If Cartwright gets Abdul fit, then we're gonna have a top drawer player there.

Everyone knows how taleanted a rugby league player there is in Abdul, but it's always been about his fitness with him.

Of course, it won't just be down to Cartwright, Abdul has to play his part.

Radford, Peters and McNamara have all tried and failed, why will it be different this time?

Like I said, let's wait and see.

Cartwright's main point was that his team are gonna be fit. So that's the only hope I'm clinging to.

But a fit Abdul is gonna be a very good player. So right now I'll cling to that hope.

I'm not waiting and seeing anymore at this club, years and years of disappointment and enough is enough

Not sure, if/when we finish bottom maybe.

I didn't watch the game live today and have scrolled through the recording. Entirely as expected, a disjointed performance by a team that look like they barely know each other (in fairness that's partly true) - our passing remains diabolical.

Unless Cartwright is some sort of magician I just don't see a material improvement next year, but I'm pretty ambivalent about it, wasted a fair bit of angst on these since 2018 so just resigned to more of the same. They say it's the hope that kills you, so perversely having no hope at all makes the relentless huge defeats easy to accept. :lol:

Even in a disastrous day for us, I have to mention that Lewis Martin keeps showing even better glimpses of talent game on game. He seems to be getting more confident each game I see in s team that has no confidence. Some blistering running from him today. Cutting through them like a thoroughbred. He's still only a puppy.

Completely agree.

Does he stick around if we continue to be poor and Wigan/saints/Warrington come calling?

On behalf of all Leigh fans i want to thank you for taking Tom (hands like cows tits) Briscoe and Ed (can’t pass won’t pass can’t tackle won’t tackle) Chamberlain off our hands.

What a massive disappointment. Sums up the season really. Rudderless, disjointed, no leaders or creativity. Makes me more glad we’ve signed experienced players.

Martin continues to improve, as does Barron - who I’d previously written off, so fair play to him.

Why oh why didn’t we start a hooker at 9? He starts Charles at 7 and Moy at 1, why not Balmforth at 9? Still can’t help but think Grix as it in for him for some reason.

Once we were with Charles at 1, Smith the only half and Lane at 9 we were done for. We had no problem getting to their line, but absolutely no clue how to get over it. I really do think if we’d have kept Reynolds we would have won a few more games, especially those tight losses a few weeks back and maybe even today with Walker at 6.

Anyway, ifs and buts. The team is a poop show which is thankfully being sorted out. Less than half of the 17 today should be in the starting 17 next season.
