That’s some comment given Leigh’s shirt

That’s how bad it is

We’ll blow me down I didn’t know that

[Gerrumonside ref]

Great conversion too

Great quick thinking there by Roby

He has been excellent at loose forward the last couple of months

Although he just butchered a try there when he should have passed to Batchelor!

I wasn’t arguing. I like the idea of heritage shirts but would prefer the Blue and White vertical stripes.

[Mapleyther]

Saints playing like it’s their cup final. Huge compliment to a team that was playing Dewsbury last year.

Lomax really is a clever player.

[Gerrumonside ref]

Roby wan strikes again

Yes, although it looks like he’s playing with broken ribs on his right side. Really didn’t want to land on the ball when scoring then, and he’s clearly in some discomfort.

I did wonder if he'd play the second half, but obviously hes made the decision. And justified it.

Broken ribs is a good call - he is clearly in significant pain.

[DavidM]

Does Terry O’Connor ever see anyone play who isn’t outstanding , quality , exceptional 

[LeytherRob]

Game on again, thought we were done after that 3rd try

[Tippytoe]

Jon Wilkin is the biggest Zero in the game of Rugby league if he was a cream bun he would eat himself. 

[Waynebennettswinger]

Leigh deserved that. Love watching Ipape.

Bill Arthur with his usual wisdom, writing Leigh off

"That's a good ball by O'Brien."

The pass was a 10% pass, 20 yards from his own line, with Hardaker about to be smashed by his opposite man.

[gingerjon]

"His feet stay planted"

He literally lifts his feet and moves into the player.

That is VR commentary utterly divorced from what is happening.

[Dave T]

That's a brave call for Wilkin. 

4 pt game with 10 to go and he boldly claims there is still something in this game for Leigh. 

[Just Browny]

First contribution of the night from Welsby is to run 15 yards across the play the ball and push somebody.

[Bedfordshire Bronco]

Welsby runs into the ruck and pushes a player

...absolutely nothing from Kemdal 

[Roy Haggerty]

Ben Davies is a very lucky boy. 

[gingerjon]

To be fair to Kendall there, he was about to call it but then played advantage until the VR was needed

[LeytherRob]

Surely Bell lost that into a Leigh man in the initial contact

[doc]

Loving the drama!
