The Conga just before the end was awesome, well done to the fans who took the defeat on the chin and still had a laugh.

Fantastic win.

Our defence last night was as good as I can remember from a Leigh team. We kept the offloads from their forwards to a minimum and took their attacking options away from them.

our kicking game was strong for the first time this season, forced a few drop outs and made hudds start plenty of sets close to their own line.

I think Tickle and Vea both did 80 minutes(?) Tickle MOM for me.

Far from a perfect performance but the signs are encouraging, especially when you think of the players we are missing

Last night convinced me that we are a Super League team.

On a low note after the game I always stand over the tunnel and clap the players off the field and I noticed Martin Ridyard stood ther watching the boys going to the north stand and coming round. I felt sorry for him. The look on his face said to me how much he is missing that adulation from the fans and how much it means to the players to do it. He looked a bit sad to me. What do we do though if the half back partnership is going well? I know you can't put sentiment over results but I sort of miss him. I'm sure there will be a time when he will get another chance to shine.

I am sure Riddy will keep working hard to get a place in the 17. He did it last year when things weren't going well for him and he'll do it again.

Re: Huddersfield (Home) : Sat Mar 11, 2017 11:47 am  

I'm sure Riddy will get a game soon, it was evident from the first match that he wasn't fit enough and possibly carrying a knock, Reynolds has started off really well and will not give up his place lightly.

WWatching him warming up before the match he looked a lot trimmer. I'm sure he'll be fit and ready to do a good job when needed. We'll probably need or miss his goal kicking at some stage this season.
