A win is a win, it would have been tragic had we lost and the news of Kelly's injury.'"
I don't, he thought it was a list cause, thaler was shouting, Ben put it down. Nearly got clobbered. Massive get out of jail but equally big boost.

| Thought our SL status was in serious doubt when i'd seen Kelly was out. But after today, winning when we were very poor in the first half and average in the second. An still won! Pretty confident we'll stay up comfortably now.
My major concern is the CC final without Kelly. It was a big ask even with him, but without.......

| I've been telling a friend of mine i don't expect any SL side from this season not to be in SL next season because i didn't think a championship side could match a SL team on fitness. What i have been saying is Leigh are a professional side playing amateurs (bar 1 or 2 others) week in week out so they are going to win. Alright, they beat wakie and salford but at the time they couldn't buy a win. Rovers where out on their feet today first half, Leigh threw all they had at us in the 1st half and to be honest, i thought we had blown it and my theory was right out of the window. Thank f that Rovers proved my thinking right. Leigh...not lost at home for 2 yrs, Leigh not lost at home for 30 games...Leigh had 2 weeks rest on us...Leigh at full strength as far as i am aware...Leigh home support driving them on...Rovers away record shocking, rovers out played in first half...rovers 18 points down at half time...yet...second half, Leigh looked knackered and Rovers just did what they had to. I might be eating my words after game 7 but after today, if Leigh couldn't take a really under performing SL side at home then they won't be in SL next season.
PS, i thought Leigh where great in the 1st half, some really fantastic play and tries, a pleasure to watch, entertaining rugby which is what this great game of our is all about.

| Think leigh lost it rather than we won it,but credit to the team for sticking at it and we controlled the game pretty well in the 2nd half.Thought donaldson was terrific and looks to be improving every game.

HULL KINGSTON ROVERS is my religion, Craven Park is my church and Jordan Abdull is my God: |
|
| Job done
Decked massively stacked against us, I don't for one second think this fixture was randomly generated for the week after a cup semi final game
Was worried at half time but good stuff

Wouldn't call it good stuff. Did what they had to do, eventually.
First half for me, Leigh just had more desire. The Dixon & Armstrong tries typified that for me. No player has the right to score simple tries like that. Certainly not at this level.

Agree with most of that except you say when Leigh beat Wakefield and Salford they couldn't buy a win but Salford were actually fourth then

You're right, but wasn't it a week or two before that, that their "injury crisis" started to unfold and went on a 6 or 7 game losing run including Leigh?

Not on here, he's retreated back to his own forum. Still spouting sheet mind.

| From a rhinos fan, we'll done on yesterday's second half performance. It took a fair amount of effort and commitment to overtake the Leigh score line .
Look forward to what should be an excellent wembly final.

Get LEIGH outta wigan: |
|
| Well for a game i wasnt expecting to win,i cant believe how gutted i am that we lost it.
Couldn't believe we went for the 2 point when we got the penalty on your try line,a try & conversion would have finished you off then,imo.
Good luck for the rest of the games & i hope you win them all now.
