Discipline - It was terrible yesterday, we put ourselves under loads of pressure by doing energy sapping repeat tackle sets.

Free style play - It doesn't work in the big games! You need to build pressure slowly and do the little things right, and earn the right to be in the field position you're in.

Kicking game - We didn't build any pressure what so ever, Purtell showed Brierley and Reynolds up (he had a fantastic kicking game).

You could tell after 70 minutes we were nackered after all the tackling we'd been doing, due to Bradfords good simple forward orientated tactics.

I think we need to change our 'philosophy,' as it works against Dewsbury and Batley, but when you play the big boys you need to play smart.

What do you think?

Sort of says it all..A recognized /winger playing stand off.

He was actually magnificent yesterday. MOTM by a mile.

I'd forgotten how good he can be. He hasnt been as consistent this year. Glad he got a new contract.
Our new backs have been useful.

I wonder why when everyone else can see your points and it was obvious after the first match in the qualifiers, it never occurred to your coach and players?

Mooky it's a mystery to me why you are not on the Coaching Staff.

He could not have done worse than the present bunch. At least he would have recognised the problems.

Anyone could be a candidate if Rowley gets sacked!!!

Karl Harrison has been a thorne in Leigh's back since hes been coaching!!! I wonder if he'd ever come to us? Probably not, I don't think he move from Yorkshire to coach Leigh. Although, he did coach Salford......

Brierley absolutely non existent like he has been for the majority of the qualifying 8 games. We will get a good thumping at Widnes too as we seem a team which us drained. Mote quality and less personally please next season!

Good grief, are you for real?

What's your thoughts on John Kear or lysten Harris mookachaka?

What about PR just continuing? END OF.

Our 'Philosophy' has worked against Bradford previously when it mattered, Wakefield and Salford will tell you the same!
We have missed Penky's go forward more than anything else and he along with Barlow and Ridyard have carved teams apart!
Allowing for Bradford's missing personnel on Saturday, Penky, Barlow, Ridyard, Worthington and Hopkins would have tipped the balance for us, just has they did on day one!
Strange how all of a sudden our style of play is wrong!

You just don't understand do you, we were not allowed to play, "our style of play" against better opposition in the Qualifiers.

apart from the first half vs KR, vs Wakey, back to back tries vs Salford and 50points past Sheffield.

Are you in denial, we didn't qualify and I wouldn't class Sheffield as better opposition?

No mate just pointing we have and can play 'our style of play' in the 8's..

as for sheffield funny how not one other team can score 50 past them??

Not that funny because Salford scored 53.

Good to see you have finally realised, Kear or Harris Reffy?

Realised what?

make that 2 teams then...

OK.

My spin on things are quite simple. We have never had field position and have constantly losst the belief to attack the opposition due to the belief of making a substantial break to score a try. We have completely lost the dynamics to put on a move and confidence to execute. Have teams twigged onto this? Of course they have, and we become a one trucj pony.. There is no plan B over than playing down the middle. Result? elimination and good luck to Bradford who made us look ordinary without cracking any pots. In fact, I thought we were shocking!

Good post that.

Well it is not in our Dna that's for sure. That 1st half v HKR should have been maintained throughout but was not. The 2nd half showed how unfit and vulnerable defensively we are as a team. This was the mindset of the team then vanquished throughout as alot of belief had been shoved down their throats. Structure? Non existent. You either have it or you don't. Structure gives you stability which tells me that we have to think twice coming into certain games. I have enjoyed the season and the unpredictable Rugby we used to play.Hull Kr put stop to that and when confidence and arrogance starts to decline, there is no turning back. We need more dynamics. Interesting 6 months ahead because some of our perceived world beaters in a little pond will leave!! Cash in while we can because they are no Woody.!!
