Hampshire really isn’t good enough
Very harsh. He's worked hard and done some really good stuff in defence and granted, made one mistake but he's been much improved tonight

Missed completely by the ref, video official and just about the worst commentary pairing imaginable.
Think Barry McDermott is just plain thick. Talk about stealing a living.

Sky's commentary needs an overhaul. All they do is repeat the same garbage phrases for every team and player. Love them or hate them, Stevo and Eddie could make games exciting and sky haven't replaced them

All in all a very decent performance, yes we looked a bit leggy/gassed in the 2nd half when Leigh were offloading but a great scoreline. It was a must win for them and the look on their coaches' faces at the end said it all.
I think tonight there was a return to those extra efforts that can make the difference, we just looked more focussed.

Cracking win tonight showed real spirit. Good news is field isn't injured was never playing tonight Duffy says was never backing up 2 close games coming back from injury wrapping him up in cotton wool and will be good to go Saturday at Leeds. But have to say his under study eckersley is looking every bit a piece of gold.

Neither did I. I've seen people saying, how come Leigh are so far down the table when they can play like that? But maybe over the season, they've let in too many soft tries like they did tonight; their defence was really appalling. And perhaps that's why they are where they are. It's no good showing a threat in attack in the last 15 if you're already so far behind. Have to say, though, until I see a replay, I couldn't see what was wrong with that Leigh disallowed try. But obviously, at the stadium, I didn't have the benefit of Sky's expert commentary!

Brilliant performance tonight from all the team , credit where it’s due I thought Hampshire was pretty good in defence tonight . Leeming was a joy to watch as was junior. Kaide Ellis is quickly turning into one of the best overseas forwards we have had . Comedy of the evening was Mago holding onto Dwyer and carrying him 20 yards in the build up to his try , me and the middle daughter where crying laughing at that . Pure strength.
Well done all on a fantastic night .
