Thought we were poor tonight.


Out enthused for periods and made some very basic errors. Contact in defence was way off.


We are definitely playing in third gear at the moment but given we are out of the cup that’s all we need to be.


Moments of brilliance in attack paper over the cracks of a very unwigan type performance tonight.


I’m being critical but I have no doubt we will not be making those same errors or out enthused in September and October. 


Finally Hope ZE is ok. Worrying scenes and pathetic to hear cheers from the Leigh end when he stayed down. 

Spot on Jon - really didn't enjoy our performance tonight aside from Bevan's brilliance. It's becoming a habit to take a big lead and then let the opposition back in - see Hull FC in the cup, Saints, Warrington twice and now Leigh.

I just think its hard for the players to stay as motivated as they have been previously. Maybe the team needs that big game to focus on which we don't have for a while now.

Way too much arm grabbing and nowhere near enough oomph in the tackle.
Playing like we did in the middle of last season when it all went very flat for a couple of months, I'm with Jon on expecting us to pick up the pace when it matters though

We're in our 'a wins a win' phase of the season and we've seen enough of them now to know it won't last but they can be frustrating. Next week worries me a bit. Catalans were truly awful last night but they'll want to bounce back and it's the sort of place were a lax attitude can soon get you in trouble, with their crowd on at the ref all game and if you panic, you can soon be chasing the game. 

Tonight was Leigh’s Wembley, their fans are a bunch of imbeciles. I too am hoping that Zach is ok but, given that he has gone to Salford Royal suggests that the medical staff are concerned.

Drop Farrell and put Walters in at second row.

Walters has been fairly average as second row, he needs to stay at prop for me where he is much more effective.

Positive update on ZE from the club 


Zach was taken to Salford Royal following last night’s game against Leigh Leopards, where he had further scans which thankfully came back clear. We thank the medical staff at The Brick Community Stadium for their work and support.
We would also like to thank Salford Royal for their professionalism and work. Zach will now receive appropriate care from our medical team at the Club, we thank the many fans for their support and concern shown for Zach.

Good news

Good news about Eckersley, great that the scans have come back clear. Hopefully he recovers quickly. 

Farrell still has 2.5 years left on his contract. Seems crazy considering his form in the last 12 months.
