FT: Sheffield Eagles 10-24 Batley Bulldogs.

Next Sunday we need to keep an eye on Dom Brambani/Pat Walker and their kicking game. Constantly turning kicking into space, turning Sheffield around and then using their big back Hirst, Gledhill, Chandler, Lillycrop and Brown to restrict the Eagles momentum.

I interviewed John Kear after the game and his summation of next weekend's game was "biggest game of our season, one which the Bulldogs can't afford to lose."

The next eight days are crucial and the way fixtures are lined up against the Bulls, one feels we need all six points to then be in control of our own destiny.

Agreed about Brambani, Walker, and Southernwood for that matter. They have transformed a workmanlike, 'honest' team into a good one. We, at Leigh, had two almighty tussles with them this season, and their win against us, up at The Mount, was no 'first day fluke'. They were good. They also know just how to frustrate the life out of their opponents - so beware!

That's where the game will be won and lost next week - in the halves.

It's fustrating to see so many of our former players return and come back to haunt us.

Curiously, many of ours seem subdued when they play against us. I wonder if we'll come across Ryan Brierley in the Qualifiers?

I don't think we've seen the best of Haggerty yet

Why didn't he probably go to the game? Do you know something I don't?

Well in the race to make the top 4, Halifax have just done us a slight favour by drawing away to Whitehaven.

A draw is dropped points. Sounded a real scrap with Halifax catching the jitters.

TBF I think i think Halifax have been inconsistent all year. They've lost to Swinton and drawn against Whitehaven while at the same time they put in one of the best performances in the championship to nil Fev and beat us. Seem to struggle to get up for the lesser teams (much like us) Bet your life they'll come out all guns blazing to face us.
