Sorry but Ryan is overrated, mostly by himself i believe. He isnt a bad player, very solid under the high ball and in defence. But his kick returns were often poor, he didnt link well into he line, usually mistiming his run or just driftng wide rather than straightening up and he couldn't pass to save his life. If we get Miles back then very good business!

As one of Ryans sponsors Im probably quite biased but I can tell you for sure that the bolded part is simply not true and i have no idea where this idea has come from. He is one of the nicest lads you could meet and not big headed in the slightest. The move to Dewsbury will be very good for him and he will do well under a good coach like Morrison who knows how to get the best out of players.

As for the timing thing I think that were more to do with Harrisons tactics rather than Ryan himself, he wanted a FB who would create tries rather than score them but taking one look at Ryan`s scoring record its clear to see that the lad just has the knack of finding the try line. For some reason Harrison did not use tactics that suited that style and Im sure that the beastings and the rollockings that he constantly handed out did nothing for Ryan's confidence.

What about him waving at players ,as he was scoring , these antics inspired the Leigh players on that April afternoon at the Shay when we mounted a bigger comeback than Lazuras , thank you Mr Fieldmouse .

oh bore off charlie have a look closer to home talking about d*cks in a team !! you are certainly blessed in that department.

We have a saying around these parts it has something to do with a pot , kettle and a grimey bum .

Didn't Brierley do something similar when Leigh played Fev?

Correction: Under orders, your team intentionally started a fight and, instead of staying focused, our team were drawn into it. Oldest trick in the book and, as it was just before half-time, KH should have warned them not to get involved.

....and guess who are bottom of the discipline table with 9 yellow and 4 red?

You got it!

Charlie knows, but he also forgets

Unfortunatly for Ryan it looks like if he had been staying he would not have been available until April so would have missed first 2 months of season. Good luck Ryan hope you make a full recovery and thanks for the last few years .

Mick I think the game you refer to was when Ryan was alleged to have thrown the ball at Fev fans after scoring , it was only ALLEGED though , as he has done this on many occasions this season , mainly at Leigh fans to celebrate .

As for having Richards in the team , we all have them , and the Fighting during the Lazarus comeback in April , wasn't under Paul Rowleys orders , Paul is a very articulate Coach we don't need to stoop to these tactics , maybe Fax tried them in the return fixture , but it didn't work , cream always rises to the Top .Charlie knows .

Michael chill out , see ya tomorrow , hope the Minestrone is Hot .

Charlie doesnt know

Steve you know me by now , I always think im right , but admit it when im wrong , im a very modest Clown .

Everybody knows but you it would seem

Steve , I know as much as the next man , as long as the next man is an idiot

lifes to short to be serious .

Charlie you do have your red rose tinted specs on,Rowley stated categorically that he had to to do something drastic to change the game and if that was a fight so be it @ Brierley celebrated at the Fev end and was just been exuberant so that was ok then.

Mick , I will be wearing my white rose tinted ones today

.

Excellent but for Fax or Dewsbury ? Remind me again who won the County Championship

I will siding with Fax today , maybe from a selfish view I should want Dews to win

which would mean them travelling to the LSV next week , but I stick to my guns , I like to see you , HJ , and Hudd-Shay smiling .As for the Cricket , the Red Rose will rise again .Bumble knows .

Back on topic...

In the games I've seen this season he hasn't looked fit. His pace seems to have deserted him a touch and he looked knackered half the time. Yet he was still scoring tries, making the tackles and taking the high balls. Maybe it's down to coaching? The Fitness/Conditioning at Fax? I wouldn't know but he seems to have gone slightly backwards the last 18 months, as did another player who signed for Dewsbury last year after a disappointing Fax spell. I forget his name, I wonder how he's playing now?

Not very well, I think he might be in running for Championship player of the year, but we don't want that sort of stuff at the Shay when we can have 5 drives and a kick.
