on to do really well this year and I hope to get to as many of your games as I can. Thanks for a good afternoon, good luck for the season and enjoy your rugby league!

Ellis kicked very well against Salford though.
Warrington put our kickers under much more pressure, and adopted a 'dual full back' tactic on defence, with a winger plus Hodgson covering the width of the pitch. (just as they did last year.) That makes it much more difficult to place kicks well.
Just a couple of reasons why they are a top SL outfit - and good to watch, employing a high degree of invention.

| Agreed Alan. Wires tactical awareness was nice to watch. Thats why they pay those players top dollar. When Fred has handed over his video to IM, the game will stand our lads in good stead for the coming season. I was impressed by the way we scrambled back when they broke. Jamie Ellis wasn't at his best today but still not bothered and yes Steve, Govin did make a difference when he came on. He was hungry and wanted work, and made the Wire deffence sit up and take notice.
Our squad will be ok this year wait and see.

| Your guys did pretty well today, far better than last years fixture. As for us, i thought we were very flat with a fair bit to work on. Still 48 point winning margin without getting out of 3rd gear isn't too bad i guess.

| I was greatly impressed with Govin (apart from his final pass of the game) and having said that it was hard to criticise any players performance.
