According to you Leigh are a RL Superpower. Hands up all those teams that played them 3 times during the season. So just the Bulls then.
See above for what you are missing.
I see the point you are making but you are far from the only team to run us close this year.
We have also played Fev and London 3 times.
Played Fev once at home and twice away and all 3 have been extremely close matches going right to the death much like when we played Bradford.
London we played twice at home and won both by just 4 points. Weirdly we absolutely stuffed them down in London.
Batley beat us by 2pts away and ran us all the way at home losing by just 7.
Sheffield ran us very close at home and were 1 minute away from beating us away before Gaz Hock saved the day.
Fact is there are loads of games that have been extremely close this season but in the end we came out on top nearly every time. I count 11 Leigh games this season with just 1 score or less in it. Plus a couple of 7 point wins and a couple of 8 point wins only decided by a late penalty or DG.
Small margins in individual games but the common theme seems to be that although we aren't always at our best we are nearly always capable of doing enough over 80 minutes to come out on top be it against Sheffield at home or Hull KR away.
