I had the commentary going loud and clear, enjoying Riddy and the scoreline. It sounded like we were the better team but got caught napping a couple time for their tries.
Makes our run in now a little harder to replay the game unfortunately.

At last a sensible decision from the RFL the game to be resumed at 3 tomorrow with score at 16-12 with 32 minutes left.

What can’t agree with Derek is with his praising of the LSV management on dealing with the situation. What we got for over an hour was one barely decipherable message saying they are dealing with the situation, and the two short messages that could not be heard properly and were inaudible. Then to put the tin hat on things we the had loudest musical drivel to drown out the boos coming from the patient crowd. Amazing how the musical entertainment is clear as a bell while the announcements can’t be deciphered!!

The power failure highlighted how poor the sound system is. We were literally left in the dark by minimal announcements that were garbled nonsense.

STOP PRESS:

NEVER HITHERTO SEEN OUTBREAK OF COMMON SENSE AT RFL.

Nigel Wood & Ralph Rimmer declined to give comment as they are still searching for the dummies that they spat out on hearing the decision.

Two trips out over the weekend, I can get excited about attending another game. It is going to be 32 minutes with both teams going hammer and tongues because they do not need conserve energy for a 2nd half.

A bit of history in the making, no doubt Mike Latham is writing it up as we speak.

Not sure this 30 min session is going to be in our favour to win this game - it’s basically now 2 teams giving there all, no real need for interchanges. Over 80 mins reckon we have too much for Hudds, despite it being close I never thought we were in danger of losing now I reckon it’s 50/50.

Appreciate it’s also about fitness and recovery time for the saints game as well but beat Hudds and Wakey and we finish 4th pretty much nailed on - I reckon we’d have been as well doing the 80 tomorrow.

4pts and 5 tackles on their 20, I will take that. Statistically I believe Leigh (2nd) score more in the 1st Quarter, meaning we like to come out of the traps early. It should be high octane stuff.

I,d have to say this favours Leigh , Leigh played at a pace that Huddersfield didn't like and even though the score didn't reflect it I'd say we dominated in that opening 30 .Also plus points as well being they lost hill so possibly a fair chunk of go forward missing for them , we start the game with the ball in a good spot and even with asiata off the field that's ok he can come on after the opening few minutes of absolute frenzy

Job done.
Well done to the boys under difficult circumstances. The first set a subsequent set did not lead to a score, but they kept up the pressure and got the job done. Two points but more importantly turned over a form team and back in a winning mind set.
