Score line really didn't give justice to how much Leigh controlled the game. A couple of cracking tries as well.

Nine games into the season now. We have won 7 and lost 2.

It is no surprise the 2 losses are against good sides.

With respect to the other 7 these performances are not 80 minute performances and given our squad this is not good enough.

Our defence switches off too often and our attack is hardly scintillating.

Well I am not too impressed and fear for us at Fax. BRIERLEY is wasted at scrum half. Finnegan's defence was good in the first half but that missed tackle in the second was appalling. His defence against Barrow was very bad too.

I am not just blaming him for conceding 22 points but we look like a team who does just enough in games against average opposition.

We are too slow in the threequarters. We are not playing well and I am sick to death of that predictable inside ball.

I really do hope Coyle is back soon and our coaching team start fining players for shocking errors in defence.



Sorry Matt.

Guessed it one Charles, I had almost overcome my insomnia when the radio kicked, having said that the signal was poor here in Barbados

Two wins out of two over Easter cant complain but like others have said our play at times is very predictable players don't seem to be switched on several times today we worked a opening all they had to do is move the ball thro one more pair of hands and McNally was over the line instead a forward got the ball and ran inside daft some outstanding defense from both team Beswick tackle in the first half on that big forward right on Leigh's line was top class stopped him dead with the aid of McNally the Workington fans where giving McNally stick everytime he came into shouting distance it was brilliant when he scored and looked up at them and gave them a big smile lol All in all it was a win but the ball needs to be moved around a lot better if we are to challenge Fev, Halifax Sheffield players need to be aware of what's happening in both attack and defence instead of switching off. Can't wait for the Fax game away it should be a cracker Well done Centurions job done over Easter...

We have just scored 42 points at home, my guess is its not our half backs that are the problem. Riddy and ryan created a lot of chances today which is there job, they did there job! On the other hand some of the missed tackles were appalling.

Is anybody happy when we win a game that we should do (at home)
Judging by the 'internet' fans....NO !
We played quite good in patches today, Worky didn't deserve 22 points, but a win will do....long way to go yet !!!!!!!

I am happier when we win than when we lose.

I am not happy however with our defence because sometimes it is worse than poor.

With respect to Workington they are hardly a fast side but yet they scored 4 tries and previous home game Barrow 4 in the first 20 minutes. Sheffield 24 in the first half. It is just not good enough and you might notice I have not mentioned Fev away.

RL is an 80 minute game and despite our comebacks the stats speak for themselves.

We need a scrum half and quicker play the ball. We need concentration for the full 80 from our players. We need improvement but we seem to do the same for a full game ie lose concentration.

Five times today Brierley passed the ball to the wrong player when we were attacking. Do I blame him or the coaching staff ? Well am I just posting this just to be annoying ?

It is not good enough.

It needs sorting otherwise we will get tonked at Fax.

It looks easy when you are on the terraces Frank.

But its funny you dont mention, mcnally dissalowed try, gardner held up over the line (should of scored ) and tommy gouldens try which Brierley all created??? Thats the problem with this club at the moment, too much negativity. I would hate to think what you would be like if we had got beat by whitehaven or york....

suicide comes to mind

Well I watch our side home and away. Win or lose. I praise them when they do well and say when they don't.

I rarely blame the ref but quite honestly we should be playing better than we have done all season. We are not' for whatever reason. I know it you know it the players know it and I am sure our coaching staff know it.

It is not being negative I want the lads to play to their potential.

Scoring 42 points would suggest there isn't too much of a problem with attack. If everything had come off today then we'd have had 70.

It is concerning that the defensive aspect seemed to disappear completely in the last 15 minutes, and Workington's first try was a particularly soft one to concede, but I'm sure it would be a lot more secure in a tighter, more intense game. Some of the defence on our own line in the first half was top drawer, as was Brierley forcing Spencer Miller in to touch after giving him a 10m head start.

Spot on matt

We will beat fax ! We always do ! LOL

I am not knocking Ryan who I rate highly but we scored 42 against a slow side. Yeh we could and should have scored more but we did not.

Our defence sometimes is wanting and it needs sorting.

Spot on,

Bless..........
We need SalfordLad/FrankB on our coaching staff......PLEEZ !

And I would do it for nowt.

I would sort this cold weather too.

Glad some of you lot aren't hull kr fans we would need to hide the knives!
Long way to go in season. if we manage to get to play offs and win one game that will be a good season. Better than the previous post SL years in this league.
The players make it pretty obvious they believe they have improvement in them let's allow them to prove it. I'd rather lose twice to sheff in league finish 5th and beat em once in the play offs than top the league as it doesn't mean much now adays.

You really need to change that third letter of your user name from "s" to a "T", considering thats the umpteenth time you've tried to be clever, but your spelling and grammar has made you look foolish!

i get the impression you are far than impressed with our current coach's tactics Charlie ?



We have said the same my friend? It fools no one and Rowley seems unable to respond to the opposition's coach tactics other than the telegraphed inside ball.

My nephew's Under 11's side can soak up that. Powell and Aston have proved that both their sides will destroy us at will every day of the week with an astute coached side vs a Leigh side unable to variate from the standard game plan week in week out.

Poor Poor Poor.

Poor Poor Poor.

its not a one man team . they won you moaning gits some people are never satisfied . would love vto see some of you moaners have a go.

Too many people here who just dont want to see the bad in the team. With the team we have we should be leathering teams like workington and swinton but we are not. We have players like beswick, penky, aspinwall, riddy, littler, hopkins who are all top class.

BUT some players at the moment are not pulling their wait. we seem like we just want to go through the forwards all the time instead of swinging it out wide when it is on. As stated higher in the thread we hit the front man 3 or 4 times and Mcnally who was the back man was going mad because he had a walk in. In my opinion we are missing a creative 7 which hopefully coyle sorts out.
However, all you fans on here who are saying we won how cant you be satisfied etc. The performances at the moment arent enough for fans to come back. Walking from the ground theres a negative atmosphere. Fans saying it aint good enough but then i get on here and fans are slating fans for saying exactly what everyone else thinks. This year we have been poor up to now and i fear for us at Fax.

Fax fans have exactly the same complaints re some of their performances
