Well done from a Donny fan. Want to see you guys stay up especially with the powers that be forcing you to compete with one hand tied behind your back.

At last a decent kicking game, anyone remember Reynolds and Woods dismal out of hand kicking game. Ellis and Mellor knitted well together, and Marty Russell was outstanding on the left wing with an enthusiastic pack of forwards led well by Thompson, topped off by a Ryan Brierley cameo at the end.

Very promising, now for the Wire!!

My

Biased John Wilkin- Was he commentating on the game, all I heard was, what he used to do, his time at Saints and what a lovely guy Tommy Makinson is. Having slagged off Sky commentators maybe I'll appreciate them a little more this season. Wel done Leigh.

I have always been convinced our starting 13 will be competitive, I just believe we need more depth in the squad to make sure we don't end up like Toronto and cant field a full team. We don't have a Sonny Bill taking up all our funds.

We will have to hold our cards until prospects either see us as viable or squads in Aus are cut, we saw last night that what we have is far better than some of the best up and comings, so they will be squad fillers on loan if needed.

Overall a great start

Eh ?



Little to learn from friendlies.We lost another to injury early.With our current player profile that looks likely as the games come thick and fast and played at a pace under the new rules that will cause strain.

I can see us with a row of seats full of injured players.

We have not just signed anyone sure we have been offered players but lets hope we can find 2/3 more first choicers who will give us a chance

It’s only 8 in sick bay, better than 16.. 5 of course not playing yet which is a concern. Or tactical.

Looks like my crystal ball was firing on all cylinders, embarrassing really we all slated Toronto.

A little harsh given Leigh haven’t had the luxury of building a SL team as Toronto did.

You had the luxury of not having to graft to get into SL like Toronto had to.

Such a shame Toronto didn’t graft to stay in SL.
