I would have hoped that, under Millward, we would have got away from this shuffling the players around and playing them out of position instead of playing young players in their specialist positions. We have halfbacks who could have played against Wire, and who should play against Widnes and KR. How else are these kids going to be assessed at the top level? It does nothing for their confidence when a hooker plays at halfback, a winger at centre, a winger at fullback, a second rower at centre, etc, and they're left in the U20's. They'll just meander to the end of their contracts and be snapped up by a club who CAN see their potential and is brave enough to play them at the top level.

Give the kids a chance, Basil! You never know, we may uncover a gem!

^^^^^^
same as him.

I just watched the Millward interview after digesting the reality of our whalloping by the Wires. Brierley is mentioned in the interview, however Millward seems to be suggesting that he will remain at Leigh until the end of the year and he will review the situation for next year.

I sometimes wonder if Millward is trying to do us a favor, or perhaps he still has Leigh's best interests at heart! Mmmmm the jury is still out on that one!!

Why don't you come to the Leigh v Fax game on Sunday ?

Championship rugby and Non relegation league are not comparable' as you will see if you take the time to attend.

You've got the wrong end of the stick......I'm not comparing the two leagues....I'm comparing the relative skills of Bierley to our regular 1st team players.

Most of our regular 1st team players aren't nearly good enough to make the impression in CC1 that Brierley clear is doing. Hence if he can do a better job than they would in CC1, why wouldn't he do a better job in SL also?

ryan needs to be left where he is until the end of the season he needs to put on a considerable amount of weight to play in super leauge hes still only 19 so a year with us will do him the world of good hes not physically ready for the step up yet

Myth.

He weighs more than Sam Tomkins and he doesn't do bad for a scrawny little kid.

Think Brierley is on a season loan and not duel contract (changed a while back)......... don't think he can be recalled unless Leigh agree as its not week to week loan.

Leave him where he is to develop as it will do him more good than being in and out of the team at Cas.......look at some SL players who have spent time in the Championship on loan/duel - regular 1st team SL players now. It will benefit Cas more in the long run.

As I confirmed directly with Cas, he can be withdrawn back to Cas at 24 hrs notice for a first team place only.

Yes he is only 19, but there's an old saying....if you're good enough, you're old enough!!!!

Many of the guys in CC1 that he is currently playing against aren't exactly anorexic. As to his own frame, haven't we learned a lot from Robbie Burrows when it comes to a players size?? But I can't blame you for wanting to keep him at Leigh for as long as possible.

You Cas fans have nothing to worry about ,we at Leigh think the world of young Ryan and Paul Rowley is looking after him very well ,this lad will be a Star for you , for many years to come for me i liken him to a Young John Woods , but be patient let him learn his trade at Leigh .

Ryan needs to sat at Leigh for the remainder of the season.........please Ian !!!
