Why on earth did we need Reynolds if this was going to happen?

pointless.

I thought Brown was still injured..

Now apparently fully fit but Wire prefer Matty Smith. So by my reckoning that makes 5 half backs- Brierley, Woods, Ridyard, Reynolds and Brown ready to make breaks for our speedy outside backs being oh er Marsh and Higson.

There must be a problem with Riddy.

Terrible signing he can’t possibly be match fit or achieve it in the number of games we have left !
A speedy anything would have been more beneficial to our squad !

Have we had a panic button fitted or perhaps found a new signature tune “We don’t know what we are doing”

He's not match fit, and goes missing in high pressure games.

Had his best days at Widnes but a very good signing at this level. Will be eager to get out and do a job. He’ll link up very well with Sau.

We are unlikely to figure in any high pressure games and Widnes fans were not very impressed with his fitness during his time with them !

We're at risk of running out of 'glasses half empty' in Leigh. Goodness, you're a negative lot! I for one think it's a great signing and I'm sure it wouldn't have happened were he not fit. Oh, wait I seem to have found a 'glass half full'.

Warrington must have known Brown was ‘fit’ however, they chose to bring Matty Smith in !

Agree a lot of negativity, some folk having a melt down, great signing imo

Pointless, and quite a depressing signing.

It's a strange one granted, but let's just wait & see what happens eh ?

I’m happy with the signing, he is a class player, I’m glad the signing deadline was Friday though,we may have tried to sign Ainscough,and Gleason from Rochdale.Ive just seen Charlie Hurley in Morrisons.

Was he not de-registered by Wire due to his injury, as such not able to play for them again this season

I don’t know perhaps someone can enlighten us on that ?

If we sign enough 'play makers' to create chances, we might then be able to utilise Brierley to do what he does best - finish them off!

Not sure where we select him though.....

Perhaps play Ryan Brierley on left wing??

Positive move for me.
-He’s an international halfback who would be guiding one of the best teams in the country around if he hadnt been injured. Fans have been crying out for a class halfback. Here he is.
-Fans have been crying out for some competition at halfback. Well we certainly have that now.
-He will have come at what I believe will be minimal cost.
-Fans have criticized some folk of the in game kick options taken by certain halfbacks. Brown will be a big threat ball in hand on the fifth tackle.
-if he wasn’t generally fit to play he wouldn’t be here. Read the press release. He says he’s fit, Warrington wouldn’t risk him if he wasn’t fit, and Leigh wouldn’t bring him if he wasn’t fit. True ‘match’ fitness will come quickly to a man of his experience and quality.
-come playoff time would you prefer him playing for us or against us. If he wasn’t here he would have likely gone some where else and be facing us in the playoffs.
Bottom line, positive move for a SL proven halfback, with enough time for him to be a real threat come playoff time. All at minimal cost.

Well said VL !

Beltin post VL.

Well VL let’s hope you optimism/ confidence that Brown will be the Conductor we Apparently require ?
If your the coach on Sunday who do you select from our four halfbacks (Woods fitness unknown) bear in mind Widnes and York are two vital games and your halfbacks are expected to play the entire 80 minutes?
