I wish I could join the Leythers in the North Stand as I did last year but I'll be in the press box on media duties for the Eagles. Been asked to join the LCTV commentary team pre-match to give my thoughts on the game so I'm looking forward to that. :thumb:

No reserves,but resilience,persistence and determination are omnipotent.

Just to make you Leigh fans feel better I can inform you that I shall resist the offer to watch the game from the North Stand.The last time FFMM ran into a young,teenage,good looking fella he ended up on his backside;and that was when FFMM was young and in his prime.
It was Sam Burgess,of course.I believe it can be seen on that video sharing website which is an anagram of Tube You.
There again FFMM only runs into the stand when he scores a try so the likelihood is nil;but I'll not take the chance and I have every faith in the Eagles players to ensure that is exactly what happens on Sunday.

Back in a short while to ask you Leigh fans a little question.You'll love it. :thumb:

Ben Musolino will not be in the Eagles squad this weekend. He features in Doncaster's 19 man squad for their game against Featherstone after being sent out on loan for a month.

Re: Game 18 - Leigh Away : Wed Jun 17, 2015 4:59 pm  
There I was minding my own business,like a good boy should,when I happened across the Batley forum and I thought I would see if their fans had calmed down yet after watching Leigh Centurions on Sunday.
I decided to plagiarise this:-
Leigh players have been cited 28 times this year.
All the other teams combined have had players cited 52 times.
24 of these 52 times have been against Leigh.
So if you remove the games V Leigh, all the other teams COMBINED are as dirty as Leigh with 28 referrals.


It's not my question,and I haven't checked it,but I never thought the officials ever bothered looking in the direction of Leigh.I am surprised.

A few years ago Leigh Life showed a supporters meeting at the LSV and the previous board were in attendance.Trevor Barton and the solicitor who was the chairman.
The local MP turned up late.( This may have been the second meeting )
It was stated that Millward had been brought in as head coach with one of his aims being to reduce the players salary from the outgoings.
To the credit of Millward,a fans favourite during his time at Leigh but not so popular in Super League with Castleford,he developed to Super League standard both Chris Hill and Ellis, with Hill also representing his country.
While Millward had the financial constraints he was able to improve players whereas the next England head coach has been able to buy players straight from Super League clubs,the last 4 being Hock,Higham,Pala and Hopkins yet despite the next England head coach being in position seemingly longer than Millward the players at Leigh do not seem to be progressing as they were under the previous regime.
The question is - Have any players improved up to Super League/International standard or are they just at Leigh as they can pay more than some Super League clubs and they are just prepared to be like Super League fans and accept mediocrity in contrast to the NRL,or success relative to an apparently sub-standard competition?

Or,as an easier question - Has the next England head coach developed the players as much as he should bearing in mind how far they had progressed in the sport prior to arriving at Leigh?

Should I expect a decent display from Leigh,this time?
