What's people's thoughts on this one? Yet another debutant in, Leigh struggling, us struggling, time to stand up and be counted I think. Up The Fax.

The way we (Leigh) are playing, I would back 'Fax in this one - especially if you are within 14-16 points, with ten minutes left!

x 2 on this one Hudds.

Bookies have this about right. Leigh by 12. Our rustiness with ball in hand won't improve. Leighs full time fitness and the usual refereeing decisions mean a bridge too far for me

Should be an unconvincing win for us Leythers....

Sounds about right!

Leigh by 6. Hate to say it.

I wish I shared your (Fax fans) confidence in my team! Sure, we must improve sometime, but we haven't seen the evidence to support that theory yet!

Looking forward to the game though - they are always good between our teams.

You will see the tallest scrum half in RL later today, Drew Hutchinson. He's 6' 2", and despite having an Austrlalian accent and having played a massive 4 games for St. George Illawarra, he will not cause you many problems tomorrow. Yes I'm being bitchy, but he tries his best..and at least he's not done a Kurt Baptiste and gone back home "because the championship isn't as easy as he thought it would be".

To be fair Budge, I think it was Baptistes Mrs who wasn't keen on life over here , I heard she insisted on staying at Salford Quays,and hopefully we will use his contract money more useful.
I've been say the same about Hutchy since I first saw him, he would make 2 of Andy Greg, pity he can't play as good as Greg.

Credit where a lot of credit is due.
Well done this aft

Shane Grady absolutely superb. Super League quality player.

What an idiot

Apart from the first set where we put the ball down early the completion rate was 100% better and as a result we had some good field position and pressure as reflected on the scoreboard.
Johnston made a difference and asked questions we haven’t been asking.
Good games by all across the park and a big team effort, the lads had to stand up and be counted today and they did.

A very enjoyable afternoon at the Shay for a change. We were in control of the game from the off. Two of Leigh’s try’s cam from a ball squirting out and could not do much about that and a rather awful kick near their line. It should have been drilled on the ground. I think if those two incidents had not happened Leigh would have only had 6 points.
Everyone played their part today although I realy don’t think Kay adds much to us (sorry to Kay fans). It was a fantastic performance today up the fax

Charlie is right about one thing - that Hutchison is very average for Leigh. I think something needed to change to get a result today, and Grady and Johnston coming back in made all the difference. JWH added some nice touches from fullback. Not biggest fan of Johnston but he has the X-factor that when it works, it works really well - certainly proved me wrong today. Let's hope we can take a similar performance to Toulouse. Win that and we're really back in the mix.

How dare you criticize Hutchinson, he's played 4 games in the NRL....he's quality !

Wow what a great effort today I have to admit I did not see that coming, yes Leigh are out of sorts but we dominated them from first minute to last and gave them 2 tries.
Well done to RM for changing things around bringing in Johnno and switching Will Sharp and James Woodburn-Hall around, also having Grady back and the Cas lad didn't let us down.

Excellent Team performance but not quite sure why Sharpe was on the wing after being our form player at Fullback didn't think Springer looked any better than some of our reserve Fwds just getting him fit for Cas

I thought JWH at FB and WS on the wing worked Ok. Springer was a bit too keen, and contrary to my earlier thoughts needs some time with the team if he plays again with us. He's a big unit and could be awesome if he learns how to fit in.

I think Sharpy gave us some speed out wide which he is good at running at the line but better in attack like at Rochdale than from defence with Woodburn-Hall making a decent fullback so a good switch imo

Thought the decision to switch our most effective player of recent weeks to the least effective position was crazy and still do.Fortunately we were excellent in all other areas.Big rap for Grady and the others needing a big game like Johnston,Grix and Tyrer.Again the DR forward offered nothing and the returning Heaton was far more effective than what has replaced him in recent weeks.

I’m think RM switched Sharp to wing as he is probably looking for more of a pivotal player at FB, like most teams have these days. Yes Sharpy runs the ball out strong but he can also do that from wing as he showed yesterday. However, he doesn’t have the best pass on him and some of the lines he runs from FB are quite predictable. We also need whoever plays FB to be more alert and backing up through the middle. At Rochdale the other week we made several busts only for there be no one in support. Royston would have had a field day

i was raging at the fact RM moved sharp to the wing - completely took it back at the end of the game, thought it worked perfectly. Sharp still managed to make the yards up the middle and woodburn offers more of an attacking threat at FB than sharp does. quality switch and i hope he sticks with it.

Looks like a few weeks out of the team gave Jonno the rocket he needed - great game.

Grix needs to be at 13 as i said before the season started, how much better did our lines look with him down the middle rather than wasted out wide!

And i think some people need to take their 'I hate DR caps off'. Springer had a good game and earned us a couple of penalties whilst threatening the offload! i'd like to see him here for a longer spell.

Springer had a good game and won us a couple of penalties.....LMFAO what a justification for his pointless inclusion.When he's fit he'll be back at Cas and his only pass was to the wrong fecking team.
