Professional and ruthless with a sprinkle of magic from the backs. Glad I got my Grand Final tickets last week too and the team did the job we know they are capable of.

redvee is worth a read right now, quite amusing regarding our game and the GF

Pretty special performance that. You know if this side is on within a couple of minutes and all the nerves of playing Leigh quickly disappeared. The intensity and concentration was through the roof from 1-13 in those early stages and they never looked back.

Really pleased for Sam Walters. He probably won't play next week but played a huge part in us getting there. Nsemba was great, French is half rugby player, half magician and Jai Field is the best full back in this competition. He's not had the best season of all the fullbacks but he's the best when you need him to be.

Well done lads. More or less, a perfect performance.

Back home, four tickets for next week in the bag.

Should be a cracking game and a great advert for Rugby League.

Do the RFL get the play-off cash ?
Nice bonus to the coffers if we get it.

Yes but not the hospitality money.

Numerous posters keep referring to this bang average Wigan side.

Yet their 4 in a row side struggled to beat us in the Covid GF and this side is a million times better than that one. so thry must have been a below average side that won 4 in a row ???

Anyone know why Dupree got a yellow card?

I'm assuming but he was the closest Wigan player to the ball as it ran dead so maybe he stopped Leigh getting a quick tap restart?

I wouldn't worry about the Red Vee boys tonight. They're going to be hurting watching a performance like that. They got physically dominated by that Leigh side 2 weeks ago, so if they're not impressed with another side battering them 38-0, I wouldn't take them too seriously.

Wigan may or may not win next week but it's a very very good side and it's a young side, that won't be going anywhere over the next few seasons, so it's up to Saints to firstly catch up to Leigh and then see how they get on against this Wigan side.

Re: Leigh it is : Sat Oct 05, 2024 10:55 pm  

Leigh were very poor today ,and deserved absolutely nothing. There's no beating about the bush here, Leigh never gave a semi final performance tonight to even get anywhere close to Wigan. I'm quite happy for this, so long as we can bring ourselves up to there level next season, and try to challenge for that top prize.

Fair enough, Cokey; you've had a good season, and last season wasn't too shabby either. Now you have to rebuild.
