Ah right ... carry on cupping their ball's , every week they are getting worse sign of a bad coach im afraid

As a Rovers supporter I am obviously happy with the result. What I will say is that 3 games in 8 days is just plain silly for all RL teams. Regarding today's game, the contrast between the teams going into this period cannot be underestimated. Rovers won every game and 6 points clear with the luxury of being able to rest players on Monday, albeit many enforced through injury, Leigh suffering successive defeats with a tough couple of fixtures over the Easter period and the impact this has had on confidence, not to mention energy levels and the players bodies. Hopefully you have come out with no injuries and a focus on the league. I am sure that it won't be long before you start picking up the wins and the rests when the cup rounds are on will only help in the league. Best of luck unless we meet again in the middle 8's.

Think you played quite well against a depleted squad,your obvious pace outside being the difference and an excellent following.Good luck on the cup run.

Ridyard Fb and Reynolds SO.

Depleted yes, but what a stupid decision to have our main pivot and organiser out of position.

Ridyard defence is poor to boot yet we have 4 competent full backs playing.

I just don't get it and that is not the players fault. It's just stupid!

THAT is a coaching decision.

Leyth started the season fuelled with lobby,heart and passion. Sadly stamina is also a prerequisite and the old men of leyth are in short supply of it. I think you will struggle to make the top eight but I hope you stay in SL

Evidently a decision by a coach under stress and reminiscent of playing Rangi Chase at fullback vs. Batley in 2016. It just isn't done by someone with cognitive clarity, very disappointing. Ridyard and Drinkwater partnership = positive outcomes as seen in the middle 8's, 2016.

Obviously you and Centurino weren't there. That was the way it appeared on the printed team sheet in the bar, but I can tell you that Reynolds played full back, for the full 80, as did Ridyard at stand off.

Today was almost an exact reversal of our meeting with KR last season. They are flying high in the Championship, and have the resulting confidence. We are struggling in SL, and have the resulting lack of confidence.

Somehow the coaching team and players need to get back to the defensive commitment and skill, shown against Saints, Huddersfield, Salford and Warrington - and even at Wigan.

For my money, the major problem lies in attack. Scores of 6; 10; and 10, in our last three games, tells a story. We seem totally incapable of exerting any pressure at all, inside our opponents' 20 metre area. The number of times we dropped the ball, passed it to the opposition, chucked it forward, and conceded penalties in possession in that area, beggars belief. We need to be able to control play, on attack, and build up pressure on the opposition, who are having it easy, on defence.

How we cope with what appears to be a serious lack of pace, won't be easy to solve though!

P.S. We seem to play much better at night!!

Hi guys hope you lot are well......great win for us today with both teams missing a few.
Hopefully we can both enjoy our seasons and if we meet come end of season then so be it.
We both know the aim of this season and winning the Challenge Cup isn't it.
Best wishes for the rest of the year.

PAC.

Cheers PAC - and well done on a thoroughly deserved victory. Hope the Cup doesn't distract you from your main aim!

Should have used the sprinklers..

Isn't it wonderful when people who didn't go comment on something that didn't happen, it is called 'Foot in Mouth Disease'.

Both teams were somewhat less than full strength but Rovers did target this game - only 2 players featured across the whole Easter period and we were able to introduce a raft of our better players, fresh after not featuring on Easter Monday. I think this was a big factor today.

We both move on, next up for you another punishing game at St Helens for us a less daunting home game versus Rochdale. There's the difference ....you must back up better than ever we could field a reserve team and get away with it.

One thing we can tell you is that Super League is unrelenting it's no good thinking we'll be OK when players come back because when one comes back another or even another 2 get injured. Eventually you don't actually have enough fit players to make a team and send out 6 or 7 jabbed up. Rovers were in that situation last season time and again.

You have to hope you arrive at the middle 8's in good health but probably you won't do. More likely you'll have to save your Super League lives whilst being battered, bruised, depleted and jabbed up. If you can do that you've nothing to worry about.

Ever since we played Widnes, something hasn't been right in the Leigh camp. It isn't just down to injuries and suspensions. We had a punishing defence against Saints, Wire and Hudds but now the enthusiasm and working for each other just isn't there. Some players are still giving their all but I just get the feeling something has gone on behind the scenes that we aren't aware of.

Hope they can sort it out quickly or it's going to be another short stay in SL.
