Apart from the first set where we put the ball down early the completion rate was 100% better and as a result we had some good field position and pressure as reflected on the scoreboard.
Johnston made a difference and asked questions we haven’t been asking.
Good games by all across the park and a big team effort, the lads had to stand up and be counted today and they did.

A very enjoyable afternoon at the Shay for a change. We were in control of the game from the off. Two of Leigh’s try’s cam from a ball squirting out and could not do much about that and a rather awful kick near their line. It should have been drilled on the ground. I think if those two incidents had not happened Leigh would have only had 6 points.
Everyone played their part today although I realy don’t think Kay adds much to us (sorry to Kay fans). It was a fantastic performance today up the fax

Charlie is right about one thing - that Hutchison is very average for Leigh. I think something needed to change to get a result today, and Grady and Johnston coming back in made all the difference. JWH added some nice touches from fullback. Not biggest fan of Johnston but he has the X-factor that when it works, it works really well - certainly proved me wrong today. Let's hope we can take a similar performance to Toulouse. Win that and we're really back in the mix.

How dare you criticize Hutchinson, he's played 4 games in the NRL....he's quality !

Wow what a great effort today I have to admit I did not see that coming, yes Leigh are out of sorts but we dominated them from first minute to last and gave them 2 tries.
Well done to RM for changing things around bringing in Johnno and switching Will Sharp and James Woodburn-Hall around, also having Grady back and the Cas lad didn't let us down.

Re: Leigh game. : Sun Mar 11, 2018 11:18 pm  

Excellent Team performance but not quite sure why Sharpe was on the wing after being our form player at Fullback didn't think Springer looked any better than some of our reserve Fwds just getting him fit for Cas

Re: Leigh game. : Sun Mar 11, 2018 11:24 pm  

I thought JWH at FB and WS on the wing worked Ok. Springer was a bit too keen, and contrary to my earlier thoughts needs some time with the team if he plays again with us. He's a big unit and could be awesome if he learns how to fit in.
