Really impressed with Leigh so far this season and Derek is doing one hell of a job making every single game an event hats off to him and a lot of other teams need to follow suit, as for the game Wigan stepped up massively compared to recent weeks and looked really good. leigh probably a little fatigued after there great win over Hull and fitness probably showed towards the end of the game. Good luck for the Rest on the Season.

thought lams summary of the game was right ob was taken out and yellow could have been red did cost us our full back which badly affected us in the end fields try was marginal and the did get bounce of ball 40/20 got 1 try french had a point to prove starting at fb and alarm bells went off each time he got the ball
dont think we looked tired half time stats pretty level disappointing 2nd half hasnt asiotasi played stand off maybe we could try that as a change give him more energy bit more go forward have to be happy with overall start we are still building
ps does field live in leyth sure just seen him in tesco or was it a nightmare

Do you think the world incident was worthy of a red card?

Late but no content to the head or back etc

Re: Wiggin game : Fri Mar 31, 2023 3:43 pm  

Being a bit more philosophical about the match and mainly listening to my mates who watch Wigan, I don't think either having a full compliment or being less shattered would have got us a result, those same mates were surprised at just how much Wigan had improved over the first seven games and it just happened to all come together against us.

I'll take a dispiriting and humbling loss to Wigan if it means points elsewhere and staying up and hopefully that is a lot of the players "bad match" out of the way.

Quite late and very forceful on a defenceless player, could have been red and will get a ban.

to many of these late hits in our game ,once you get rid of the ball you relax.Suspensions for every one would soon stop them

Re: Wiggin game : Fri Mar 31, 2023 6:15 pm  

Pies stated game plan was to target certain individuals maybe ob was one.he still looked groggy ht

Can’t disagree with that, however how many pens were there for “late” tackles that were literally a split second after the ball had been released- not sure what a player can do in that situation

Wrap the player up and not just put them on their rear. Most slightly late tackles don’t get penalised if they wrap up the player.
