| One of the best games I've seen this season. A really good contest, and wonderful skill from French, Wardle, and Marshy.

| Wardle’s performance tonight was best ive ever seen by an Englishman in a Wigan jersey. Ive had zero alcohol so i can’t blame my thoughts blighted by hops and yeast.
Absolutely outstanding.
I never give a ten but tonight Wardle was a different class to any other centre ive ever seen live except for perhaps Miles and Lyon. A ten out ten for me and fully deserved.
People say King is sorely missed. I watch Wardle and smile with pure unashamed satisfaction.
Im a Carmont fan but at this rate Wardle is in a different sphere to Carmont and hopefully young kids will watch and look replicate a master at his work.

| Quote: MattyB "Tough game, thought Leigh did well first fifteen minutes of both halves. Our defence was immense, although Dwyers try was pretty soft.
French and Wardle unplayable at times and Marshy's 'worldie' try was up there with the best.
All in all we did well considering the disruption in the opening minutes when we lost Cooper.
*Just hope French is okay as he looked like he may have tweaked the back of his thigh returning that ball from his own line.
He’s fine mate.

| To be fair, Itchy, although I fully agree with you, people who were saying that King was missed weren't claiming he was better than Wardle, more than Keighran had a rather indifferent start to the season.

| Loved tonight. I thought Leigh were great and we were even better. French was ridiculously good and somehow, I thought Wardle was the best player on the field! We’ve got some team on our hands here.

| Just that moment when French scooped the ball up, when I was thinking, oh no, the best he can do is knock it over the dead-ball line. But what do I know? Why not do a U-turn through the posts and bring the ball back way upfield? Just worth the price of admission alone. And then there's Jake Wardle... Just great entertainment.

| Credit to Leigh, they really took it to us in that game great intensity to their defence and line speed. looked like a finals game. Lam has done a great job, both getting some quality players in and with their playing style.
Brought out the best in Wigan, committed defence, 100% concentration and attitude, and some amazing skill.
Wardle alone was worth the admission money then you have French and Mashall - and O'Neill defence - what a player he is.

Moto I was inferring that Wardle is a centre and King is an athlete who can only dream of having a fraction of Wardle’s skills.

| Pleasure watching Wigan at the min,shout out to Leigh gave 100% only beaten by a great team,Leigh would have beaten most if not all SL teams on that showing.
A shout out to the Leigh fans on re-hashing songs/chants from other teams a particular favourite "stand up if you hate wigan".
Couldnt decide between Wardle and French MOM but outstanding,also Marshall (still cant get picked for England)best winger in the comp and O'neil what a machine outstanding tackle on Mulhern to be followed by a sin-bin (farce) even Mulhern acknowledged it as Brad was walking off (fair play to him).
Roll on next week could push the Saints fans over the edge if the result goes our way with Cas upsetting them.

| Quote: NSW "Upmost respect for Leigh.
Moylan/Lam great partnership.
Asiata a brilliant loose
Amone, Ipape Mulhern is one of the best front rows in SL.
They’ll be highly motivated to get there first win over us as the leopards and I wouldn’t be surprised if they get one this week or the Tuesday game.'"
As expected Leigh turned up massively, with huge motivation, I don’t mean this in a derogatory way but they played like it was their GF last night. Their line speed caught us off guard massive and they won the forward battle on the whole I’d say.
The difference was the sheer class we have with the ball as has already been mentioned. Our last ditch defence is incredible too, we bent a lot but rarely broke.
A few players I want to pick out.
French - what more needs to be said. Just sit back and enjoy. Buy a ticket to watch him while we’ve got him.
Marshall - having an incredible season, literally 9/10 every week.
Wardle - I got laughed at on the Wire board for saying he’s a top 5 centre in the world but I stick by that. He is silk.
Farrimond - I was strangely more impressed with him tonight than the London game. He didn’t get much ball and we went through the left alot but defensively he was superb. Leigh targeted him but he stood up massively, even putting shots on. His feud with Moylan reminded me of Smithies first game feuding with Greg Bird. Young lion vs Old lion. A good trait to have.
Brad O’Neill - no other super league fan thinks this but I don’t care, he’s the best 9 in superleague by some distance. Defensively outstanding for us, puts on massive shots, has an incredible engine and was everywhere covering. He’s brilliant.
Throughly enjoyable game, fair play to Leigh too for many it a great contest.
Hopefully the match review panel leave the game alone and we can have a similar team against saints next week.
All 4 trophies in the bag, top of the league by 4 points, watching some incredible rugby with a great local coach. It won’t last forever but I’m enjoying every minute.

That's hopeful, cheers. BTW didn't mean to put the angry emoji, next to the thumbs up one.
