Nope, sorry.
Seriously though, i've given my opinion on the game today and some of you don't agree. I'm fine with that, no problems here.
As i said earlier, i do hope you go well this year. You'll do better than last year on the basis of today compared to last year, where i thought you'd struggle after that game and that IM had a big job on his hands.
This isn't a backtrack either. I stand by what i said earlier.

I'm gracious in both victory and defeat, when it's merited.

| Bloody hell Gaz, how did you find your way down here?!
Wire were in far from top gear, but we conceded more than a couple soft tries off the back of individual errors or poor decisions - get these ironed out and we'll be a force to reckon with, I say.

Mornin' Matthew. Usually take a look at the oppo's pages after a game - get a broader view of proceedings etc.
As i said previously, were we average. Smith's comments seem to suggest so too. Lots of blowing out cobwebs and working on combinations etc.
As for your boys, there was enough to suggest you do well this season. You've already said what needs to happen in terms of ironing out the little errors and maybe a little more composure, should see you right.
Good luck!

| Well I am not so sure about your team being average. From my point of view as a Leyther I thought our pack gave as good as they got and it was your pacy backs that gave your lads a flattering scoreline.
Salary cap says it all. Whatever we are a much more polished team and squad than last season.
A good game and good following from Wire too.

No it's certainly not the Worldwide Fund for Nature, but, perhaps you meant to say 'This is not WWE' ( World Wrestling Entertainment)?

| Morning Leythers.
Good work out for both sides yesterday, both sides appearing to be a little out on their timing, but I feel compelled to say how structured and organised you guys looked. The lines of running in tandem with the numbers running them, was quite impressive. In tandem with what I thought was good defence, all bodes well for the coming season.
Good luck.

| Pretty dull game tbh and the scoreline flattered us really, we were very ordinary. You looked better than last year which, tbh was men against boys and you've probably seen enough to suggest you should be in the top 4 in your division.
Personally though I think Fev and Fax are still much better sides.
The players you've brought in look better than those that have left and so, you'll go okay.
As for Atkins' 'obstruction'. I think the blokes been taking lessons of Christiano Ronaldo with a dive like that. He knew he was getting nowhere near and although there may have been ever so slight contact, Atkins thought he'd show us his rendition of Swan Lake.

| As long as Leigh are in a different league to us they'll always be my 2nd team hope you guys do well this season. As for Gaz we are a fully professional club working at the max salary cap against a team in the lower leagues with a budget not even half of ours, show some humility, the result was never really in question from either set of fans. I apologise on behalf of wire fans, good luck and make sure you smash Widnes.

Agreed.
By the way, they wouldn't be 'country miles' would they?

| No doubt Wire the better team some class players , but the scoreline did flatter them , i was happy with the Leigh performance ,and feel things are much better than last season, maybe a bit of fine tuning needed but BASIL knows what he is doing , the future is bright.

Just as a matter of interest how many times have you watched Fax and Fev this season ? And what do you think of their squads and in particular their strength in depth ? A Wire fan I was chatting to yesterday did not think Warrington had much in that regard when I suggested your starting 17 yesterday should finish in the top 3 of Non Relegation League.

| Thought we played well in patches and certainly matched up well in the forwards. Warrington don't look that big an outfit to be honest.
A couple of the Warrington tries were dubious to say the least but overall I was quite happy with us. It's the first time I've seen young Ellis and I thought he struggled and his kicking game was quite poor. Sure he'll improve though

| I agree with Gaz e , I thought Wire were poor really and never got going , which quite obviously was because Leigh didn't let them get going , especially in the forwards , just as Tony Smith stated after the game

I havent seen them this season and obviously as every side has made changes, unless they've declined in standards I dont think you look as good as they did last year. Time will tell.

Not at all feel free to comment, but you've completely missed my point both in response to my comment, and my original post on this thread.
