Soft tries given away in the first half followed by a Spirited second half.
Enjoyed that but don't we make things difficult.

Fair play to them they turned that round and I wouldn't have put a penny on that at half time. But I have to say the way we go absent for periods of matches remains alarming. But well done in the end.

unlucky

You're an absolute joke.

very fair minded post and thanks. Yes I would agree that probably we edged the tight calls fro Mr Campbell but let me tell you he owes us quite a few! He's cost us at least 2 games I can bring to mind. Personally, I thought BJB was short but he was tackled in the air and would have had a yard more and definitely scored so I would have been arguing for a pen try if it hadn't been given...probably balanced the decision to about right perhaps. Still, it was a cracking match and Leigh are a very good side. Perhaps a lack of SL experience in one or 2 at the end there cost you the game but as they learn I see you having a very good season

Correct.

Leigh (we) were dire 2nd half, and the Referee DID NOT help us one bit. Although having said that, he's not the reason we lost the 2nd half 18-0

Got out of jail there but we really have to start putting it together for the full 80. We won't keep getting away with it.

He didn't keep dropping the ball.
That was what stopped Leigh winning.

Never mind there's always next week

but if Hock plays probably the same outcome

Don't we! Even in the last 10; we go for 2 when we should have killed the game off with Leigh on the ropes. We kick for touch with 3 to go when we should have gone for 2. We have em pinned on their own line with 55 secs on the clock and give a stupid pen away. It is a good job they coughed the ball up 3 x near our line and kicked brainlessly on the 2nd tackle co our line defence looked wobbly all night. We controlled the ball better and kicked better 2nd half so it didn't get exposed so much

So why mention it

That's right. Don't forget to take Mr Campbell with you to France next week.



But fair play to you guys 2nd half.

Both of the forward pass decisions against Leigh were absolutely correct, the one he got wrong was the first try which he didn't see but was forward from Hock.

Because it's a forum discussing tonight's game.

We didn't keep 'dropping the ball'...we just weren't making many yards, and the 'offloads' in the tackle stopped. Plus point: We only lost by 4, Negative Point: We looked clueless 2nd half. (like we were at Wigan for the whole game, never came close to scoring a try)

How I love you lot when you've lost to the little old Wakefield

Leigh's forwards ran harder, straighter and stronger in the first half and I thought we would get pumped in the second half but they blew up and must admit, Hock trying to be the ball playing forward was not one of his best ideas.
Thought a big turning point could have been when Fifita pirouetted into touch on the first tackle just after we had scored.

Another win from coming behind. Massive win after what was a dismal first 40 - talk about a game of two halfs.

Obviously happy with the win however there is still lots to work on.

Hadley at hooker? Someone care to explain? He's a solid hardworking second rower who runs some good lines. Why change that?

I actually thought it worked quite well, I'm not sure why but it did.

Because if any team is THAT good, the Ref is irrelevant. I'm being gracious in a narrow defeat, and in a game where at half time I thought we would win. Pleased for my mate Wildthing...but that's about as far as it goes. Looks like our home form will decide on where we finish in the league table.....

It absolutely didn't work. I don't know what you were watching but he was poor at passing and poor defending. A risk that failed, bring back Scott Moore.

Hadley didn't work at hooker, summed up in the first half with his shocking pass from acting half to Williams.
He's a wide running second row but he's played in an unfamiliar position when asked, in a team that he's only been with a couple of weeks.
So to play him at hooker was folly.

Other than a greater enthusiasm for playing the game in the second half I though KeegannHirst made a significant impact when he came on... big strong mobile ... dented the defensive line and won most of his wrestling matches in the tackle


A fine debut I felt!

Half way house for me... our game fell apart when Wood came on and only picked up with Finn at Hooker
