I can't - I'm a leyther. We always react to niggle from the opposition

As I said, even allowing for any sort of "momentum", it was a forward pass. I was in line with it, and the direction from the player passing the ball was forward.

Apart from the momentum rule, most refs miss a forward pass because they are the the simpletons.

HA HA Good man.

I'd argue that if Leigh was so indisciplined week in week out that in a game like RL it would be impossible to go on a 24 game winning run......

If it was a a crash ball then I'd be inclined to agree, but I think the benefit of the doubt has to be given with a cut out pass such as today, thrown on the run on a breezy day.

Hard to argue that discipline has been acceptable the last few weeks though

LOL - you were playing INTO the breeze at the time!

It's not been week-in-week-out ... It's been creeping up on us gradually since Salford encounter I'd say.

Needs addressing soon though otherwise we can kiss our chances of SL bye bye

Don't think it was blowing in any particular direction to be fair.

Either way it doesn't get looked at by an RFL panel. Ref gave it, it stands, end of

If it was forward, it'll make up for the 2 legit' ones we should have had last week at Dews!

I'm not sure,
The losses column still show 0 for Leigh despite all this so called indisciplined play and I do believe the opposition have suffered the same consequences from indiscipline when we have played them (and in some cases afterwards when video footage has been reviewed by the RFL).

Its Rugby League Ant...Not Netball..They come with a game plan they leave knowing the game plan didn't work.

Good point ant.

How many penalty counts have we won this season? We are winning despite poor discipline. The possession we've had the last few games is a cause for concern. If we give Bradford, and probably Fev, the same we will come unstuck

Atomic, thanks for clearing that up, mate!

I know RL, and it's [ihard[/i - but [ifair [/imost weeks. That's why most fans watch it - because it's as honest as sport comes these days.

But Leigh have been poor, discipline-wise, lately. There is no getting away from that.

Fans that think we don't have discipline issues, at present, are kidding themselves.

It wasn't[i all [/iHalifax today either. Both teams were as bad as each other.

Different scenarios,as was today.You play each game as it comes,not for what will be or has been.

We all own those Leigh blinkers atomic. Some of us can however take them off occasionally

Said earlier in the thread Leigh need to ignore the off the ball cheap stuff some clubs use as a means of levelling the game out, but its easier said than done.
The fact though that for all the talk of poor discipline play by Leigh its other teams players who have taken more bans than our own when in front of the RFL!
Lets not forget Halifax also had players carded today....

Ive no idea, I just shout forward at every chance. It was ingrained in to me at a very young age from trips to St Helens.

I have just watched Paul Rowleys interview on LCTV,interestingly the niggle started before the match had even started.

Apparently Halifax tried to trample through our warm up,to which in PR's words we sent them packing,a tactic they tried in the game at their place,they came for a fight,they got one,and now their fans are crying about how rough and dirty Leigh are!

What have you seen that makes you think we will handle niggles and cheap shots from Bradford any differently to how we handled it today?

Seemed to be a lot of hot air coming from the Leigh stand.

Yeh, But it's now cold air coming from the fax camp.
