Quote Cherry_Warrior="Cherry_Warrior"Enthralling watch. Great defence by both sides and a good pipe opener. Another record set, think the ref got one too for the most obstructions missed in one match. Leigh will go well this season[u but all the talk about Armstrong beforehand was unjustified. [/uHe was a non entity and dealt with very comfortably. Smith had numerous opportunities to win the match but for whatever reason decided to keep playing as if it was the 20th minute. Great watch though and credit to the lobby gobblers on their first and hopefully last win here for over 40 years. Onwards.'"
sorry but got to disagree with you on this one
i've never seen him play before, but he handled everything we threw at him and he made 2 telling breaks, the 1st one he blew and Wardle intercepted and the 2nd led to the winning drop goal
rest of your post i cant disagree with and very much in the same boat. Good hard opening game, and credit to Leigh for sticking in there and getting the win
he feels like he's very much in the mould of Field and French, evasive and lightening fast, and will get better on dryer pitches
