  1. As with most changes to the rules, it got used in abundance for a few weeks at the start of the season then we forgot all about it and went back to normal. At this point I think we have to accept that in SL rounds 1-3, 4-27 and playoffs will be refereed to 3 different tolerance levels of the rules, gradually relaxing until you have the GF where almost everything is let go to let the game flow and we all have our yearly discussion about how good it is seeing refs just let a game go.
  2. Was it just me or did it sound like the VR was eating his tea whilst talking through that decision?
  3. It's kind of funny seeing a guy most famous for(on the field that is) his no nonsense approach tk knocking his kneecap back in place in the middle of a tackle so he can continue playing, clutching his face like a premier league footballer.
  4. They really need to do something about players feigning injury hoping for VR intervention. It's getting ridiculous now.
  5. When he first started at the BBC on SLS and CC broadcasts purely as a studio pundit I thought he was actually not bad and was a bit of a refreshing change at the time. Since he's moved to sky though there seems to be a deliberate effort to be more controversial and argumentative as soon on Monday night football with Carragher/Neville/Keane etc but as you say it comes off sulky and petulant these days. He needs reigning in significantly by sky
  6. Nope, came close a few times. We were 19-18 up in 2019 before Higson got himself binned leading to a winning try for KR. 2017 I seem to remember Abdul absolutely kicking us to death to win 23-10 which was the widest result, the other 4 were no more than 6 points in it and 4 of them also involved drop goals.
  7. Death, taxes and Hull KR in the cup. I make that 2017(h), 19(a), 20(a), 22(a), 23(F), 24(a) now.
  8. Yes I would think so, certainly can't think of any bigger crowds in recent years at this stage. I find it very encouraging to see the numbers in the east stand steadily growing too, seems to be quite a few building habits and becoming regulars in a stand that has probably been used less than 10 times prior to last season for Leigh games. Makes the ground seem a lot fuller when we have all 4 sides populated.
  9. There were some very questionable decisions that prevented Fev being promoted in 2023 IMO. Choice of Long as head coach was a gamble, removing him right at the business end of the year and replacing him with a fairly average coach was an even bigger gamble, and then there was a scattergun approach to recruitment. Signing Aekins was a great move for instance, but signing Aekins whilst retaining MK and BP then playing him in the centres/halfback was mind boggling. Leigh's best signing going in to 2022 was Chris Chester, he has arguably one of the best records of anyone in the UK for identifying talent from Oz when you consider his Leigh and Wakey signings and he's absolutely nailed the recruitment side for us.
  10. It's fast becoming a sport between the more reputable journo's as to who can debunk Gledhill the quickest.
  11. You'll get it next week once they've managed to copy and paste all the relevant bits
