A bank holiday Monday from hell for Leigh with Dragons warming up for their Magic Weekend date with destiny by putting 60 points on their relegation favourite visitors. 

We can talk about the inequality of the competition for as long as we like but this is a case of the teams putting all that aside and playing the best they could in the circumstances. 

With short turnarounds and injury this might, in all honesty, have been one that Leigh hadn't highlighted as getting too much from and so it proved with the home side well on the way to the half century before the break.
