Well done on beating St Helens in the semi final of the rugby league challenge cup.. An amazing feat for a club that was odds on for relegation at the beginning of the season..

Re: Leigh leopards
Excellent performance, a great game of RL, I saw their last Wembley final in 1971 under Alex Murphy.

Remember Leyland Leopards as our school bus back in the early 70's

I'm sure it was the coach of choice for Viscount Central away days as well

Re: Leigh leopards
Wow,another unbelievable semi final with Hull kr winning with a golden point drop goal..Wigan had a man sent off at start of second half. A poor decision,it should have been a 10 minute sin bin at the most.. talk about reffing decision ruining matches..
Re: Leigh leopards
I think the RL is pretty strict about full blooded shots to the head, whether deliberate or not. (If deliberate, it would be a very long ban.) It's the player's responsibility to take care.
Re: Leigh leopards
I agree,but it was an accident as he was swung round in the tackle and was absolutely unavoidable.

Re: Leigh leopards
It was a 50:50 decision between a sin bin or red and to say it ruined the match, well what a ridiculous comment.

Re: Leigh leopards
Two good semi finals this weekend.
RL not an easy game to referee but, in my view, a yellow card not a red.
Despite being down to 12 men, Wigan put in a good display.

No it isnt a ridiculous comment Winstone,it ruined the game from Wigans point of view,it was always going to be a hard task after he sent him off ..The game itself was a great game..Winstonswhite wrote: βSun Jul 23, 2023 7:45 pmIt was a 50:50 decision between a sin bin or red and to say it ruined the match, well what a ridiculous comment.
Looking forward to a great final though

Re: Leigh leopards
It was a ridiculous comment because as you say, it was a great game.
Wigan had plenty of opportunities to win but Hull KR just shaded it- an awesome challenge cup weekend.
