We don't agree on much Reffy but I have to agree with that comment. Lynda I missed the NRC final and today I feel like I have been robbed of another good day out watching the team I love. I really felt like sheading tears at the end today.

Nothing certain in life and certainly not in rugby.
I. Never thought we would make it though to the end of the season a few months ago so to win a trophy and still be there or there a bouts at the business end is a bonus.

While I agree on the tactical point, this was a play off game played for the most in terrible conditions, it was never going to be a ' classic ' , and not the free flowing type of match to attract the casual fan to attend in the future, the time to entertain is your regular season games

My criticism is do we stick to a gameplan too ridgidly sometimes, when in conditions like today opportunities open up that can and should be exploited?

Steve. What game plan tells you to pass the ball 5 yards behind the player it's supposed to go to or kick someone in the stomach?

Leigh were poor today. Doesn't help when you're number 7 is invisible for 80minutes. Riddy carried the side today contributed to all the points.

I'd like to see Hurst, Rowe and Smith's meters compared to Duffy, Ostick and Bate. Battered up front.

Aspinwall is one of the most ineffective players I've seen in a long time, doesn't seem to get into the game. Works hard but no real quality in what he does.

Though Penky sparked a bit of life into the game, first time Leigh played with any pace.

Poor end to the season.

Teams usually adapt to the conditions and fans adjust their expectations as to what sort of game they will witness. Irrespective of conditions they want to see commitment, endeavour, tactics ,innovation and ideas. What they don't want is to be bored to death, when the fans know what is coming next it stands to reason the the opposition will know as well.

I cant really argue with that

We need a quality scrum half, people have a go at riddy, well not me, you go to work tonorriw and do your job and the persons next to you. That is what he,s been doing for ages, because brierley just aint at the races, and aint a number 7. I shall pose a question, do you think we have re-signed too many of the current squad?

Definitely

Unless we sign Ellis or the likes of our best halve back combination would be Riddy & Govin they would compliment each other brilliantly IMO

One thing ive learned after watching Leigh over 50 yrs they will let you down more times than they will excite you big blow today was Hopkins and Gardner injured both lads have a bit of class and are powerful and in my opinion would have made a difference on the outcome of todays game Batley deserved their win had more power up front and a bit off class at halfback Leigh lost that match because of poor disipline in the first half and a inability to play the ball quickly Riddy seemed to try his best to move them around but most of the time they took the ball flat and Batley smashed em.Next season hopefully we can bring in a bit of pace out wide and a bit more power up front at times today it looked like men v boys in the forward battle All in All aint been a bad season just shows tho that we aint that far off Thanks Lads for the effort this season and that great final win

Well we will see.

I thought Brierley took a knock to his leg in the first half and consequently wasn't his usual self.

We will see in about 3 months wether we have retained players we shouldn't.

For all the criticism we scored 3 tries to their one and truth to tell our discipline cost us.

Would we have won next week anyways ? Well who knows but I don't think Batley will (and no Batley fans that's just how I see it).

From a personal point of view now we are finished for this season I think I know who will win the Grand Final.

Mentioned to a few mates today with the money I save next week I will get a new pair of shoes.

Like the tune over the tannoy at the end Always look on the bright side.

it was for Batley the ref had a blinder for them not clue what the off side rule was as for Ridyard to slow over weight no brains as was breily half backs no good sorry to say new signings needed two fast big wingers half backs and full back

Im not sure our results point to you giving them a better game, we could say the league table points the other way, we both know RL does not work like that.

Dont worry about Sheffield I wont be counting my chickens and realize how tough a game it will be. Its 2 apiece in the games against them this year so its almost the decider. They have a ton of injuries though and we have a great chance, at home to a broken team, as a Fax fan though I know nothing is a given.
