Well I would like to see Rangi and Ryan in the halves. There should be no blind loyalty shown, which I think may be happening

Neither as creative as Ridyard though.

Don't think it's blind loyalty so much as recognising Ridys organising skills that rangi and kez don't have - plus rotating the halves

Let's see how Ridy and rangi go then Ryan comes in if they play poorly ?

That's what happened last year and we paid for it in the play offs.

It's only my opinion which is either right or wrong.

We still looked disjointed in the halves today.

Foster was a breath of fresh air.

We made a very average team look quite good today.

The simple things were better today, but not good enough
.

For some of the game Lewis was in the halves with Ridy at centre

I thought today's performance was a bit patchy, just after half time Oldham looked very tired,our forwards were hammering them , Rangi was trying his best and looked good at times, Lee Smith looks a very good signing, my Man of Match Harrison Hansen, but Hoppy took his tries well.I'm happy with a win and think we will get much better soon, hopefully for Bradford and Fax away.

Lee Smith looked the part and fitted in well.We looked lazy at times but improving and points in the bag.

I thought you would have put 50 past Oldham without reply to let in 18 us not good defending.

Rob Lui did more in that 80 minutes against Saints than Chase did in two years. Despite moments of brilliance we won't miss him.

So.

I know, and although foster looked good in the halves, ridy didn't look good at centre IMO

Hokey you have so much to say , maybe too much.

I find it so hard to believe that you can afford to drop your most potent attacking weapon, a 30 tries a season player , that is a sign of a Coaching Genius.

i HAVE IT ON GOOD AUTHORITY THAT RYAN WILL BE OFF TOMORROW

To the gym to do some weight

So.

Hokey you are my hero.

Are your posts real or tongue in cheek?

Ryan was dropped today, for what reasons?We don't know, I would pick Ryan every week , but again why was he dropped?

If (and it's a big if) Ryan does go, he should go with the best wishes of every Leigh fan. The club have given him a lot, and he's given 100% in return. If he thinks he's ready for SL and wants to go now and someone has come in for him - and if Derek is prepared to let him go - good luck to him.

People said after Rowley left that no coach is bigger than the club. The same is certainly true of players. The speculation is getting boring, and it all seems to have started since he signed up with his new agent

Someone had to be dropped or not selected, depending on how you look at it.

The club doesn't really need to give a reason

Smith was brought in to play at full-back, and what a great job he did.

No room for 3 half backs whatever folk may think.

Ryan was made the scapegoat in my opinion but that's my opinion

I didn't see a massive improvement from today's combinations.

We played a weaker side, no disrespect, ran on a better pitch and completed better and thought the forwards were better.

Next week's selections will be interesting again.

The coach makes those decisions Charlie. In front of where I was sat today were Spencer, Paterson, Brierley, Worthington, McNally wasn't far away and a couple of others. Our next three fixtures are against the other 3 FT sides, maybe that had something to do with the choices today.

LF ,whatever your opinion was ,the fact is Ryan was dropped, I prefer to listen to Jersey Centurion who is a relative of Ryan's ,if he doesn't know then neither does Charlie

correct about a weaker side but I would always play a guy who is a 30 tries a season player, and for me will continue feeding off Rangis passes.
