As opposed to Saints Hull and Catalans away much easier eh ?????
Don't worry about us fella we'll be just fine.

Well actually your performance against Wigan just made me think even more strongly that you would go down. To put in so much effort like you did and still lose an 18 point lead against a badly misfiring team really didn't bode well.

Yeah right, you mean with key players missing from Leigh as well? I think you need to see what's actually going on before you commit yourself to posting trash.

I said Wigan were misfiring in that game, I never mentioned their injuries. Yeah Leigh had some players missing, so what? Every team has injuries.
As I said earlier, if you stay up I will congratulate you on doing so, but I don't think you will. I don't know why that really seems to bother you.

Oh i see, so if a team is misfiring it means the opposition is a dead cert for relegation? I'm lost.

I don't know why I am bothering to go round in circles here, but before a ball was kicked I predicted with confidence that Leigh would get relegated. Your performances against Wigan and Warrington didn't do anything to make me doubt that prediction. You have since lost comprehensively to a Huddersfield side that so far have been really disappointing. Then lost heavily to a decent (but not world beating) Castleford.
You may prove me wrong and survive. Either way it doesn't really bother me. Its just my prediction on a forum where the whole point is to give your opinion on rugby league matters.

Honestly mate I wish you all the best. Its always good to see different teams doing well and if you do stay up and grow as a club then that's great. But you really shouldn't take other people's opinions so seriously, it's a forum, it really doesn't matter if I'm right or wrong.

Well thanks mate, and likewise but, you based your opinion on 2 games you saw which i thought was a little harsh. Anyway, we move on now, and let's see how it pans out over the next few weeks.

In my defence my opinion wasn't solely based on those two performances. Through no fault of your own you were admitted to super league with very little time in which to build a competitive squad. You were always going to be most peoples favourites to go straight back down. If we are just purely looking at performances so far then I think Salford have been worse, but I also think they have more quality in their squad and are more likely to come good. This weekend will be interesting because even at this early stage it looks like a very important fixture.
But all the best for the season. Its a shame that Hull's trip to your place comes just before the lockdown is due to end. I've been there for an England game but I've never seen Hull play at the LSV.

Lame duck? You really don't have many positive things to say about Salford do you?
You are Jeanette Crapdozy and I claim my £5.
You heard it here first.... Salford by 12. (this could backfire spectacularly )

True, never got it myself, it`s just an opinion and people have to pick someone to come bottom of the pile.

They don't get upset, they're looking for a valid reason as to why.
You might as well say it's going to be beautiful hot weather in 4 weeks because it's been nice recently.

To reverse the question, explain a reason why not? Why would someone not pick Leigh to finish bottom pre season as opposed to any other club in the league?
By the way, as a Wakefield fan, I am very used to been tipped to finish bottom over the last 10/15 years but once I remove my red, white and blue spectacles I can absolutely see why people pick us.

The analogy is terrible by the way, it`s more like were going to California in July, it`s probably going to be beautiful hot weather.

| I do get the feeling that the OP was done to get a reaction but it is only trolling if it is not true.
Leigh come into the league with no time to prepare at all. You can excuse them for being completely uncompetitive given the difference in funding and squad. However like a lot of people I am unsure if they are the worst team (or even second worst) in the comp.

The point is you've all fallen into what the WUM wanted you all to do, very similar to the other thread about two players who's worst signing
