I kept saying to the lads around me in the North Stand, it's too early, they (Wigan) can score 3 try's in 3 minutes !
Widnes are beyond doubt the worst team & are most likely to lose their place to K.R.
What defines tonight was the endeavour & spirit of the Leigh team, once we got on top early & the fans got on top you had a mountain to climb to get on level terms.
Tierney got battered in the tackle several times & I knew then that eventually he would not want to return the ball. Tea Towel & F P Nutella were second best.
FWIW, I believe you will NOT finish on bottom 8, Leigh, Widnes, Catalans & Giants will, but I also believe Giants & Widnes will come worse off.
I don't get Shaun Whine's constant referencing of your injury crisis, there were still current Internationals on that pitch & plenty of talent on display, plus you have a far bigger squad than Leigh. At times Leigh have had 8 out through injury/suspension, this from a squad of 28.
Shaun needs to stop playing the injury card & look for solutions, I think I have heard NJ mention injuries once throughout the entire season & we have been without our Captain, a specialist centre, our fastest wing (since pre season) & our F.B (pre season) for much of this campaign.
Wigan, Top 6 come the juicy end, Leigh bottom 8, but we will see you again next year.'"
The reason that Wane has been banging on about the injury crisis is that Wigan have been going through a huge injury crisis. Is that not obvious?
You number 4 missing players above, which compared to Wigan, and to be fair, other clubs as well, is nothing like a crisis.
However, the problems do run deeper than that. Even the team that Wigan put out tonight should have had way too much for very limited Leigh team, yet they were well beaten.
Congratulations.
