Very impressed.



Solid pack, halves went well and some genuine pace in the back line. Durbin will prove to be a great acquisition at NL level. Granted, the opposition wasn't the best, however Leigh scored some excellent tries today and a promising start to the season.



Skolars 5 Aggrey was a real handful, strong, pretty quick and took his try well.

Durbin was good today. Very lively around the play the ball and never stopped trying to play a part in the game.



What happened to Donlan?

We applied ourselves for 80 minutes today. We showed enthusiasm, application and some talent.



Some of the tries today were gifted, but a lot weren't. We showed spirit and understanding, and there were a lot of positive signs.



Bring on the sterner tests!

aye, and the second row thomas looked very impressive too





i suppose fev will be the real test on wednesday

All in all a good performance, but the passing was a little lax at times. Well get a better idea as to how good we are when we play Fev. I thought that the Skolars no 5 was the pick for them, quite impressed with him.

Very good performance today.....thought Durbin was the pick of the bunch. Well done Mr Kelly - think you`ve pulled off a great signing in Durbin.

and even more of a masterstroke moving him to hooker

sam reay looked very powerful in the centres when he came on at half time

Enjoyed todays game, some excellent tries and Durbin had a blinder. It was good to see us score tries from all over the park too.



As expected, theres a few early season rusty bits to iron out; for every touchline conversion Morty made he fluffed a much easier one, our handling at times wasnt sharp enough, and London opened us a few too many times in the first half.



Any news on Morrison? Looked like an achilles to me.

Young stanton looked pretty hot on his heals today.I think we will see this lad improve over time.



Hilly still needs to keep hold of the ball instead of risking the offload sometimes.



All in all it was a good runout for us.



Come on the leythers!!!
