You have got to wonder do we actually do ball control skills in training cause our handling and ball movement is poor

Improving but in my mind only because Leigh are deteriorating. We still look clueless and looking for one player to come up with magic.

Pretty sure most fans would have taken any win tonight. Great comeback, good resilience. Hope Jai's injury isn't too bad.

What have your lot been doing all pre season? Seriously bad stuff, even with a few players missing to only just beat a team who haven’t played in a year is shocking. Blake Wallace and Mellor basically gave you the win. Hand Saints another title now if that’s anything to go by.

Leigh should have been walloped tonight, they’re a proper poor team all across the board. I’d be amazed if they won a game this season to be honest. We were poor in all aspects of our game and as I wasn’t after the Salford debacle I’m not enthused at all on this performance.

We have been waiting for your observations, thanks

he was my MOM they targeted him all game and did nothing wrong even with punishment

Got out of jail there. Can’t see what excuses there are for that first half performance. It just wasn’t competent and first game of the season or not there is no real excuse for that.

If IL was thinking of saving some money by not spending George Burgess wages I think a rethink is required.

Still two points after a poor performance is still two points.

Terrible first half. Better second.

Glad they were able to tough out a win. Gutted for field, hope it's not too bad. I'd be getting Hastings and French in asap assuming they still play for us.

For me hardaker showed exactly what I was talking about regarding him being a different class to sarginson. Came up with a game breaking play when we needed it.

Nice to see Smith kicking well at the end too.

Thought the squad looked a little light and so it was the case better teams than Leigh (who gave good value to be fair)will turn that side over so maybe look see to see if any wingers are available Hanley is a way off being ready just yet.

But better second half thats for sure.

Best opening game we could’ve hoped for. We have had a shambles of a pre season considering how long it’s been and we’ve won Leigh’s cup final. The club need to wake up on how a big club needs to act but ultimately they’ve dodged a bullet because the players are conditioned to dig as deep as you can go.

The only way is up.
