I have seen alot more Leythers car badges/flags in Atherton recently (one of the main reasons i moved

)

Also why didnt the council come up with a better slogan than "Beleive in Leigh" surely BeLeighve would have worked a treat.

Good luck on Sunday

Not convinced by the whole narrowing the pitch story at all, but I guess we will soon see on Sunday.

Looking forward to this one, it's been a while since we hosted Leigh at our own place. I think we've got a pretty full choice team to pick from, so no excuses from us.

Didn't realize you were allowed to do that during a season. would have thought pitch size would have to stay constant for full season.

Leigh 19:

McNally, Higson, Dixon, Barlow, Brierley, Emmitt, Beswick, Pala, Spencer, Wilkes, Ridyard, Haggerty, Higham, Armstrong, Moimoi, Goulden, Acton, Kay, Aspinwall

Salford 19:

Jones-Bishop, J. Griffin, Sa'u, Johnson, Chase, Dobson, Morley, Lee, Hansen, Taylor, Evalds, A. Walne, G. Griffin, Forster, Paterson, Tomkins, Krasniqi, Maitua, Thornley

Happy to see Barlow in the 19 as i thought he was injured, hope he makes it into the 17.

No Hock, Hopkins, Worthington or Pownall.

Big chance for Pala to show what he can do.

Salford squad looks strong.

I am pleased to see Spencer in there with a shout, he always seems to make an extra yard or two in the drive

With hock And hoppy out Id be very surprised not to see Tom playing

Indeed....Tom loves 'smashing into' his opponents !

A blow to lose any player at this important stage of the season and Hock will be particular loss however hopefully back for the Bradford game.
That said we have played plenty of games without Gareth and have more than enough cover and skill in reserve.
Got my tickets today so now all set for what should be a cracking game.

We will defiantly miss Hock and Hopkins 2 of our most influential forwards ,we have cover though and it should be a great game ,I think Leigh will win but not much in it,I'm looking forward to meeting a couple of old Friends at the game.

Enjoy the hospitality

Thanks Lynda,the Wigan Carolis are Associate Match Sponsors for the Wakey match.

Aspinwall and Goulden to miss out?

Good to see Acton back.

Moimoi needs a big game.

Pala shouldn't disappoint.



Come on, Ryan, lad!!!!!

Good luck on Sunday

Disappointingly I can't see a win Charlie, in fact I suggest we will be lucky to stay within 16 points, not a pessimistic comment I feel, more a realistic estimation.

Still, I got my ticket today & it will be a dry away day for me, driving as her indoors ain't going, so Come On Leigh

Should be a blinder,regardless of injuries this game was never one for Hock or Hoppy...

Leigh by 12..

nob

Hock been a revelation for me over recent weeks, but possibly a blessing that he is missing this.
Not expecting us to win, what is important for me is how we react after last week - need to show that we can still compete at this level. If we get within 12 I see it as a moral victory and believe that we can still take 4th spot.

Big test for coach and players this

Class. Why do you take the bait. Ignore me, it will be far more effective.

yeah you're right.... but it's hard though !!!!

If we keep it tight through the middle then, for me, the majority of Salford's plans will go out the window.

Come on, Leigh.

Biggest match of the season so far this!

Jog on idiot

Ant every match we play now gets more important,and it will get harder with more pressure every week, if we play like we all know we can play then I'm expecting a Leigh win,if we don't then Salford will exploit this.Everyone is saying how poor Bradford are , not me the Bulls played bad yesterday I agree ,but they have 2 points in the bag and a better points difference, I think points difference will matter at the end of the 8's, so we must be very aware of this ,I'm sure Rowls realises this.
I can't wait for today should be a cracker , not the end of the world if we lose, but we need 4 wins from the remaining 6 games ,cmon you Leythers.

Good luck for today, hope your boys have learned from the first game and control the game for the full 80 and get a win on the board
