too many Leigh players were bad today.

Some of em were worse than that Shocking performance.

London were the better team & deserved the win, look a different team to the one we played at the start of the season at the LSV, think that's the best Championship opposition we've come up against.
First 20 min we just didn't seem to have a plan, kept passing to players stood still seemingly unsure what to do next. Eventually when Tom Spencer came on and started running at them with the ball we started to get somewhere but by then we were chasing the game against a very good team who'd got too big a lead. We were slowly getting back into it but that lucky charge down try sealed it (lucky bounce but still got to be quick & observant to score them so credit to London) had to try to force it as time was running out which resulted in some errors, understandable really. A few strange decisions though, on such a short pitch why no Fui? One of his trademark 10 m drives in the build up could be the difference between getting over the try line and not. Why when London seemed to be making ground so much easier than us weren't we kicking penalties as far down the field into touch as possible? Especially on such a short pitch, get a penalty & you can be in a real attacking position.
Still well done lads, broken the club record for consecutive wins, real big achievement, in the history books now.

We struggle on tight pitches, we have Bradford Batley Workington away, Hunslet Sheffield Dewsbury Doncaster Fev at Home plus a CC QF. Our problem will be fitting the games in and hitting the 8's fresh as we have 2 midweek games to play in July.

I think we will lose 3 more in finishing second, but hit the 8's strong.

Not a chance we will lose 3 more Mo.

Any stattos out there tell me have we ever won in London? I'm talking about modern times since Fulham formed mid 70's, not the pre-war London setups.

I'm talking as somebody who was at Craven Cottage in our championship year of 1982 when they beat us 11-10. We only lost five in total that season and Fulham got relegated!!!

Drove there and back in the day - not a great day out.

Batley play London on Weds evening so roll on Sunday......

Ive said before that I do not think your pack is all its made out to be and that may be why you struggle a bit more on tight pitches. You have the best backs in the league by far but if your pack does not get on top then its always going to be a struggle. Personally I think thats why Fax did so well against you at the LSV. I was only kidding earlier in the season when I said if you had Fax's pack you would pee this league. Im not now.




Agreed, apart from the obvious one only Sheffield should be capable of getting anywhere near you.

We need people to start noticing us again for all the right reasons. We need to be ruthless and professional like the Bulls appear to be now, and I know I will get stick for this but personally I am sick of watching 40 minute performances.

Just very sloppy for me.We need to learn when to respect the ball,play the sets out when required. Ball was getting to much air in this one and not sticking but we didn't go back to basics,we still continued trying the impossible ball.

We were our own worse enemy,all credit to the Broncos they sat and watched us making it for them.Hopefully we learn,take something from it and move on.

I remember us beating Leeds in London in the early 70's Drove there and back in the day - a great day out.

27 wins on the bounce is an incredible feat (and even more-so with a **** pack!) and when the dust settles I believe more people will appreciate the history-making achievement.

Yesterday London saw their chance and had enough about them - being a much improved side - to take it.

Leigh just couldn't quite get themselves up to the levels that we've seen from them over the past months.


Well played, Leyth!!!!! We're proud of you
