see another expert speaks (Or should that be export)

I like Morty at fullback but also think that Donlan is wasted at Centre also, could we not try Stu at 6, however this is Leigh and we play second rowers there lol

Wasnt Stanton playing 6 at Wigan??

Be interesting to see how many points concedeed when he plays at fullback to?? He`s a great attacking player but last line of defence???

It could be worse, we could have Michael Platt at Bradford as our fullback.

402 points conceded....and every point his fault

typical response from this forum do any of you read others comments???? NO is the answer, where did i blame all the points on him????? oh thats right i didnt oh and i didnt slate him either....I just happen to think he isnt as good at one on one tackling as Donlan....!!!
You really do need to actually read peoples comments instead of throwing toys out of the cot!!!!!

Lighten up please, it's a " tongue in cheek " observation.
Comments appreciated and no offence intended.

You can tell you don't post on her very often!! It's just an internet forum, chill out we are all Leythers here with the love of Leigh RLFC. If you think our hard done by just look at some of the stick Leigh4Eva, Frankb and Fred Parky have got over the years!

All justified n'all

I can't believe this thread.

Mort - is a player with huge potential, playing in one of the few specialist positions left. If positioning is wrong, you will never be good, this can only be gained through game-time. Someone suggested playing Mort on the wing, is he fast enough? The only way Mort will have a chance of getting the experience is through playing first team rugby. Lets remember how Hull KR managed to get promoted and stay up, instead of repeating our past mistakes!!

donlan at fullback for me, mort goes down to easy

I thought Donlan might have been tried at stand off by now... we've had a go with everyone else and he has the skills.

i think mort mynt b good at half back, if i had to pick anyone it would have to b marshy

I agree. If we're not persevering with Ridyard or bringing someone in Marsh is the best option we've got.

Riddy is being targeted too much, Its bad enough having one pivotal player targeted all the time (Watto) but in his own way and his experience he can handle it, but a green kid likeRiddy can't, so Yorky boy is obviously pulling him from the front line for a bit as he's 'shellshocked' at present. Do some of you actually think on here?

So how does Riddy stop being "green" and gain the gametime experience Watson has?

I would like to see Donlan have a game at Stand Off, he has a good sidestep,good hands,pacey and is a good defender which, makes me wonder why some don't think he can play Stand Off?
If hes not tried S/O then its Fullback definately. Mort is adequate in that position however, Donlan has Super league experience at F/B and is probably, our only candidate in their respective position for a Super League team!
I also think Ridyard should not be discarded.

Bench spots and reserves, see simply innit

anyway nowhere did I say i agreed with yorky boy

Steve Donlan had many a cracking game at SO instead of Woody



Its better than having a pack man SO, thats for sure!!

Ahh but that was Steve, Stuart is nowhere near the same player.

Whilst I firmly believe Stuart is most effective at full-back, he did start his academy career at Leigh, at stand-off.

I can just see him playing there. He's got good hands, a good rugby brain, a decent step and a fair turn of pace (as he showed at Cas).

I'm very surprised NK hasn't tried him there already if he feels Ridyard isn't quite ready yet.

donlon is our most gifted player so lets see what he can do at stand off.

if it is not working we move him back to no 1.
