Great read - thanks for posting.

cheers faax!

If you read right at the bottom of the interview it does say "ideally you choose your own staff " and so on ,now i dont mind Rowley have said so before so i'm not getting at him it was just an interesting read.

It's what is called a leading bit of journalism. The first is a bit nasty which rolls onto the next that is suggestive. Went to college that reporter. Thats why it makes me laugh when people say that the media doesn't sway peoples decisions during elections or to a worse extent someones trial.

Can we frame Mr Ball's prediction!

Comments from the Halifax camp seem popular for board signatures at this moment in time

Balls comments are fair, we know how good basil is and anticipate better should injuries go our way.
Fax have packed a team full of flair players, mainly from overseas which is a shame for such a once proud heartlands club, and are rightly favourites

I am certainly happy to see IM comments about Tim Hartley, for so long Tim was up there with the best talent in the north west from 13-18, up to him to so that promise or he is off. Has the talent but attitude is what lets him down i hope he can make an impact for leigh.

I think Ball's prediction is a fair one, and personally would take 5th or 6th position now.

Leigh too finish top Four.

Hope you are right as that would be a brilliant achievment.

We have the same Nucleas as last season, and only finished 7 points behind Barra, the other teams havent much improved themselves either....

I wouldn't be suprised if you guys got a top 5 finish.

I would

I think once big Duffy gets going, you guys will suprise a few people.

He's not that big anymore he's lost a load of weight

Ok when small Duffy gets going.

They really can not say anything else can they ? Its common sense,

And true

I am putting a bet on at the weekend that we will finish in the top three with a side bet to win it and a little flutter to be in the NRC final. We have a young team that has been together for a bit with a coach and a halfback of immense tallent and experience. Not sure about Hartley but I am sure about Ridyard. Paul, Ridyard, McConnell and Duffy are going to set this league on fire and our pack will be like the durracell bunnies, still going when the other have stopped.
Come On You Leeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeigh.

You think so but is it? Like The Watcher wrote before they can hardly say anything else, can they.

Well after speaking to them both I KNOW SO.

Look forward to playing leigh and so glad you stayed up.Widnes v Leigh i have my derby game now.

We all look forward to it as well.

The Watcher repeats the answer he gave some time ago, that they can hardly say owt else can they especially to a known message board contributor. Time will tell whether or not they do get on or if Millward did want Rowley as his number 2 & that it wasnt a stumbling block as to whether he took the job if he (Millward) couldn't name his own 2nd in command.

Who said I ASKED them? The Moaner takes too much for granted re my interview and investigative tecniques, and knows beggar all about from whom and how I get my information but as it mostly accurate, I stand by my statement, if it had been anything BUT the truth I wouldnt have said anything at all, because unlike The Moaner I don't do negativity or rumours.
