BA didn’t seem too bothered about the defence, just saying that it can happen in some games that are a bit frantic.
I get hes got this no nonsense hard persona but I think he knows when to ise it on the pmsyers, I don't think he’ll be that harsh on them as he says its not as if it is happening every week, it was just one of those games.

If entertainment is about lots of points and terrible defence, that was the game to watch. It was like both coaches agreed beforehand it was gonna be box office, with real respect between the teams and no malice or pettiness. I’ve not seen a game played in that manner for quite some time. Jake Connor is worth the admission fee himself. Obviously neither team is a serious contender for the big one with defending like that, and it’s worrying that it came on the back of a poor performance last week. I really thought Arthur would have been into them big time and stiffened that defence up. Great game to watch, unless your a purist, but some worrying signs if we defend like that against K.R next week.

To be fair, I think Leigh at their best are the best attacking team in the league. 


I really like Lam as a coach, I wouldn't mind him taking over from BA.

Im not overly concerned about the defence, we've been pretty solid all year. 


I don't see why we can't compete with Wigan and KR, we've beaten Wigan, nearly beat KR, Wigan lost to Wakefield last week, it's not like they're miles ahead of us. 


I think the signs are there, and I'd back us against both teams but next week will really show where we are. 


Lots of criticism for our attack earlier in the season, but it really is starting to fire now we've got a settled spine.

It was one of those games,not too disappointed in the defence as I think that does a disservice to Leigh's attack. They are a free flowing footy team with great switch plays and kept managing to find space out wide. A wins a win and there will not be many teams that put 40+ points against them, as long as we score more than them. Also, a change of game plan does no harm,can't play the same every week. Have to keep the oppo guessing a little sometimes 

Said the same to my mate about Lam.
Very entertaining game and could have been different had they not lost 2 of their key players in the backs.
Pleased to see Leigh playing good attacking rugby.
Agree with most on here that Newman looked much better than last week and still don`t see Handley as a centre.
Also agree that Hall might only be used to take the ball out of defence and score from 10 yards.
Miller, Connor and Watkins excellent.
McDonnell again very poor.
Was Lumb injured hence the inclusion of Edgell?
Would really like to see ECW at centre with Handley on the wing at some stage but doubt BA will give in to his experiment.
All in all a great game for attack and not so good for defence. A win is a win though.
