Official Match Thread - Leigh East (CC) : Thu Apr 04, 2013 10:04 am  

This Sunday @ DVS 3pm ko.

First Sunday home game of the season. Difficult to predict a score but let's just hope we do a professional job and get through to the next round with no injuries.

Tough to predict, Leigh East were a top flight amateur side but seemed to have been relegated a couple of divisions due to struggles between seasons.

Charlie hates to do this , but i feel the Seagulls will win , and be a touch to fast and powerful for the East lads , though i would love an East win .

Always a danger that might happen. They never gave in but a little embarrassing for Leigh East. Full credit to the Eagles, thoroughly professional and very ruthless.

Menzie's 5 tries equals Daryl Powell's record for tries in a game, Dom's 14 goals breaks the record for goals in a game (him and Knowles kicked 18/19 between them!) and 112-6 is the most points in a game and the biggest margin, taking over from our 98-4 win over London Skolars.

Whats interesting is to see the scores of the teams that suddenly don't have DR players available to them as it's a cup match - Swinton/ whitehaven to name but two

Charlie has decided , he wants to draw the Seagulls in the next round of the cup at the LSV , so he welcome you back , and bury the Hoodoo , you currently have over us .

A wise man once said "When a desperate man is cornered , he paints with 2 brushes ", i totally agree , and after a mornings Hydrotherapy sessions , and a change in Medication , my views are more clear .

True I don't know but there were five different players yesterday - they could have been resting .....

Let's not blame DR for everything. It just weakens the argument against it.

York managed to beat Fev without any DR players. Swinton losing to Toulouse ? Is that really a shock result ?
