Leigh haven't had to show any discipline in the Championship, they can chuck the ball around & outscore the part timers too easily... but step up a level & their inability to sustain or handle pressure is exposed. All these signings will do is enable them to run up bigger scores with less effort. Still won't help against stronger opposition.


Part-time Halifax 34 Leigh 12

Best points tally by Leigh = 22

Aggregate score over 3 games:-

Part-time Halifax 54 Leigh 52.

Leigh's problem was that Wakey improved by getting Brian Smith, Halifax got better as season went on & Bradford targeted the Leigh game as a must win.
Leigh stood still whilst becoming over-confident allowing everyone to overtake them.
I do find the fall amusing. The thuggery not been rewarding justifying but also appreciate they can play great rugby + don't want the status quo re-inforced.
I worry with Beaumont publicly saying they'll break the cap & the signings announced that they put all their eggs in the super league basket & that wont end nice

Leigh's problem was they thought they were in Super League already and the 8's would be a formality !!

Wow. Over 25% of the cap on 2 players probably shows at least part of Salfords problems.

It is rumoured but unsubstantiated that Dr MarwanK has many employees in his other businesses that are either RL Players or relatives of RL Players, thereby circumnavigating the cap surreptitiously ...

No need to break the cap if you can bypass the cap.

Lets also not forget the £250k intentional breaking of the cap by little Wigan in desperation to avoid relegation & the subsequent sudden onset mute state that the RFL employed in not dealing with it.

Rules like those imposed by the RFL that promote segregation are always likely to be challenged at some point by a vertebrate.

Current SL status clubs would never vote for even a partial closing of the 'cap gap' as it is by design intended to impose significant restraint on the have nots, thereby protecting the position of the haves.

More power to those who have the cojones to take on the the big man.

We won 2 games, you won 1. Yet another Rugby League fan obsessed by Leigh Centurions. We will be in Super League years before you lot will - FACT ! Your owners have no ambition...and when are your landlord's going to finish building that stand at the Shay ? :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

So are you an 'ex player' ? Who knows what goes through a player's mind, thought complacency would be the last of them...(else we would have lost more than 1 league game) playing 'part time amatuers' :D Is this the same reason Warrington Wolves had a dire 'Super 8's' ? Doubt it, it was probably because the other teams were a lot better on the day.

I don't think Sumbody is a Fax fan tbh, think he is just trying to make a point that Leigh have stood still while others improved this season even the part time teams! Don't be so touchy, oh and by the way see you in the CHAMPIONSHIP next year! :lol: :lol: :lol:

So what if he employs players wives, lots of clubs do that. It isn't breaking the cap, it's included in the cap. It's done to help players wives (generally the Aussie ones who've had to uproot and move across the world) to get a job and an income. It helps with visas for the Aussies coming over and of course means they pay less tax than if all that money went directly to the player.

As for the rest of your post, well you're starting to sound as paranoid and strange as your clubs chairman.

Leigh's problem is that by the time the 8's came round too many key bodies were busted, 7 are having ops already and our 3 ballplayers are included.

The CC run took too much out of the tank and with hindsight did us no favours as everybody expected us to do better in the 8's.

Injuries happen though, the new personnel will add experience for when crunch time comes again.

Hopefully we will fair better next time, but a lot of our fans don't help.

Why has no one YET blamed all the various match officials for this situation?

They seem to be the ones causing all the problems, according to many who post on here. Can't we have consistency :WHISTLE: :wink:
