Or was it Bradfords way off introducing themselves to the championship?

Sounded like we got back to playing rugby second half,it told in the end.

Leigh much better in second half, deserved the points.

Think we lost the intensity in 2nd half, not sure if it was attitude or just a poor half.

I think when we play them at odsal it will be interesting - Ferguson, Luaki and Blythe will hopefully improve us.

Couple of noticeable issues walker liability in centre, doesn't help when you're scrum half spends 20 in the bin. Mullaney to partner Gaskell in halves for me he was a massive plus today

More down to a very weak ref giving far to much leeway. If one of those early yellows was red, it would have been a different story. But when the ref has no authority, the players will do what they want

Agreed he's alwayd been week at dudley hill but rfl have the thoughts to try rush refs through! Plus he's from Leigh, big decision for me was the penalty for high shot in their in goal that gave them a penalty to go up the other end and score

Couple of stupid decisions from Siejka and he didn't have a great game but I think it's unfair to write him off after 1 game.

Coough impressed me most out of new signings.

A lot to learn from this game. Could be a good thing for us long term though. Poor second half and we got out completely put off our game by Leigh.

Played some dumb rugby at times. Siejka getting sin binned twice was just stupid.

The head high shot by the TJ when we should have had a drop out was a shocking call.

RFL should also hang their heads in shame for putting such a young inexperienced referee in charge of such a big game. He had no control at all.

A lot to learn and improve on

Chev Walker has described Leigh's tactics as 'thuggish'.

One super league game today so a few super league refs not doing owt today and we get that muppet, plus touch judges

Overall better team won, winning at half time 20-6 you should not lose second half 30-4

Walker is not a centre

Danny Addy out injured with a torn hamstring.

Those stupid decisions meant he spent 20 minutes off the field. You'd be hard pressed to find any team that can cope without one of it's pivots for a quarter of the match. 2 sin bins should be a dropping offence anyway, but the second one was when we were still in the match.

Certainly some unsavoury things going on. Everytime a stop in play they were pushing in face. After one stoppage, One of the Leigh players throttled Pitts by the throat, but the referee did nothing. Just kept letting those things build up until we had the all in brawl. But we allowed ourselves to be dragged into it and Leigh took advantage big time.

Leigh scored some good tries to be fair and played some good stuff in attack. They will certainly trouble the SLmteams in the super 8's.

I'm not saying it didn't have an impact on the game, but I doubt Lowes is going to drop his first choice 7 after 1 game. Especially considering how niggly the game was as a whole.

Leigh's tactics were nowhere near thuggish. I felt Bradford were more interested in playing against the clock rather than playing rugby. It always seemed that Bradford were playing to slow the game and stop Leigh getting a roll on. Everybody knows leigh score points very quickly once they get rhythm sorted, and rather than Bradford bringing their own brand of rugby to the fore, they simply tried to nullify and dismantle ours. A good way to play us though! Had the red been stronger we'd have both been down to 12 at least. Bradfords tactics were certainly mid 90's rugby league, trying to negate opposition strengths rather than use your own.

Welcome to the Championship Chev you soft bugger stop crying and grow up

Blinkers.

That's rich coming from him

We're no saints but todays thuggish tactics came from the bulls.

How?

Blinkers? Can I borrow yours if you ever get them off?

Could I just ask were you at the game today

Bradford weren't thuggish, they just used the world famous dewsbury niggle, and got away with it for 70 minutes due to the prepubescent referee.

I think both teams were as bad as one another. I would just like to say that your coach is a complete and an embarrassment to your club. I always stand by the tunnel and clap the players off. Even the opposition. After doing this to your lads I leaned over and went to shake Lowesy's hand and wished him all the best for the rest of the season. I was told to " f##k off " and he walked straight past. After being a supporter of Bradfords struggles I now have a deep dislike for Bradford Bulls and hope you fail at everything.

Same tactics against us at the Shay last year when they were losing.

Read my posts. Leigh much better than Bulls and played better rugby in 2nd half.

If you really think there were was no nastiness coming from Your lads today you're either blind or a moron.

Perhaps both.

TV Boy, don't let their coach make you hate them......if we'd have lost, you probably wouldn't have said that to him, I know I wouldn't.
