I am pretty sure Laithwaite is in on Thurs and that is important. We need either him with Goulden and Taylor or Littler. As I think he'll be involved, we can leave Littler at centre. Slight tinkering with the Leigh back row, so that it does not involve one of these combinations, will be detrimental to us IMO. We attacked well on Sunday, but we did look slightly more vulnerable in defence again at times. Laithwaite's return should help us out in that department, coupled with starting with Duffs at 9. Once again, in order to win, we need to get the starting pack right along with our 1,6,7,9 and 13. McNally, Brierley and Riddy seem to have a good understanding. They bombed a few on Sunday, but the signs looked VERY encouraging. I really hope Taylor is fit to play 13, as this will obviously help us start with solid foundations and tighten up our defence.

Brierley for me has to start, you could see as game went on Sunday he was getting more confident , talking alot more and directing the play and him being in the for me gives the likes of riddy the confidence that he knows if he makes a break Brierley will be supporting him

Agreed. Riddy, Brierley and McNally could be a superb trio for Leigh.
