Am I missing something.
I don’t seem to be able to find the button for live LCTV commentary.

Found live commentary on pulse 2 radio stream.
Sounds a good game but I’m hearing us shoot ourselves in the foot with some penalties for holding down and flops when we have Bradford pinned down near their own line. Jakes name came up twice at least for that already.
Seems we were the better team in the second 20 so cut out the silly stuff and a bit of calm near their line and we should take this. Keep giving Bradford pressure release yards and ball and they will make us pay.

Hmm. 2 in the bin and heavens knows how many penalties given away already in the 2nd. John Duffy must be losing his hair right now. I am

Sounds woeful...

I think we will have some very frustrated supporters who traveled over the hills today. Sounds like we lost the game on our own lack of discipline and errors. Commentary said both were in double figures.
Over to you John Duffy. That cannot happen again if we are to have any chance of a run at the top 4.

Duffy say's he takes responsibility for today,but hey ho we are still 5th. let's just keep positive,it's not theend ert world.

Trouble is Derek, we are just an average side at the moment,take away the Saints contingent and we are very thin on the ground.
Josh Woods doesn’t convince me,and Pownall is a liability, we have to play Widnes 3 times this season which will be very hard.We have just beaten Swinton and Rochdale 2 of the weakest sides in the Comp, and think we are a good team.That 5th spot is between Fev , Fax , and us.
We need a couple of bodies on board yet.

Ian i totally agree mate,however,who ever expected us to be competing at the top end of the table at the beginning of the season? But you're right ,we do need to add a few more bodies soon,and see where we can go. This season is about sustaining our place in the championship,and trying to compete for bigger things next season.

Don’t worry Corey, I’m a glass half full kind of bloke. I didn’t expect to be saying we lost games against the better teams due to our own errors and lack of discipline this season, so that at least is a positive. We do need a few more players to compete at the top end for sure as the season gets on and we inevitably lose the better saints players.
Pownal needs a good talking to and short of numbers or not needs to know that he has to shut-up or be replaced on the field.
The lads and JD have my full support, but to keep bums on seats they will have to be smarter than it sounded they were today.

Agreed VL.

Derek,with every post folk keep saying nobody expected us to be challenging for a top 5 spot,after last season,and I was one of those people.

However, since those dark November and December days, we have added Hood,Emmitt, and the Saints lads to our Squad,making it a decent looking Squad, yeah we need a couple more bodies, but take Toronto and Toulouse out of the equation,and the next maybe 8 teams are all on a similar footing.We could benefit from the misfortune of Widnes , but we have to play them 3 times this season.
I forecast a Bulls win on the Prediction Comp, but after looking at both teams 17 players, I really expected a Leigh win.We didn’t score in the second half and got caned about 9 -2 on the penalty count, you can’t score with no ball.

Next week will be the acid test ,with no DRs available, could be a blessing to lose to Sheff.

Quite Ian. If we were done 9 - 2 on the penalty count in the 2nd half,then something is just baffling here. We coasted to a 30 - 0 lead last week then the penalties came in abundance and the game went sour(and TBH our discipline has been good so far this season). If we have suddenly just become a terrible indiscipline team all of a sudden,then i'm not condoning or defending it,but i'm scratching mi yed as to why. I'm sure some of the pens are justified,but if there were 20 odd in the game today, summats not reet.

After an excellent first half, against the strong wind, we completely blew it, in the second half. With the (weather) advantage we hadf, the last thing we needed, was two in the bin, within five minutes. The stream of penalties we conceded, was suicidal and, on the rare occasions we got hold of the ball, we promptly coughed it up again. Two of Bradford's second half tries, came directly as a result of us losing the ball, firstly right on their line, and then 20 metres out. In each case, the player picking up the loose ball, scored.

No complaints - the better team over 80 minutes, were the deserved winners, yet I feel we can beat them.

Finally, could someone please advise me on the ruling about the player lying behind the ptb? We were constantly penalised for it, yet Bradford weren't. I completely fail to see how Adamson could clear the area, when he was out prone! This ruling really needs sorting. That said, we were completely the architects of our own downfall - and Bradford gained in confidence, with the glut of second half possession, and were good value for their win.

Bradford will not get an easier 40 minutes than that 2nd half, till they play Rochdale at Odsal.

Don't know who you're number 11 is but very good player carrys the ball well and great offloads

Toby Adamson. Signed him with his brother Luke, from Rochdale. I have also been impressed with him so far. He consistently does 80 minutes, and has probably been our (i.e. excluding D/R) outstanding player, to date.

Couldn't find it either , VL.

Speed essential 11. The play-the-ball must be performed as quickly as possible. Any player who intentionally delays the bringing of the ball into play shall be penalised.

There appeared to be a lot of subjectivity on the part of the ref. I know there is always a degree of interpretation on the ref's part, but those two clear examples on Sunday. (i.e. the injured Bradford lad pointed out by the Leigh players, and the ref rightly stopped the game. Then Adamson, who was also clearly injured, but penalised when he didn't roll away. He then required lengthy treatment before he could resume.) Like all other decisions, consistency is required.

I didn't go on Sunday however, once again we seem to have fallen foul of the officials! No doubt there were some puzzling decisions because Tom Grant always seems to conjure those up!
We have had four completely different teams over the past four years and, four different Coaches however, we still appear to be committing more offences than our opponents!

Both sides seemed to incur his wrath on Sunday but we seemed to take it in turns. To be fair both sides were standing offside all day and lying in the ruck or trying to milk a penalty at the PTB. He had a job on trying to keep the game flowing with that going on. There were some baffling decisions but you always get a couple.

There is a picture on the Leigh Facebook page of Jonny Pownall catching the Bradford penalty that he was binned for. Hes not even close to being in touch, you have to question what the linesman has seen?

No wonder Jonny was annoyed (I know he should have kept his mouth shut)

I have just captured the moment JP catches the ball here.

Clearly well inside the line and Bradford scored the next set I think. Anyway we lost.
