i think youve started already

Yep lol

So we potentially bring Hampshire in for French if he’s band

Just watched the recording of the game and maybe I was a bit harsh saying the 2nd 40 wouldn't warrant any progression in the play offs, we managed the game brilliantly at times and just backed our defence.

Brad O'Neill must be a shoe in for YPOTY. His last stint at 13 was immense, I think Peet will utilise him more over the few weeks in that position and keep Smithies on the field at prop.

I was fuming when he used him at 13, his distribution was/is far better than Powells, should have swapped them around

I agree on the distribution part, but O’Neill has looked good at LF on the 2 occasions he’s been played there this year. Looked very good at Leeds for the last 15/20 mins when he slotted in there. Has a decent little step on him too to get in between defenders.

Feels like we’ve half an eye on next year with O’Neill spelling at 13. You don’t buy a guy like Leeming to play only 20 minutes a game but you need O’Neill on the field for the majority of the game.

If there is any consistency then he won’t receive a ban. LMS did exactly the same at wasn’t suspended.

Leeming used to fill in at half back at Leeds I'm pretty sure. Maybe they're looking at players ability to play various positions and roles thus moving them around to see who's best and where.

Has anyone seen Derek’s speech last night? Spat his dummy out over the decision to disallow their try on Friday. Quite embarrassing really. The video should be in the comments on this post VVV https://www.facebook.com/groups/5892069 ... 359522102/

Typical RL fan response.

Anyone can see the league is better with this strong Leigh side in it & that's all down to DB dipping into his pockets and paying for it. From a Wigan POV, we've had three big game type fixtures against them and they've been great. He's invested in the squad (Lam is fine player) and arguably, more importantly, he's invested in the atmosphere on game night too.

But yeah, he's an idiot that Leigh (& in turn SL) could do without. Let's go back to Leigh in the Championship.

Ridiculous and embarrassing. He's a good sport until he loses - then he's a loose cannon.

He's going to set up a new competition called 'Ultimate Rugby'. Best of luck Derek.

To put so much emphasis on the no try on Friday is absolute madness...if it had been given a try, I absolutely believe it wouldn't have decided the game at that point. Not too sure if it's already been said on here, but FWIW I thought theirs was a try and ours wasn't.

Having DB pump £££ into Leigh and them being competitive is great for Super League and it's great having another local rivalry, but I wish he'd just knob off with the brain farts!
