Me too.

It's not about there performances against us, it's about performing consistently over 7 weeks to achieve the goal - which they did and we didn't, and I expect the same this year to Toronto's loss

While we all want to talk about Widnes in Super League let us.

Widnes “should” have been the games which hauled us out of the mess but what did we see? Widnes played rugby the correct way. They scored their pints and then did what all successful teams do. They kicked us to death. The put the ball out on 10 meters and basically said if you’re going to score then go for it but you’re going the full length.

That didn’t help by having one of the worst wingers imaginable in Dawson.

Super League was brilliant for the ride. But we had a coach who wa spur of his depth who only survived because he got us promoted. A lot of fans wouldn’t have a word said about him because he led us to the promised land. He’s an absolute chancer who now isn’t coaching rugby league.

Funny. If he was that good he’d be an assistant somewhere or trying to salvage his name.

Bet everyone who was happy Rowley left would have him back now.

Some of the best rugby I’ve seen at Leigh. Probably only topped by Milward.

Wonder whether we’ll ever know what happened with him.

Hands up those who want Rowley Back

No,000,000

Like the man or not his style of play was excellent. I’m not bothered about what he’s like off the pitch. He got Leigh winning matches playing exciting rugby.

And failed when it mattered , probably due to arrogance

Plan A - good - expansive.
Plan B - None
Plan C - None

(Just watch the Toronto v Warrington game)

Would not surprise me If Toronto bottle it, just like we did !

I cannot see Widnes being in trouble because they are a better team than their position.

Leeds on the other hand ?...... Mmm, Interesting that one !

Don't think anyone will trouble Leeds / Hull KR, 1 & 2 for me.

Salford, Widnes and Toronto, 3,4 & 5 - it depends on what order ???

Toronto are going to struggle, unless they can play their home games at Skolars

Thing is when teams go to Toronto they'll go on the Thurs were as Toronto will fly back there probably on the Mon so it will give them and extra 4 days to get over the travel and it'll be the same when they come back here theyll fly back on the mon because all they players have house's here

Whatever your opinion of Rowley, he's controlled the Championship in 2018 down to the very last game. I'll be very surprised if Toronto are not in SL in 2019.

I utterly reject the concept of N. American teams in British RL. (and French ones for that matter) That said, Toronto now deserve a crack at SL, having jumped through all the playing hoops they were asked to jump through.

One or two hoops were considerably larger than usual.

And if further proof is still required about Rowley, then I suggest they watch the second half of our 2015 opening middle 8s game v Hull Kingston Rovers. We were 24.6 up.

At least the expansive Rugby League being played in our own half was enjoyable for some on our way to inevitable defeat.

40 yard killer passes to Armstrong and Kay under our own posts, .... landing in touch.

Remember that game well > it was a killer and we were playing to the North Stand 2nd half.

Didn't Lee Smith get the deciding drop goal

We were playing towards the North Stand, but Lee Smith hit the winning DG,again in front of the North Stand, for Wakefield.

We were 16-6 up at one stage in that game also. It proved to be our third straight middle 8s loss, in part due to Rowleys tactical ineptitude to switch from plan A.

A pattern is developing.

The most frightening thing about the above is:

Its nearly 3 years ago - where did those years go?

Stop bleeding dwelling!

I am very sorry Sir, My posts do not appear to meet your approval.

Perhaps you can provide a list of Leigh Rugby topics that I can or can not write about on this forum, in order to then meet your approval.

Or you could actually just go and bugger right off couldn't you ?

Calm down sir.

Nowt like leigh fans to ignore the truth & make up fudge , the team was full of injuries burnt out due to cup run & that is a fact but you carry on with your delusional posts
