Tues 6th August : SL : Wigan Warriors v Leigh Leopards KO 20:00 SKY and FREE on SL +

[dkw]

That's embarrassing by Moylan, he stepped away from the tackle, dreadful stuff.

[LeytherRob]

Moylan clearly isn’t over the rib injury. Going to have to bring hardaker on pronto to avoid this getting embarrassing 

[bratman]

Not a good half from Moylan, or Leigh really

[Agbrigg]

Moylan obviously not interested 

[DavidM]

Gee whizz what the hell is he doing

Hardened fans like us will be watching, whatever the channel. Fringe and casual viewers will be watching the Olympics.

[LeytherRob]

Crikey. If you were to assemble a compilation of the softest tries Leigh have conceded this year, every try tonight would be on it. 

[graveyard johnny]

Moylan was finished in the  NRL  long ago - these signings never work out

[EagleEyePie]

That was very easy indeed. We're playing some good stuff but we're being allowed to

[DavidM]

Leigh obviously working tonight on the philosophy that defence is something that goes round a house 

[Hopie]

Leigh players forgot to put this rearranged fixture in the diary, just letting Wigan do what they want.

[Harry Stottle]

Taking nothing away from the pies, but Leyth are shocking, this could get embarrassing.

its HT  this is where Adrian Lam needs to show his credentials as a coach in the dressing room

[THE RED ROOSTER]

There is no defending Leigh's defence in that first half. They need to bench Moylan at half time.

[phiggins]

Poor all round. No energy in the carries, line speed, kick pressure etc, and was clear that Moylan was still injured from his first kick return. Stupid decision to play him, his defence is weak at the best of times.

Many years ago I totally criticised the then so called "Best Rugby Player in the World" who Leeds signed being John Gallagher as the worst defender I have ever seen as he looked frightened, Moylan has trumped him tonight.

This is the standard channel for Rugby League, where do you expect it to be? We've been on main event a few times over the weekend, but there is live cricket tonight and that is on there.

[EagleEyePie]

A lifeline for Leigh. Mago was exposed badly there, but Marshall and Keighran should have stopped him reaching the line.

[bratman]

Looks like Leigh have managed to fix things up a bit at HT, and upped the tempo

[EagleEyePie]

Twice in two games Marshall has bombed a try by not passing after a break, and its usually one of his biggest strengths

Bit of an odd take considering he is currently near the top of the man of steel leaderboard and this is the first bad performance he’s had all year, whilst carrying a rib injury.

sorry didnt know that - dont watch much SL mainly NRL - so observed his demise in that comp

[Wollo Wollo Wayoo]

Couple of dumb penalties from Leigh removes all the momentum they just built up. Very similar to Leeds stupidity the other night.

If I were a Leigh fan, I would be far more annoyed/disappointed with the coaching staff.  They have sent Moylan out to play injured which is a strange decision with Hardaker on the bench.

They have done neither the team or Moylan any favours putting him out there.

[EagleEyePie]

That is unfortunate for McIntosh, but Thaler got that call spot on.
