I know it wasn't great to see a lead like that clawed back but I don't see it as switching off or lack of effort. I'm pretty sure our guys would have preferred a 0-60 final result.

It's simply the ebb and flow of the game and how you handle it.

We started well. They gradually fixed some issues and plated better. We learned how to handle it and played better than they did.

It could easily have been try for try through to 26-26 and then we pull away. No one would have said lack of effort then but it's the same number of tries scored and the same plays.

I'm glad we handled their best and beat them convincingly. That is what happened.

Great post and spot on!

FFS. What is this? The Gestapo? Repeat after me: "you can only post if you are positive" (x3). Who determines what is positive? Is there a positivity scale? People have a right to express any opinion positive/negative.

Course they have a right to an opinion whether it be positive or negetive I never said they couldn't, what I said was that SOME people confuse an opinion with criticism, a bit like you really saying that your entitled to rubbish my point including a bit of childish sarcasm but I'm apparently not allowed my opinion, you've clearly a lot of bitterness in you which you need to rid yourself of.

Erm what? You suggested people shouldn't express an opinion if it's negative fella.

"try working on the basis that if I've nothing good to say I'll keep my gob shut and not be negative".

P.s criticism is an opinion. It's nothing to do with a guise. Please state where I did say you couldn't have an opinion? Me giving a retort to what you put isn't doing that. Think you're getting your wires crossed. I'm defending the right for people to post what they like positive/negative. You were suggesting people shouldn't post anything negative. Big difference pal.

What I suggested was to one individual poster not people in general so please don't try and twist my words, and yes it's sometimes better to say nothing at all than to make unqualified remarks as I'm sure you will realise when you leave school and reach maturity fella
Education is fine if you learn from it and not waste it on here trying to wind people up, oh and good luck with that and all

Great Win under the circumstances.Our biggest problem is Discipline whether its trained into us to slow the game down or not but we took the pis# last night with it, LEIGH only completed 1 SET by themselves in that first half all the others times we gave a penalty away that's what piggy back them up the field every time.


up the Trin

Re: Leigh away : Sun May 07, 2017 12:41 pm  

It was a gutsy win yesterday, no doubt at all.
The 20 point lead, in less than 20 mins was incredible and it looked at that point that we were going to rack up a cricket score.
Fifita was almost unplayable and the 2 clean breaks were superb but, after conceding their first try, we just seem to lose all of our shape and composure and compounded this with penalty after penalty, although some of those decisions seemed very harsh.
Having said that, to be down on troops and come back to secure a game that appeared to be slipping from our grasp was a great effort.
Huby deserves massive credit for the minutes that he put in and it's another 2 points, which keeps us in touch with the top 4 ! (which is just mad, when you think where we were 2 seasons ago).
If we can keep on chalking up the wins against the lower half clubs and maybe surprise one or 2 clubs above us, we have everything to play for.

We could still do with Saints, Catalan or Wire to keep struggling for form though as it could all get really tight for 8th spot.

Come on Trin !

What gets on my nerves is the constantly negative comments posted to the total exclusion of everything positive that occurred in the game by the teams OWN FANS.
Ok if the Codheads come here and start with that, at least you know they have an axe to grind and to not take em too seriously, but when your own fans are here bagging players all over the place gobbing off about how utterly pathetic the team is in virtually every level and questioning their commitment, ability and professionalism, I think its time to step back and ask the question.....why are you actually posting, are you actually a fan of WT or is there some other force driving you to behave like this.
Nobody's saying we shouldn't point out failings, things that need improvement, but they can't be the beginning middle and end of every reason you post.
Mistakes are made, nobody's perfect, the players know it, the staff know it, there's no need to smash em to pieces with it, its unproductive, unnecessary....almost gratuitous sometimes.
As fans we do care, why we can't direct that depth of feeling in to posts that help and encourage the players and the club rather than just grind it in to the ground...I dunno.

boils my p*** sometimes

Some bad losers from the Leigh lot. Almost like Dennis Betts to a point. We run 40 on em and they feel hard done by?

Quite so, that's the second most points they've had put past them, only just behind what Castleford put past them

I think our biggest problem as Wakey fans is expecting the worst to happen. We're so used to our team giving up and losing that it's strange having a team who are willing to fight for each other and fight for a win. They're doing great this year and are getting better as the season goes on. I'm trying to make an effort not to comment on our games until the final whistle has been blown as this team have the ability to astound.

What ever happens, we're all Trin fans and I'm sure we all want the best for the club

2 people deserve some praise after the game.

The sniper who shot Ben Jones Bishop.

The medical person who gave him the miraculous recovery to let him get up and run round like a 4 year old in a sweet shop
