| Thought Goulden and Wilkes were outstanding.
Hopkins looked a bit more like it in his 2nd stint
That is a fantastic pack at this level
Good to see pace all across the back line - Ridyard excluded 
Something would have to go badly wrong for that team not to be to at the end of the regular season - there are quality players who cant get near he 17 |

| Quote: Alan "To their credit, Doncaster came to play rugby. No obvious niggle or slowing down tactics - hence no aggro! I also thought the ref had an excellent game - very calm, and always in the right place.'"
Agreed Alan, best team I have seen play Leigh at the LSV 'with ball in hand'...amazed how dangerous Paul Cooke is, when runs near the line, looks like creating a try every time. Aged 33, he is some player albeit at this level.
He is also 'backs coach' at Doncaster RUFC, surely a matter of time before he gets his own role in SL.
Scoreline flattered us, we scored some awesome tries I know, but a bit harsh on Donny ! |

Any need for that mate, can always rely on a prat like you to have a dig about a player of an 'unbeaten side' after 13 games. When Martin doesn't play for us, see the difference, definitely not better than without him.

Never good to concede 50pts especially as we do alot on defence but came up against a class team today and by far the best in championship so well done and hope when you do get in the super league you can stay there COYD

Reckon Riddy will be the first to admit he isn't the quickest, and he doesn't need to be when he can shift the ball on to Brierley, Kay, Higson, Armstrong........and Hoppy!

Cheers mate, can see why your men are 2nd in the league very tough opposition, probably the only team in the league this year that has come to LSV not to fight but to have a good game of rugby. Good luck for rest of season |

| Quote: salfordlad "I think Foster will be a crowd favourite next season'just a shame he only had about 10 minutes game time today.'"
Not sure about next season, he looked very small when he came on. Had a good game though and was good to see him bossing the experienced players around, as he should be doing as hooker. He's definitely one to watch for the future though.
Was a good attacking game from both sides today and it was good to get a big win against a top side. Can see why they're doing so well.

Bit harsh, North Wales played some decent attacking rugby. |

I thought Foster looked tiny to the rest when he came on as it's not something you can necessarily notice when virtually stood on the touchline at U20's games....and then he came straight on and made a tackle on one of their forwards! The biggest man can be brought down with the right technique. Or failing that, just dive in front of them Acton-style.

Rob Burrow is not a big lad but he is one hell of a player. I honestly think the fact that Lewis Foster isn't a big lad is the reason Saints released him.
They have made a big mistake imo as he is a natural RL player' very quick' can tackle'feerless and not afraid to voice his opinions to his team mates. Mark my words. 
Next week's game at Sheffield is vital because if we win that I am convinced we will finish top.
I said after this season friendlies that this is the best Leigh side for over 30 seasons and although I think our left wing side is defensively dodgy at times we still have the ability to compensate more than adequately for that. Sort that out and who knows.

Very Mature - Wasn't particularly a dig, hence the  - he's not quick, or would you say different. Clearly he is more of an organiser and lets the rest of the backline build on what he does.
You don't have to be quick to dictate a game - both Ridyard and Cooke showed that yesterday |
