Ben is also with us next season.

Excellent..Twenty three to go.

Better than playing RU in Scotland

Keep them coming

Excellent if true, stepped up as the season has gone on and seems to turning into a very good player - deffo one to keep for me

Prediction. Ridyard 6, (Drinkwater/Walsh 7?), Reynolds 13 for 2018. This year we've struggled for direction and points relying mainly on Drinkwater. In the Championship, this combo could be pretty potent!

Ben has stated that he wants to stay at Leigh according to the interview he gave in the League Express. I hope that he gets a contract with us for next season. His age, and his SL experience with us this year will be invaluable as we progress from here.

Really??!!`

Aye, take it you feel different

He's definitely a better player now than he was at the start of the year.

I'd go with that..He's looking the part now.

It's a learning curve Rugby League and Reynolds will be a huge asset in the Championship.

Lets hope he doesn't get loaned out for bums on seats.

I'm not a fan of Reynolds however, if he has stated publically that he would like to remain and help get us back into SL then I applaud him. He'll never posses the ability and creativity that Ridyard possess and, if Riddy is fit and able for the challenge he would be my first choice!

Sorry Kirky, can't have turmoil..Although your opinion may possibly be correct.One feels that candle has already burnt. Plus we should be building for SL again. Hopefully the fee gained from Goodwin WILL contribute to youth structures and not an over priced player,with only a pay day in his head.

As I'm not privy to how the 'Candle' was lit, ill accept your information however, we will need a more creative half than Ben! If Mortimer stays he would be perfect in the role

Sadly, there will be turmoil with whatever players come in if we have a setup with these 5 coaching staff and an owner that likes to be involved with the players.

All 5 have failed. They have to accept that as a collective.

We need a New Coach IMHO !

All 5 have failed in 2017. But one person has to be responsible / accountable for performances on the field in 2018, there might be a role for all 5, but whoever is accountable for results should be allowed to decide that based on what he needs.

I'd get rid of the lot of them.

Some 250k pa wasted on too many cooks.

Get us a quality aussie and save 150k in the process. Our Rugby under Jukes is bland and stereotypical. Cooke could do well but there are toops many egos.

I would as well, with exception of keeping Purtill to look after the academy / reserves. He seems to be a respected coach and that's what the players below the first team need. Someone with a shred of man management skills is needed for the first team.

Sadly, I can't see us moving away from the design by committee model we have now.

I am inclined to agree. New impetus is required.

Brand new start. Brand new outlook.

Harold Rigby Jnr knows.
