One word.

Dominant.

Great result.
I honestly believe that this team will get better still over the second half of the season.
Well done everyone at the club.

We were physically dominant across the park, and I don’t think there’s anything Featherstone can do about that. We wore them down and you could see how tired they were in the second half.

Fix a few discipline issues and I think we win even more easily.

Also want to say how proud I am of the noise our fans made today. The travelling Leythers were magnificent

Second half, yes. Pleased for everyone and especially Ipape & Beaumont (the latter of which noticeably took very much a back seat today).

National Anthem was embarassing! After that the day improved.

Did you manage to get a stream, Vanners?

Can we keep Ipappe??

I think we dominated yardage and territory in the first half, tiring Featherstone and reaped the rewards second half.

Big 2nd half display today. Becoming a bit of a recurring theme. Discipline still needs some work, put us under pressure in the first half, but once sorted we were dominant.
Am beginning to think that Ipape is unplayable when he is in the mood and would like to see us tie him down for next year. Still think Fev have more to give. They made lots of mistakes particularly second half which allowed us to build pressure, but in the round those evened out over the course of the game.
Am very optimistic for the rest of the season. We ultimately looked fairly comfortable and our defence was absolutely top notch again.

I found a very choppy feed that was so frustrating I gave up and listened to a stream of the radio commentary.
2-3 SL games per week and 4 NRL game per week are live here, but the two games today were not on
Ah well, such is life and we won, so today was a good day
The moment I heard Ipape announced I knew we had a game changer. He has not disappointed.
The combination of Ferguson and Aekins is also going to haunt many teams from here in.
Well done to everyone at the club and chuffed for Derek.

The juggernaut Leigh pack outplayed Fev in every department and perfectly executed the game plan with a strong desire and tough physicality.

Much credit due to Derek for enabling such a strong squad and coaching staff.

With retention we have the start of a sustainable Superleague squad.
