Before the match we said that whatever the result, which we thought could go either way, the way we performed would probably define how we would get on for the rest of the season. So at the end we were disappointed, but felt the performance has set a platform for a real good go at a top four finish. Two tries from silly mistakes and one that shouldn't have been given shows how close we came, and the penalty count shows we are starting to sort out our discipline - though with the lack of consistency from that referee perhaps that's saying too much.

That said it's clear why Leigh are riding high at the moment, and we could learn from how they do it. Their half backs boss the game very well - they know how to frustrate the opposition and hold on to a lead, and there is quality throughout the team, pity some of it comes from Sam Barlow!

Let's have some fun against Hull (pity I can't be there), then keep improving against Halifax and Bradford.

I'm guessing you're refering to moi.

I have actually only got about 13 definites if you care to check again, mate.

The others have the word "Just" next to them. Meaning that if we keep that many players that are [ijust[/i good enough for SL, then we'll probably be really up against it more weeks than not.

Even your friends in the media are writing this -

[iLEIGH WILL NEED TO STRENGTHEN

The Leigh Sports Village looked and sounded great on Saturday afternoon and will be a fitting home for a Super League side and there is a strong possibility, based on Saturday’s performance, that it will host Super League games on a regular basis in 2016. The Centurions will be full of confidence going into the Super 8’s but should they gain promotion their current team will not compete in Super League on a week to week basis. Their management will know they will need to overhaul their current squad if they are to be strong enough to retain a Super League place in the long term.[/i

Many a slip twixt the cup and the lip,of course.

Still the second full month of the season to be completed.

Thought you lot were all on the Scarlet Turkey....

Wrong word there for me.

But I know what that article is saying in the main. And my thread in our forum says similar too.
