I think mercenaries in this sense refers to your pack who have each had more clubs than Tiger Woods!

Well the likes of Hock, Hansen and Patterson were all mercenaries when they signed for Salford but I guess they're all playing for Leigh on minimum wage for the love of the club?
Hoping for a Wakey win to bring the Leythers down a peg or 2!

I agree, i think it will be very close. Leigh have yet to win a game away, whereas Wakefield have had a close loss and a close win at home. I certainly think that the Hull FC and Salford squads are better than the Leigh one, but they're hitting the game full of confidence following a couple of strong wins. Hopefully we'll see a resurgence and some drive from the Wakey boys to make up for their substandard performance last week

| Certainly looking for a positive reaction to last week's disappointing performance. Going to be another tight one!

| Dangerous to mock Leigh's squad at this stage - they've performed well so far and could easily outplay us tomorrow; they're fast out of the blocks and full of enthusiasm and confidence - the opposite of us against Leeds last week, with one or two exceptions.

It wouldn’t surprise me if Salford’s coach (who I thought was a great player for us) had nearly as many changes of clubs during his playing career as those three have put together. (For the record I am too lazy to look it up!)
It’s a short career, players come and go, and those three are preforming better for us than they did for Salford. Why are they better for us I don’t know it could be the clean air, the lobby, perhaps DB offers them cheap decking as opposed to donkey rides, love and understanding, facilities, coaches, management, locals etc etc but one things for sure in my experience money won’t be the only factor.
You wanting Wakey to win, well that’s no great shock either I hope Hock and Co give you more reasons to continue your obsession.

There’s a YMCA charity shop in town, does that count?

| I don't get the issue with a players age? if they are good enough then what does it matter?
You see it on every board when teams play Leigh, usually quoting Hock & Hansen.
Hansen-31 V Kirmond-31
Hock-33 V Finn-33
I know which 2 I would be picking on form.
Huby, Hirst & England all touching 30, yet Leigh have Hopkins, Acton, Burr & Green all under 26??
What does it matter?? Maybe the fact Leigh have a good blend of youth & experience is why the pack has been dominating teams?
One thing I can guarantee is the game wont be won or lost on players age.

It was in to your "friends" comment about Leigh's ageing mercenaries beating our youth, so it was a fair question.
Leigh are surpassing most people's expectations so far this season and the energy in your squad is admirable.
It should be a good game tomorrow, against 2 well matched sides. I just hope if were 20 points up at half time, we dont think the
game is won
The bookies are giving Leigh 2 points on the handicap so, there's not going to be too much in it.

| Clearly touched a nerve with the mercenaries comment, yet I reckon plenty of Leigh fans have said that about Catalans and Toulouse.
