If we win by 16 or more I will be pleasantly surprised.

Can i have a bet Ian and you give me -16? Swinton and Oldham beat the same teams that Toulouse have beaten so far this season by more last year.....

Ste ,I'm expecting a hard game my 16 point prediction also said I would be pleasantly surprised if we get more,in other words I want us to win by more than 16.The way my tipping is going we may well do so, I'm currently watching the Racing ,at Newmarket and Cheltenham, and not doing well here also,I will decline your offer, as I want us go win by a big margin.

No worries pal, not seen any racing today. Anything good gone in?

Re: Toulouse v Leigh R5 CC : Thu Apr 14, 2016 3:06 pm  

Leigh 19 man squad:

Worthington, Higson, Kay, Ridyard, Weston, Spencer, Pownall, Paterson, Maitua, Acton, Higham, Emmitt, Hopkins, Hock, Armstrong, Foster, Harper, Reynolds, Whiting

No Lee Smith in the team. Must be injured? Pownall back after a few weeks out injured so I guess he will be playing at Full Back.

Still no Moimoi, Hansen, Chase or Tonga.

No Liam Hood, Lewis Foster back into the 19.

Whiting must have been given the all clear to play in the Cup matches now he is staying for the rest of the year which is a nice bonus!

I'd go with:

Pownall
Higson
Worthington
Armstrong
Kay
Ridyard
Reynolds
Emmitt
Higham
Weston
Hock
Maitua
Paterson

Bench:
Foster
Hopkins
Acton
Whiting

I've backed 2 winners up to now Jadaayil in the first at Newmarket and Magical Memory in the 3.55 at Newmarket, both 3-1 ,I've backed a couple of Nick Henderson at Cheltenham but they finished nowhere,at the moment I'm losing but not much, I've got Mutamakkin and Yattwee in the last 2 races at Newmarket.Foundation has just been beaten in the Craven Stakes but it was odds on.

Don't see why. Our pack is far superior to theirs and so are our backs. R u putting your reasoning down to the travelling time or the food Charlie ?

I agree the aggressive defence of our forwards is something the Toulouse players will not have experienced so far. They have been scoring from very early on in matches and stopping this is crucial to put them off their stride. This will be a very tough match and I think the score will be very close.

They struggled against WB Hornets in heavy going only 20-14 with 10 mins to go. Besides the quick full back and wingers they have 3 French and Tonga internationals. TO were showing video clips of Leigh players all week including Gaz giving Bentley a bit of extra attention at PTB in World Cup. Their Twitter feed will be giving a running report @TOXIII
