Relax folks. Two wins within 44 hours - this Leyth side go from strength to strength



Wonder if Watson voiced his opinion that he would prefer a full replay rather than what happened AFTER the decision - a cover ass.

With the mood that Leigh were in today, a full 80 could have gotten really messy for Giants!

Well done Lads.

Also pleased that we have resumed scoring tries. From April 15 (Wakefield away) to July 7 (Cas away) - TWELVE matches - we put 30+ on the board in all bar two (missing by two points in one of those).

Today (and Friday) was the first time since.

Seems like this committee was all pwerful Huddersfield did not agree to what happened but no appeal allowed.think we got the better of this one. we should be looking to challenge for title now win at stains. i am sure lam will be thinking that way
the try from kick on fri no one challeged in front of scorer plus we have missed 40 plus tackles a game from missing back rower takes some pressure off

For a while, SM, there was an elephant in the room. No one dared mention the possibility of Leigh winning the League Leaders Shield (except a dizzy blonde). Barring mathematically, that ship has now sailed (Nelly the Elephant has packed her trunk and said goodbye to the circus - Charlie C did offer a new contract but the purse strings were tied as he'd already 'trumped' up for a new marquee (big top)).

You are now introducing a giraffe into the room and are 'having' it live on social media!

Ladder? Use the one in the XXXL tights of said cameLEOPARD.

Bongser. Hasn't the period of the largely non-functioning attack almost completely coincided with the season finishing injury to Ricky Leutele?
The famed 'cutting left edge' has been largely toothless since his loss.
For my money he has been class and the team have missed him greatly and their performances have been diminished without him.

Two for Charnley on Friday, Jack. Furthermore, it could be argued that Huddersfield's fear of our left edge (with no little help from Halton's run in that direction) paved the way for Asiata to stroll over inside.

Indeed, and it was great to see in this last game but to say the left edge has been clunky in the past 2 months is not to overstate just how poor our creative play has been since Ricky was injured.
It was great to see a return to fluency in the left edge this weekend, but it has taken us 2 long months to get there without him.

Ricky Leutele, is such a threat in size, pace and strength that most wingers need to stay close to their centre to stop him. This is what Charnley has been feasting on all season. Since the Salford game we have relied upon only scoring 2 tries until now.

Against Huddersfield Kai was sent on numerous crash balls, because the outside route was blocked. Eventually the opposition will expect the crash ball and then the outside is clear. Gildart showed excellent centre play to keep the opposition interested before releasing Charnley.

However strange the Huddersfield game was, at least we are back to winning ways.
