Mixed feelings for our players if we did go on and win the next three. Three quarters of them would probably have to look for another club. And while the board would outwardly encourage victories, I'm not sure there's the appetite for SL membership just yet.
Recovery this week will be hard. While Moi Moi will be getting a rub down from Parky Pig, Dane Manning will be up a ladder cleaning windows.
Great season this though. That feeling yesterday at about twenty past four when you realise there wasn't enough time for Leigh to comeback and win was sweet. Massive effort from Fax. Massive effort from determined, honest players.
Hi Rich.
Bet you enjoyed yesterday, eh? Well done to your boys on a massive performance.
A couple of points from your post:-
I'd realised there was no chance of a Leigh comeback after about 30 minutes! The only reason we had a 'good' fifteen minutes at the start of the second half, was that your boys + the ref, gave us total possession during that spell. Even then, we looked unlikely to score many. As soon as you got the ball back, it was game over. That's the third really uncomfortable game you have given us, and you probably should have won the one at LSV. Therefore, your victory shouldn't have come as a surprise to anyone from Leigh. What was a surprise (and severe disappointment) to me, was the manner of our capitulation - dominated from beginning to end.
And secondly, you wouldn't really expect Fui to go up a ladder, would you?
As a serious note there, he only seems capable of putting in one, maybe two, spells of fifteen minutes. And that just doesn't cut it, not when you compare it with the 70/75 minutes that Mitch Cahalane puts in, at a consistently high level of performance.
Anyway, once again, well done on a thoroughly deserved win. You need to be very careful in your next two (three) games, or your squad may get broken up. Still, I can think of a good home for some of them!!
