Take nothing away from Leigh, but for the best part of 30mins in that second half our forwards were completely dominant. Normally that would have been enough to win most games, but other than the Fages/Evalds link we failed to get our backs into the game in their half today. Full credit to Leigh though, for all our domination, they still had the confidence to fling the ball wide and do their best stretch our defence.



For all our not wanting to blame our injuries, we saw that without Dobson or Chase we have no one to control the game. No lack of effort, just a lack of guile.

You know you are old when trolls are so poor.

Quote ="Talent Spotter"Perhaps 'dominated' was the wrong word to use, however we have had 10 or 12 point leads towards the end of the games that I mentioned yet never really managed to kill the games off, eventually winning them all by one score. Yesterday was there to be won with 20 minutes to go and a 6 point lead however again we weren't smart enough to finish the game off and this time it cost us the ">result.'" I know what you mean. I would say that when we have the momentum in games we dont then kill teams off. Is that down to our tactics being too conservative or something else?

I agree however if you go into the last 5 minutes with a 12 point lead you shouldn't be hanging on at the end. I hate the term 'game management' yet it is an area of our game that we need to improve. We currently specialise in kicks out on the full, passes/tackled into touch and interceptions, most of which seem to occur when we are in front.
