Leigh game

Recommended Posts

With Leigh nothing to play for on Sunday, I'm really hoping that they will be resting most of the first team for the more important games to come.

Think they rested about six,seven players against Sheffield,so you couldn't blame them for doing it.

I agree with CF, largely due to our desperate lack of players. A number appear to have left the club (confirmation?), some are plying their wares at Hemel Hempstead for whatever reason and a number are injured, including a couple who are out for the season.

 

I think that Sunday's 17 must have been pretty much a scratch squad. The fact that Muranka was introduced at the 78 minute mark must have been for a reason other than tactical - at least I do hope so.

Sport, amongst other things, is a dream-world offering escape from harsh reality and the disturbing prospect of change.

Uiasele looked to be limping most of the match on Sunday too, so I'll be surprised if he's fit. If only we had a second team -- we'd have the players ready and able to step straight in. :angel:

Realy do hope the club get a 2nd team sorted for next season again if others follow too

 

 

There's no point if they don't have a league to play in Chris.

Hi Andy,

 

I expect all the rested players to be back - that's Higson, Worthington, Drinkwater, Higham, Weston, and Patterson. A couple of others could make way for Acton, (returning after seven weeks banned) and new signing Danny Tickle. Otherwise, I think Neil Jukes will want a strong team on the pitch, to try and re-discover the form we were showing prior to the close shave at Sheffield. There is a record at stake too - we haven't been beaten at home in the league, these past three seasons. Mind you, weren't Dewsbury the last team to beat us in the Championship at LSV, in the last game of 2013? And didn't you only have 17 to pick from, that day?!

Think your home record will be safe on Sunday, with or without a full team.All the best with your games to get into Super League.

Thanks Andy. If we play like we did against an 'in form' Halifax, then you could be in for a hard afternoon. However, if we play like we did at Sheffield, then it could be close!

I'm sure that we can accommodate you and play like Halifax did Alan.

All I can see on Sunday is a loss.

All the same, I'll pay my admission fee and rejoice or belly ache accordingly.

Is big Jamie playing on Sunday? If so, let's see who he can try and destroy.

Should be back after his seven match 'rest'. I hope he has learned his lesson, during his ban - but I may just have said that before!!

Jee wiz. I enjoy the second team matches as much as anyone but let's concentrate on a decent first team squad rather than have 96 players on board. We had plenty of second team players available early doors but GM didn't give them a sniff. Waste of brass I'm afraid.

I've just looked at the league tables and realised that we could be in tenth place by 5pm today.

 

 

If Oldham score 200 points, then maybe, otherwise 8th looks likely. I'm still sticking with 7th (3rd) after the eights.

Probably little consolation, but your team played the game in an excellent spirit, and were busting a gut to try and score until the final hooter. Also credit to your players who stayed on the pitch to watch and applaud the trophy presentation.

 

I hope we won't be playing you next season ( ;) ) but wouldn't be disappointed to have to make the journey to yours.

 

All the best for the rest of this season.

As Sweaty said, well done to the Dewsbury fans in the North Stand.Good to see the Dewsbury players getting an ovation from the North Stand at the end of the game and well done to the Dewsbury players who stayed on the pitch whilst the League Leaders Shield was being presented to Leigh. :)

We`re on a road to Nowhere.......................

I see there are a few sporting gestures from true sporting fans over at Leigh. These are always appreciated.The truth of the matter was Leigh were on top of their game whilst the Rams rolled over & died in the 3rd minute and never got to grips with any game plan. Not going down the route of identifying individuals, this was down to lack of team performance. Good luck to Leigh in the Middle 8's.

Went to the match today and was gobsmacked as to why Farrell got such a short game yet was involved in just about every tackle whilst he was on, yet UAISELE who didn't look at all interested played the lot. At first glance the word UAISELE doesn't look unlike the word USELESS which is what he was. There were weaknesses which Morrison obviously could not see OR which he saw and did nothing about. And It's no good saying the players didn't turn up when the only coach that turned up was the one the travelled over on. Leigh are obviously a very good team which is why they are at the top but how on earth can you play your heart out as did Crookes and others and  have a weak link like Uaisele walking about day dreaming they'd have been better off taking him off and putting a waste bin in his place. GET A GRIP MORRISON. I can think of a second waste bin being put to good use.
