| Well the 'dirty leigh' tag once again has seen a yorkshire team face leigh with thuggish tactics. McNally was targeted all game right from the off which must have been a tactic from aston, i wouldnt expect anything else to be honest. Gaz Hock once again gets sin binned for getting punched and doing nothing. Those that didnt attend the game will no doubt still be talking about Hock rather than astons kick to the head or the very late and dangerous swinging arm to McNally. I predict some heavy bans coming un the way of shedfield. Great to see the sheffield fans out in numbers at the LSV!!

Not really. Brambani comes in for Aston. Walker comes in for Taulapapa (been playing 13 recently) and we can switch Duane Straugheir to centre in replacement of Sam Smeaton. That's if all get reprimanded by the RFL.

| I look forward to the video! Hope it shows Hock resisting a punch, it will be historic if so. What a great quote about leythers - "empty vessels most sound" love it and how true -

| Sucks no highlight of boxing? Still a plenty of forward passess. Astons wrestling throw was very impressive - no kicks to the head though why am I not surprised - empty vessels need to go to spec savers with the ref! "Sending off sufficent!"

| Quote ="Angelic Cynic"We lost by 40 points to London,at Blackool - No dramas:no cards.Lost by 34 points at Bradford - same again.
It was 13 v 13.For your victory you used up all your interchanges and for a full time team looked remarkably unfit.
You haven't mentioned the off the ball late tackle on Smeaton after he passed the ball for the last try and he was forced to the ground.Unlike Leigh the Sheffield players don't whinge to the referee.
Perhaps with the money saved from paying for a conditioner you should spend the money on red cards,so the players can wave them at the referee and save their energy with the verbals. Trying to get fellow professionals sent off is hardly sportsmanship - a word little understood by anyone associated with your club.
Can I take it that Dixon will change from a well disciplined young man to one with attitude,like McNally.
Once again it seems someone goes from serious injury to not so serious.Bit like Barlow after his usual punch up v Halifax,McNally not as injured as first appeared.
You must be going for the sympathy vote.Bit dramatic having an ambulance and paramedic vehicle outside the ground with revolving lights still in operation.
If Hock had been punched he wouldn't have left the field smiling - it was a push as he attempted to play the ball.You must have the same imagination as the 'supporter' who saw Smeaton deliver a forearm smash on McNally.
Yes,we were quiet.We enjoyed our time at Animal Farm and it reinforced our opinion that empty vessels make the most noise.
Please take your quick wit and repartee onto the Warrington forum - they await round 2 with eager anticipation.
We,of course,eagerly await our next trip to your welcoming home.Not!
Watching the replay Sam Smeaton raises his arm in an apology gesture immediately he realizes his mistake.'"
You my friend are a very silly individual. Your teams approach to the game yesterday was a disgrace. Fev, Fax and now Sheffield cant match us this season so you resort to dirty tactics and blame Leigh. lucky for us the discipline commitee are not that stupid. You have a complete distane for Leigh which is your right, but dont try and defend the undefendable and dont make out that Greg mcNally was faining his injury, read the papers this morning and you will see that a yound lad died playing rugby at the weekend from a head injury, thats why we have ambulances, you should be ashamed of yourself Grow a set , and admit that yesterday Sheffield let themselves down and stop burrying your head in the sand. You remind me of a stupid parent who blames everyone else without seeing any wrong with there own.

I thought we more than matched you at the Keepmoat actually, we just lost our way when QLT threw the ball to Brierley.
Yesterday was a different story altogether, although I'd have been confident of our chances if Cory hadn't got sent off.

Interesting to go to the RFL disciplinary page www.therfl.co.uk/the-rfl/disciplinary. There is a useful search filter.
Apparently this year Sheffield have had 10 referrals and 1 charge, might be more after yesterday. Leigh have had 46 referrals and 10 charges.
There have been 7 championship matches which have led to charges - Bradford v Doncaster, Featherstone v Sheffield, and Batley v Leigh, Leigh v Featherstone, Leigh v Halifax, Leigh v Batley, Leigh v Bradford. Could a pattern be emerging?
Anyone know how we are all doing in the fair play league?

| I thought the previous game at the Keepmoat was a very close game, very entertaining only the wild pass which led to Brierleys try in it , but yesterday I think the Mighty Leigh would still have won comfortably even with Aston on the pitch,look forward to our next game though .

I'm not surprised you think that, you did win by 40 points after all. But we lacked creativity and killer instinct when in deep Leigh territory, something Cory would have brought to the table and it'd have taken the pressure off Briggs a bit more. The extra man would have led to more points, and less gaps in our defensive armoury. I look forward to our next game too, I'm sure we won't have to wait long.

Sorry, didn't see it that way,IMO McNally was targeted and Aston went to hurt him, straight red correct.

I wasn't there (Leigh Sports Village has the worst tasting and most expensive tea I have ever encountered in rugby league, so I'm not keen to go back).
Relying on the "highlights" it looks like Corey Aston's tackle was reckless rather than malicious, but deserving of a red card. Sam Smeaton's "late tackle" was more not getting his arm out of the way after the ball had gone, it's clear from his reaction that it wasn't intentional. Happily it looks like McNally's not too badly hurt. We'll see what the disciplinary panel have to say. There's no coverage of the punch-up so I'll have to wait on the panel for that one too.

Huddersfield played with 12 men at Widnes for 68 minutes...and won ! It wasn't compulsory that Sheffield had to concede 58 points whilst playing with a 'man short' ! REALITY CHECK FOLKS !!!

Course it wasn't compulsory but that's a pretty poor example you've stated. That's two fully professional sides whilst our game was between a full-time team and a part-time team, who had a few full-timers scattered about. After Cory got sent off, I think many people knew what was going to come in terms of Leigh piling on the points. "A long day at the office" was a much used tweet.

No you prove me wrong - you'll never accept it because it won you the match I'm not saying he shouldn't have been sent off.
You'll never accept you are a dirty team and have the worse disciplinary record in the league - prove me wrong.

Do at least try and be serious.Huddersfield had Ferres,a forward sent off - the covering for a forward is a lot easier than covering for a half-back play maker.
That is why your illustrious neighbours had Flower target Hohaia and in the previous Grand Final Westwood spanked the half back.
You will notice that it was the forwards who did the damage.You will remember all your interchange on Sunday were forwards - as were ours.
Mark 'The Assassin' Aston apparently sent out a very young player with an unblemished record to deliberately injure your full back and then when the game was well and truly lost,and in the closing stages,another player,not a forward,was tasked with the job.
Of course all this effort was done because we were playing a far superior team and yet when we played an establishd Super League side in HULL FC we managed to go the 80 minutes without any trouble,injury causing,or cards.
Any idea why forward Hock cannot knock anyone off-balance when he punches?
Any idea how you could sign Andrew Dixon and remain under the salary cap after releasing a player,was it Beaumont to Whitehaven?,and yet you can then sign Hock,Hopkins and the lad from Catalans Dragons without news of any other player releases?

AC I bet you drink BITTER when you are out you seem obsessed with Leigh and our Salary Cap , we have a very good accountant who manages our Finances very well ,as for Gareth Hock?The guy has been behaving and playing very well recently ,my opinion of you Seagulls is if you play to your true ability you are no doubt a good side , it's a pity you let it slip on Sunday , no doubt we will meet again before the year is over , I for one can't wait,I hope you finish 3rd in the League as you deserve it,best wishes Charlie.

Nah,not really.I quite admire clubs where supporters have a financial input and LISA seem great in that respect:Batley and others,likewise.
If a club strikes lucky,so be it:as with Warrington and Salford et al.
I want to see the best players.
I like the sport but if rules are in place they should be applied.
The PTB with the foot should be applied - but if Leigh are like a Super League club it is with the PTB not being played correctly allowing the scoot.Why not remove/change the ruling so all teams do it legally?
PS I Hope Chris Hill NEVER plays it correctly on Sunday and Warrington win!

Don't let not seeing the game put you off commenting Pete. These forums are full of opposition fans talking about dirty Leigh without having seen us play
