Indeed, but you’d Hope even our lot might have twigged by now that you can’t take anyone lightly.

Those 2 defeats by London still hurt and the players ought to be shown either of those games prior to the Leigh fixtures.
They start massively behind the rest of SL in terms of recruitment and they barely played last season so, it would be the hugest of huge shocks should they avoid the relegation trap door (assuming that there is relegation at the end of the season).
However, counting chickens is something that none of us should be doing.
Leigh had some great wins last time they were in the top flight and with what looks to be another unpredictable season ahead, anything is possible.

I remember Leigh taking us to the cleaners in 2015, was either part of that crazy play off system or the CCup, not sure.

We surged ahead then gave up after fifty mins. I can’t even recall if we lost but our teams negligence was epic even by our standards.

I’m wary of every team we play with the possible exception of Wigan. We don’t beat them every time by any stretch but we nearly always play well. Don’t know why they just seem to bring the best out of us.

It was the cup. We were the 2nd Super League club they beat in the comp. We got about 24-0 up but Chris Riley failed to take the next restart (bounced off his shoulder) and Leigh got a foothold score just before half time. We fell apart in 2nd half and lost 30-36 in the end.
Frustrating times.

Didn't Oli Wilkes score the winning try for them from about 30 metres out.

It has to be said that over recent seasons, we have appeared not to be interested enough in some of our "easier" fixtures.
Just when you think we should win an "easier" game, we have performed appallingly - the two London away games are a prime example, especially the second one where we "knew" what they were all about.
They are THE 2 worst performances in the last 4/5 years.

I have never had the courage to travel to London. It’s been a graveyard for us on a number of occasions to risk travelling so far. Never been able to afford Catalan.

So I’ll take your word for it.

Don't really remember the actual scores but sounds familiar.

Do remember going to Leigh for the playoff game at the season end. Lee Smith try at the start and drop goal at the end. 16-17 victory.

I was there too. That was a bit tense. I'm thinking Tupou had only just arrived but made some big runs to get us out of trouble.... Though I could be mixing two games up there.

Didn't Liam kaye score three tries in that match?

Tension increased when our friend James Child sin binned Michael Sio with about 10 to go and us hanging onto a 1 point lead.

Tupou provided the inside overhead pass for our opening try.

Thought that was against Cas but can’t remember to be honest. Think Kaye became our MVP for about a week after that

Not sure why people are so negative about his return when you consider the mass bleating when MC didn’t offer him a deal last time.

Think that game against Cas was his last for us at the end of 2013? Leigh were offering big money to build a team and Kay was just a fringe player at Wakey. Well before MCs take over too.

Was it that long ago, crikey. Still there was a lot of moaning at the time but I’d say whoever decided he wasn’t worth what Leigh were offering probably got it right.

Didn’t Mr Fox state at half time Leigh won’t come back? They did and they won. Did anyone see Mr Fox at full time?
I’ve read many a thread on here and the same bull (that’s to coin a phrase no disrespect to Bullls) still continues.

Wakey your time is up. Next.
