Looking like a 6k crowd this, although not sure about the away fans sales - looks relatively poor compared to previous from Leigh fans 

About 5500 is my guess Saturday is always a bad day, add in Easter Saturday when plenty are away then 2.30pm when it’s on TV against a team we will have played twice in 4 home games and it won’t be a pretty shot of empty stands

[Ragingbull]

Strange fixture this given the 2 teams played at this venue in round 1.  Only in week 8 and we already have loop fixtures.  Only in Rugby League......

Wigan travel to play at Catalan’s early June and later August. Be interesting to see how many get to that gig.

Just started watching Leigh Vs Bradford Northern.

[YCKonstantine]

That’s seriously a penalty? Christ.

Dewsbury shirley?

[Old Frightful]

Think they'd have scored had they put it through the hands but a good try nevertheless.

Yes. I'm sorry, I have a cold.

[Chrispmartha]

Lots of booing from the Lopords fans

Ref’s got everything spot on

[Old Frightful]

Salford looking good at the mo, Leigh perhaps might have reasonable cause for a grumble or two as regards calls but at least they're not Hull FC.

[Old Frightful]

A purple spell for Salford, Leigh need to try to stay in the game but right now they're struggling.

[Old Frightful]

Both teams have such exciting players, it's like they're playing a different sport compared to what I usually witness.

Again, Leigh perhaps a tad unlucky there.

[Mapleyther]

Shocking performance from the ref - never a forward pass

Touchies usually give forward passes, looked forward to me

Ayup, is that you, Nelson?   It was without doubt forward. Maybe Beaumont forgot to power up the gravitational lens.

Could be wrong as I'm in the stands without benefit of a replay, but it looked like a knock on before the second try which has got the crowd riled

Even Wilkin said it wasn’t forward!

Impressed with the commentary team. How nice to not have to listen to the drivel of Barry and Terry.

[Snowys Backside]

Fantastic line from O Donnell and a perfect flat no look pass. Looked forward because the Salford defence ran past o donnell. 
 

Plenty of points in this but Salford are great with the ball. Leigh are dangerous but as long as Chamberlain is on, we don’t have a chance offensively or defensively !

[Southampton Leyther]

Salford dangerous and got on a roll after 15 mins or so. Leigh couldn't get hold of the ball.

Nothing wrong at all with the disallowed try for O'Donnell. Was a lovely piece of rugby, they showed it from 3 angles and it clearly wasn't forward. Very frustrating.

It was a knock on, by Leigh

There’s Wilkin though, although to be fair he’s almost bearable when Saints aren’t playing

[JohnM]

Off the wall suggestion. Leigh need to make much more use of Charnley.  Ball is hardly getting to him, but when it does, there is always the feeling of hope.
