Slammin Sam has really changed us I see! At least he's found a good balance between professional and social relationship with the team eh.

I ll reserve judgement with this rabble until Catalan away and hull at home... friendlies mean jack..

Re: Leigh preseason friendly : Sat Feb 03, 2024 8:06 pm  

Result doesn’t surprise me, friendly or not, Leigh have a better squad than us.

Re: Leigh preseason friendly : Sat Feb 03, 2024 8:07 pm  

We seem to have picked up a few more injuries.

Re: Leigh preseason friendly : Sat Feb 03, 2024 8:13 pm  

Ill discipline, errors at the play the ball, back chatting to the ref. Have the players learnt nothing? They are either pig thick or taking the mickey. I was hoping for a clear change in attitude but it seems from the commentary we have picked up from where we left off.

We learned nothing, same passive defence same disjointed half back pairing. Yes a preseason friendly but nothing was new. Again Max Wood was the stand out, Harrison looked good, Dudson done more in this game than he did all last year.

Last year we won the pre season game against leigh. I will take next season being as good as their's last year.

I thought Dudson looked good against Widnes aswell, looked faster and fitter than last year, hopefully it continues.
How did Musgrove and Fitzgibbon do? I heard Fitz got injured the first half?

Seeing your sets out, basics in rugby league, today Warrington didn’t do it in parts and when they coffed it up in was in their 30, too much of a leg up for Leigh I’m afraid , but only a friendly, move on to Catalans.

12-6 at half time is probably the best indicator. After that it was a heavily young Wire side in the second 40 - I don’t think I’ve seen a final pre season game with fewer first team minutes…

Leigh looked good, Moylan looked lively. My worry for them would be what’s behind their top 19, they did ok with injury last year, they’ll need to do the same again…
