We were very poor in the final 30 minutes of the game. We deserved to lose and once again poor discipline cost us. Injuries and poor discipline have let us down throughout the season and this game turned into a game too far for some of our players.
Discipline is something that needs attention from this point onwards.
Good luck to Catalans in SL 2018.

Without the concept, the season would be longer than 23 rounds, and ultimately it's who finishes 12th (ie, when you consider there are 11 teams above the MPG) and 13th after 30 rounds. Leigh would have been relegated after a 30 round season anyway. It gives the relegated team a second chance.

I do think they should go to bottom 6 and top 2 of Championship, as too many lightweight sides in there, but maybe have it as pure relegation for the bottom two rather than the stress of it all one game.

I do think the clubs should think of it as a second chance to avoid what they have already achieved, the relegation spot, rather than the current ethos, but hope it goes okay next year. Personally, I can see you swapping with Salford with Marwan's money going.

Without wishing to sound condescending I think Leigh should take a good look at how we, Hull Kr, reacted after the MPG last year. You have a passionate chairman and a good support base. Use this opportunity to reshape the club and come back stronger. We have shown it is possible, good luck for next season.

Only the fans and clubs involved in this game know how truly horrible this is. It's not like football, the whole league structure isn't full time. To decide things on one game and then literally have people unemployed on the outcome is crazy. I experienced it last year so know how you feel. I also thought that was us done for super league but we've also proved you can get back!

The title of this thread say's it all.

Before anyone starts coming on here having their 2 penneth worth. YES, We are not good enough for SL, so what happens now is that we have to regather and put ourselves in a position so that we can bounce back and prove that we CAN/WILL challenge for a spot at the top table. Can we? Time will tell.

I'm not sure it's as simple as that. But it changes nothing now the dust settles. Leigh hammered Cats away.But today's performance was similar to the Widnes game in that as a neutral I was left scratching my head how a team can be so good one week then look clueless week after? The foundations at Leigh are strong and they will be back, that's my last comment on here til next term . Good luck lads

Well said craig. I have the most utter most respect for your post. Good man.

Respect to Leigh, enjoyed see in you at Broncos last week. The MPG is blx. I have always said the optimum league structure for rugby league, a game that needs to harness its roots but at the same time recognise it needs to grow to survive, has now to expand the elite level, maintain the dream for clubs outside the top level, facilitate the best crowds (derbies), revenue, attractiveness to sponsorship. The only way is by 2 largely ‘geographic’ conferences of 8 teams. Teams play their own conference home and away, the other conference home or away, one of which is Magic. Conferences play offs and a GF. Bottom of each conf play off to play top of Championship for promo/releg. 21 games, play offs, leaves for restructured Challenge Cup (final in May) and Conference ‘State’ of Origin. The first conferences formed at the end of next season, 12 SL teams plus top 4 in Championship (invited). No salary cap, no overseas limit. Minimum criteria to be reviewed. The conferences could look like 1) Leigh Wigan Warrington St Helens Widnes Salford Toulouse Catalans 2) Leeds Hull Hull KR Castleford Wakefield Huddersfield Toronto London (or Fax or Fev or Barrow, .......) - what’s not to like and we do away with this stupid MPG.

And Catalan have ? You complete tool???

Well, I didn't actually see any Sheffield fans at Toulouse this afternoon so what do they actually bring to the game ?
Or is that different ?

They brought some very enthusiastic fans to Warrington.

Absolute joke of a game to decide the up and down, good luck to you guys in the future
