Sorting out the ruck : Sun May 29, 2016 3:44 pm  

Watched Leigh yesterday and they were quiet good, apart from the ruck. It seemed like they were trying not to concede a penalty, and letting go of Bradford on the 2 / 3 second count, which allowed the big Bradford forwards to easily march down field.

Two try's also came from sloppy marker which is disappointing.....

We really need to sort the ruck out defensively if we are to get promoted.

The Mrs who hasn't been to a live game said Bradford were miles quicker around the play the ball.

For me it was as you suggest.

Don't really know the answer. A very fine line between holding down and being penalised and controlling the ruck.

Guess we need to pay as the ref wants it playing which unfortunately can be different from week to week.

They may have marched down the pitch,but they had to work for that yardage it didn't come free.

Will LCTV be putting the Bradford game up as it was on Sky? I'd like to watch it again on the telly.....

The two try's we gave them from dummy half runs were free!! Like under 12's stuff!

I don't think we're that far off, a few defensive issues to sort out and being a bit smarter in attack, and we'll be a hard team to beat.
