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 but all the talk about Armstrong beforehand was unjustified. He 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.'"
I thought the lad Armstrong (he was the new full back wasn’t he?) looked exciting.
Illusive in attack, strong in defence, safe under the high ball and wasn’t it he who effectively set up the drop goal with his half break? His build & illusive running style reminds me of Field.
I think he’ll go on to be a very good SL player from the snippets I saw last night.
