Neither have new clubs lined up and both are travelling for our match over the pond this weekend.

If Duffy still rates them however is a separate matter. In the case of Ridyard it is important to remember he will be 33 next year. Who really knows ?

Who really knows indeed H..

Thanks for the update.

I believe we only have one half back, Ben Reynolds, currently contracted for next season. There were rumours about Danny Craven coming, and that would be good.

However, I don't think Ben has the creative ability of Martyn, (Ben has other good qualites IMO) but we would struggle to find a better full back than Gregg.

Déjà vu Alan.. Yet again.

All it really needs is a statement from the Club.

Of all the players at the club I think these two are without doubt the most talented, I personally would not want these two to leave this club until they retire !

Don’t hold your breath.

Well lets see how the marketing department get round this one..

To say what exactly??

All players as I understand it were on one year contracts at the beginning of the season - negotiations no doubt ongoing with a lot of em, others no doubt told they will not be retained

Not sure we should be announcing anything with the play offs looming

At the end of the day all we have seen is a comment in a RL rag, which does have a reputation of not being 100%, mainly because it gets most of its stories off forums like this

Play it down all you want. It's makes no difference if the article is true or not, the club should respond and put it to bed.

Perhaps the club put it out to remind them they are playing for a contract if nothing else

Harold, Danny Brough is 37 , Kevin Brown is 35, Danny McGuire is 36, Anthony Thackery is 33 and Scott Murrell is 33 !
All these players, with the exception of Brown, have been mainstays of their respective teams. 37 year old Brough was preferred to 27 year Ben Reynolds at Wakefield !
Don't lets see Riddy and Gregg depart again they both play with a passion when wearing the Leigh Shirt, there wasn't must passion in our team when we played York!

Agree with this.

Perhaps there is disruption in the camp again. Most certainly showing on the park.

Happy Birthday Scott Murell 34 Years Young Today !!

A comment from the club advising us that despite rumours in the press, no discussions have taken place or decisions made about any of our players who are all vital in this crucial end to the season, would be a welcome statement.

You could add Dom Brambani 34 and Paul Sykes 38!!

Both of these players are vitally important to their clubs !

Are we not going full-time next season? And didn't Greg leave Bradford because he didn't want to be full-time. It may not be Duffy's decision.
At the moment we only have Riddy who can really 'boss' the game, but I couldn't honestly see Riddy playing most games next season. It depends who we get to replace him, but we need stability and authority IMHO.

Thought we were going part full-time, if you get what I mean? :

I concur with your on-field suggestion.

Above anyone else we miss Gregg the most when he is absent, the role he plays chiming into the line right or left when the team is on the offensive results in most of the tries we score.
As for Riddy I will forever appreciate all he has done for the club and the pleasure he has brought whilst at the club, I feel he is finding time catching up with him and he is very noticeably losing the pace both physical and speed of thought and action that has been his trade mark.

I seem to remember the word “hybrid” being used Alan.

That's the one.

Whos running on gas and who electric then ?
