There are no easy games in this league, which is how it should be, but in the last week or so we've played Bradford, and Widnes, two tough games, whilst you’ve had the same period of time just to prepare for this game, and with a good game plan that stretched us making us even more tired. But it’s not just about our fixtures and fitness it’s the fact that you will also have games leading into the re-match. Will the result be any different? Well we’ll have to wait and see.

As I’ve said before you deserved the win and well done to those of you who came over, let’s hope for a good game in the re-match.

2nd in the league says enough for me. But I also appreciate the very popular hobby of "armchair rugby coach".
The team no doubt need to do many things to improve. I have no doubt that the professionals concerned know it too.

Others may have said but I thought it was tiredness or fatigue rather than a fitness problem. Obviously those things are related but playing two games of modern rugby league in 4 or 5 days is very hard work. I'm not sure the body fully recovers in such a short time. Hence them being tired on the night and lacking bant. I may be wrong. But, fitness has not been a problem in earlier matches and I was under the impression that Millward was beasting the players pre season. We have a good physio also so I'm sure they are well conditioned just not fully recovered from Widnes match.

Quite possibly Fev were or are a better team than us and beat us - quite prepared to believe it. If so Millward and co have their work cut out but I have faith that they will do that come the business end.

How has nobody mentioned Tommy G and Jimmy T? Both worked their nadgers off last night.

In this division it is unlikely that any team can go the full season unbeaten so not too disappointed that we were beaten by the current form team and top of the division. I do think however that the results of teh next two games will define our standing in the table come the end of the year.

your right I missed them two Taylor & Goulden we're good & we all know Taylor is a tackling machine but Tommy is trying to take his title he's a good old fashioned rugby player is Tommy like a work horse he is.

It was quite obvious to me and those sat around that the lads looked very tired last night 3rd game in the same time as Fevs 1 game, it became evident when passing was going astray knock ons and all in all a very tired looking set of lads I was not surprised we lost the game but thought we did very well only to be 8 points adrift at the end considering Fev played better than us.We have lost a game so what, we don't need to start with the analysis yet ,i'm sure IM does'nt need telling how to do his job .Fev are not top for nothing ,its a blip thats all .

Lets hope the tiny blip doesn't grow into a bigger blip with Whitehaven and Fax next up

Haven is the last place you want to go when you've got some tired bodies, I'm sure Stokes will make sure its a physical game.

Tut

You only play as well as the opposition allowed and Fevs defence was top notch last night.Tiredness, one dimensional, no plan B are all good excuses but in reality Fev got in our faces and like we did at Fax did not allow the opposition 1 second on the ball.With a bit of luck and the bounce of the ball we could have scored a couple of tries when we kicked over the line,Fev got that luck with two of their kicks.

They deserved to win though and I think Leigh will be a better team as a result of several lessons learned last night.

2nd in the League is more than I expected and we do not become a bad team of what after all was a very close game.

Fev won we lost move on it happens its Rugby League, haven next lets look forward not back.

Get off Snowy,s back u lot this is a forum is it not ?

The lad opened the thread with his opinion and opened up a meaningful debate ,if you don't agree with him offer a different angle.

Its a marathon not a sprint and yes all is not lost with one defeat ,but you can bet your last quid that IM will look at that defeat and Analise and come up with a corrective plan.

Take your hat off to Fev coaching staff for doing their homework.

The Watcher is telling Snowy to read the stats, best points for & least points against. The Watcher will stick with coach Millwards way & will treat Snowys opinion with the contempt it deserves.

We looked a little a jaded and understanably so after 3 games in 11 days. They had a lot of time to prepare and did a very good job on us. We will play worse and win this season and I for one am not too worried about the loss. Millward is a top class coach and will spot where we went wrong/improve for next time and we aren't one dimensional. Our strenghth has been on our line speed and stiffling defence and that is going to be affected with so many games in such a short period of time, going all the way back to esater including two trips to France.

We will come back stronger starting at 'Haven on Sunday.
