Painful to watch today.
First few tries were directly from individual players. Leigh didn't have to try hard.
Atoni a complete waste of time and came off injured so unlikely to be playing for a while.
Proctor probably had his best game. Played about 60 minutes. Made a lot of big tackles. If we are going to play him he needs to play second row for at least part of the game.
Battye got stuck in and was our best forward but then made some unforced errors.
Thought Pratt looked pretty good. He's not ready for a full season yet but he'll be special one day.
Pitts again looked most likely to make a break and scored.
Dagger the same.
But ultimately everything was too slow.

Leigh didn't have to be good tonight and I'm not taking anything away from them.
Pratt did have a good game and looks one for the future (whether it's at Wakefield, who knows) but he will be better when he passes because he blew one if not two tries tonight, but I put that down to inexperience.
All in all I can't wait for this season to be done.

If you want positives re: Leighs performance try the Leigh forum Cokey, we are on a 13 game losing streak
and not really in the mood to praise the opposition.

I'm not looking for praise but, there's no need to put us down because of the way your moods are swinging.

Another pathetic showing from Atoni ,did nothing for 20 mins .....highlights Jowitt signing and Pratts debut.....

No need for you to come and gloat on the opposition board either

I'm not gloating. You're angry with your situation, and putting the opposition down isn't the answer.

I'm sorry for pointing out that beating us isn't an achievement. I didn't mean to hurt your precious feelings

Cokey come on. Come for some banter another day. Not today

I think the post was more to highlight that we are incorrect to assume we should be ashamed to lose to Leigh. I am sure some of our own contributors have highlighted similar about us on other club’s forums. I accept not this season because we haven’t won a game but just stretch your imagination to the maximum how do you think the supporter’s of a team will feel if we beat them. I know it’s hypothetical but one can dream.

The inference was probably re: a newly promoted side hammering us, again.
As I say, if you want praise then look at your own forum, we aren't here to wax lyrical about the
opposition, we don't need the boot in from other supporters, especially right now.
