Leigh Leopards • Re: Leigh v Salford Game
I agree with a lot of the above as regards position switches, if only to try something out.
Overall I'm not overly disappointed, in some aspects I might view it as two points dropped but I think the winds weren't entirely fair.
I think the result was a forgone conclusion as they scored two quick back to backs right at the end of the first half, and I think if it wasn't for the hooter we would have been on the end of a few more.
A word on Charnley, bar his unfortunate error, which was also at the worst time; he really did stand out for me, if for nothing more than compared to his performances last season.
We got a player with a proven track record going up against part-time players and he seemed to be full of doubt and never wanted to back himself. Maybe he wasn't match fit (but for a whole season?) or was just coasting a bit, he certainly looked happy enough, but Friday night was a different player; speed, strength, aggression. I very much liked what I saw.
Was worried Amone might get a retro ban for his tip/yellow at the end but it seems a £250 fine is all, because we certainly need his grunt in the middle.
