Chris Hill was excellent, by far the best forward on the pitch.

As said, it's a marathon....the year Cas went up we started the season on fire and won the National Rail Cup, after that we fell apart towards the end and never looked the same team again. Long way to go yet.

Welcome back VM

The rugby on display wasn't the best but the entertainment was top notch. You seemed to have signed another 'over the hill' Aussie in Webster, he just seems happy to link the play rather than actually do anything. Where was TKL, thought he was supposed to be playing?

I thought that Ostick went well for you guys, took the ball well and made some good yards.

The problem with Webster is that he has no runners with him half the time, give him space and he'll do the business but without runners he's not going to be given any.

Ostick has been playing like that all year. Infact our best players this season we playing reserve rugby last year in Ostick, Flynn and Yates.

Thank God VM reared his ugly head, any longer and he would have looked an even bigger muppet. TKL is a waste of space and no I do not support Leigh. 1 or 2 old heads usually forwards or a halfback but outside backs when they are past it they are just that.

Lets not forget it was only a couple of weeks back we were complaining about getting beat by batley so we're not getting carried away by one win at widnes...good though isn't it.

Aw VM welcome back I've missed you. In fact this forum would be lost without you and I'm thinking of instructing the team to throw the game the next time we play you - we don't want you to go missing again!

Many thanks for the kind words, i shall remain on this board until one day i feel no need to spread the gospel of the Vikings.


You may have won the battle but you havent won the war.

You couldnt fight your way through a paper bag for most of that game but still somehow won.

Lee Marsh is totally unfit and Watson is just going through the motions, your best was Chris Hill and Stanton IMO the rest were very poor.

The 500 travelling friends also made some very good noise at times.

1 - 0 to Leigh for the moment.

Going through the 'motions' he sure was just like a conductor! get yourself a copy of the DVD I'm sure you'll notice Watson directing play and Players! Marsh will never look fit! both teams were poor yesterday however, the scambling defence was excellent from both sides!
Oh dear Webster and Thackery Super League players!
