It's 3 points for a win.

Really good thing that Donny lost. If we go undefeated now I can see us finishing second because fev still have to play Leigh don't they?

Great afternoon well done the Fax.
Hope Lukes ankle is ok.
How many dual reg were there?
Did you think the crowd was well over the 500 odd quoted?

Doh!

No wonder.
The Harbord Harbord, Middleton. Enraptured 5.5% Mmm!

Another great display of attacking rugby, did it a bit tough with injuries today but did what we had to do.

Great to see Murrell getting back to form and showing why he is the best in this league. The type of captain that everyone wants to play for.

Murrell the best what in this League ?Your answer should be interesting , you will be saying Big Karl will be Coach of the Year next

.

500 embarrassing we're where all the Fax Fans

Why is that such a bad shout Charlie?

When Murrell is playing at his best his overall game and contribution as an individual and to his side is as good as or better than most and he can switch between 6 or 13 within the same game with the added positional options that gives the coach.

Tell me who else offers more, it wouldn't be someone playing for Leigh would it.

Faxcar , where did I say it was a bad shout ?I asked what Murrell was best in the League at ?I presume by your Answer , you think he is the best 6 or 13 ?As for your question about who offers more ?Yes I think Martin Ridyard would be more valuable to a team , when Murrell has scored as many points as Martin then you can compare them , as well as Tactical Kicking , and linking the Backs and Forwards , just look and compare Fax points for , and Fax points against to Leighs , we have scored most points , most tries , have the Leagues best defence , and ARE 10 points clear at the TOP , I think that gives you a clue somewhere .

While I agree Fax are the form team at the moment , as you have won around 5 on the trot , but 5 is not 17 is it ?Charlie knows

.Does Faxcar ?

Never seen Ridyard celebrate a hit like this(about 20 seconds in)

To be fair Ridyard does stand out at this level but then again maybe Murrell would have done if he had not been playing in SL.

Good hit , but it was done by Makali Azue ,assisted by Vella , I presume you mean the tackle on Scott Wheeldon ?We at Leigh let blokes like Big Sam , Tommy G , Tom Spencer , and Matty Sarsfield do the big hits , Riddy is a Creator ,and has played SL for Warrington .

The clue was in the "celebrate a hit" bit.



Im not sure running a water bottle on the pitch constitutes playing SL.

Back to thread. I make that 6 wins out of 7 and 1 draw with the last loss in June to Leigh away. We currently have the second best points against second only to the aforementioned Leigh. We looked a class above the Lions today who, to their credit, stuck at it and I can see why they ran Donny close last week. Keighley did us a massive favour today.
I didn't see what happened to Luke Ambler today but we really do need him for the Dewsbury game as this promises to be a real tough one and yet another must win with Fev playing Barrow at Fev.
Loving the end of season run in and Fax eventually playing for the full 80 mins at some point this season!.

I think Murrell offers as much overall, as any player in the Fax team which is all I can comment on from what I have actually seen on a regular basis.

Do I know anything? No compared to you Charlie I clearly don't know anything but then I'm not on my own as you keep telling us, but I would rather be ignorant than arrogant, even tongue in cheek.

However I knew that from your point of view the best overall player must be playing for Leigh.

Martin Ridyard is without doubt a quality player and this year with the team Leigh have he has looked even better but is he any better than Murrell?

If we could do a club swap Murrell for Ridyard keeping the rest of the teams the same we would find out.

For all the stats you have quoted about how well Leigh are doing this year it's not down to one individual like you seem to be saying about Ridyard, after all, how long has he been there, seems a long time to finally get them moving, what has he been waiting for.

Charlie, Charlie, Charlie. On his day Scott is probably the best player in this league, Hudd-Shay knows! Now then, as for your statistics re Leigh & Fax, THE biggest stat is Fax haven't become Wigans bitches. We've sold our soul to nobody. BeLieghve me! Grove, shudds. Hawkshead NZPA 6.0 % Mmm!

out in the sun elsewhere.

Yep. However, Fev have to come to The Shay. If we do go undefeated than we'll move above them as we'll have won that game. If we lose to Fev then it's irrelevant how they get on against Leigh as we'll be behind them.

Scored some great tries today with some really good attacking play and we looked good most of the game BUT why oh why do we let teams come back with late scores in the last 10 minutes?
We have got over the boring rugby syndrome we just need to close games out better and we will finish on a high, come on ads lets get more ruthless and go for the jugular.

Er the crowd was 596 today of which at least half and my guess is over half were from Halifax, yes our support has dropped this season but some people don't like going to the LSV twice in a season its a bit boring going to the same ground, I agree but I went anyway. Its sad to see so few Swinton fans it really is they need to get back to Swinton.

I agree. the man is a general. Charlie knows NOWT! - (that's a yorkshire saying)

Not necessarily, if Fev win all their games up to playing us and they get a bonus point at the shay we will be on the same points, but Fevs superior goal difference will keep them in 2nd.

We need, firstly, to beat Dewsbury and North Wales and hope that Leigh do the business on Fev , which would make the Fax v Fev game almost cup final important.

...as could be the game after against Doncaster.

fax fans well outnumbered thier hosts.I agree it's sad the support some teams get.May not
get a 100 home fans next week as they have to play at sedgeley arena

Hudd -Shay , have a sip of the Beverage of your choice , and calm down , myself being a teetotaller , love a Coke or fresh orange juice , in my drinking days beer used to get me giddy and excited , I used to talk Rubbish

, these days have now become a thing of the past .

We at Leigh are nobodys bitches ,and our Soul is our Own , and the saying is "BeLeighve",its E before the I

.

As for Murrell and Riddy , they are 2 totally different players even though both play at 6 ,Riddy links the backs and forwards with his passing , and does the tactical kicking ,as well as goal kicking , where Murrell is more of a runner who attacks the line , BOTH valuable to their teams in different ways ,a bit like Halifaxjohn and myself .



As for me being arrogant





ME im a simple Clown everyone knows that , GFBs from your own messageboard summed me up ,"A bloke that talks plenty of sh$t , but knows a bit about Rugby ", I liked that assessment
