| Very relieved to get through, Dwyer was excellent, he has been great since coming back to the club. It is worrying though that whenever a team gets within our 20m they score.
Leigh were a credit to their town today the try they scored at the end of the first half was fantastic. I'm not sure we could have scored one like that with our current personnel.
Anyway, we're in the hat and that's the main thing!

| Very enjoyable game today & i can imagine Leigh giving superleague a good go providing they get in & if they can keep the same team . I am very pleased Mickey Higham didn't play or the result would probably have been different. I thought the pitch looked immaculate btw.

| Wasn't impressed by Wilkin and his antics in commentary. I hope Jiffy jumps up and down with joy when Widnes scores.

| Certainly a case of "if only" on a few occasions, and we deserve huge credit to score only one try less than a side of Warrington's quality, but I think the better side won (just about). Penny has taken some stick in the past, especially when he played against us for Swinton, but that try in the corner was world class and more than worthy of winning any game.
Still, I'm sure the players will have enjoyed playing on the big stage and will be hungry for more, as will the fans.
Tremendous atmosphere and I'm sat here thoroughly proud to be a Leyther.

Great post that Matt. Good luck v Salford Hulls and Wakey. (I hope)

| I thought we were absolutely awful for pretty much the whole of the first half. Then excellent for 25 minutes to start the second half then took our foot off the gas for the last 15.
I thought Leigh scored some very high quality tries but outside those flashes were a poor side. Couldn't do anything against twelve men for ten minutes where if they were going to win they had to get something going right there and they shrunk under the pressure to do it. Emmit was a ing joke, all he did was flubber around trying to slow the game down to his fat pace.
Leigh looked unfit for a full time team. I think all of their forwards were carrying too much fat. I'm critical of our fitness levels but I thought Leigh looked way off even us in that second half.
Some of our tries were very good too but yet again our precision and cohesion in attack was mostly poor and some of our defending was still very poor.
All that being said, it was a thoroughly entertaining cup tie and you have to remember Leigh are only a Championship side. So for that level they were impressive considering.

I thought we were excellent first half,took our foot off the gas and lost concentration for the first 25 mins of the second half,then we came right back into it,and finished strongly .
Not to bad for a team of unfit fat bast*rds!

| Quote ="garyhulsefan"The injury he's carrying might be a big factor to be fair, I'm willing to wait until he's had that cleared up before judging him. Thought we went alright today, kicking game was as good as I've seen it this season. Big games from Sims and Currie, special mention for Roy who actually did more than 15 minutes and even more incredibly did pretty well. Thought Hock was going to blow his top towards the end. Can we have a commentator platform in the South Stand for every game? Makes abusing them so much easier.
=#FF0000Glad we got rid of Higham by the way, totally anonymous today.'"
Totally disagree with you there. He did an excellent job as water-carrier, in the hot conditions! Now, had he been able to play in the game, we may have had the luxury of spelling Beswick, instead of asking 80 minutes from him.
By the way, Brad Dwyer's performance at hooker, came as no surprise to me. I've been impressed with him during our meetings with London Broncos this season.
Anyway, good luck in the semis and, hopefully, in the Final.

Well if you're taking your foot off the gas and losing concentration when you're just 2 points up and only 40 minutes in, you've got more problems than your fitness levels in the pack and letting Big Roy get more than 15 paltry minutes that he normally struggles with in SL with him rolling over everyone who went near him.

| Quote ="morleys_deckchair"Well that was hard work... I think the most worrying thing for us at the minute is that teams seem to score against us every time they get a set within 20m of our line.... We are also conceding tries from distance. Its like pouring water through a sieve.
[uLeigh scored at will... a decent SL side is going to put a good 40+ points on us soon.[/u
Couple that with the fact that we have all the creativity of a dead pigeon and its looking grim.... On form i would say we are the second worst side in SL.
On the plus side, were through to the semi final of the cup.... But that really is the only plus side for me.
We best hope we draw Leeds in the semi final, as any of the other sides will give us a right spanking.'"
So what are you trying to say? Leigh are crap or something.

Yes he's got the skills but for me he has no position nailed down and as such means we always wedge him in somewhere. His fb defensive play is shocking and we could really do with a specialist back there. Well done Roy today and I thought sims led brilliantly. [uLeigh are a super league team in all but name.'"

Yes you're right, and also Leigh wasn't at their best today. So make of that what you will.

I'd hazard a guess that he was saying that Leigh aren't a decent SL side. Which is unarguable. Neither are Warrington at present, mind.
Leigh did pretty well today, but they're hardly going to tear up SL if they do come up. I hope they earn the chance, they played some impressive stuff, but they look a similar standard to Salford to me.

No you're probably right because we a championship side. However with quality recruitment with the bigger salary cap in SL next year we will rip you to shreds.

I can live with that comparison seeing as Leigh are spending half of what salford are spending
