The Watcher would leave Higham out for what is going to be a very tight affair. The Watcher believes the amount of penalties Higham gives away around the ruck area could prove crucial to the result of this game. The Watcher would like to wish all the players selected for the match the best of luck & would ask them to try & cut out all the silly penalties we seem to give away at important periods of big fixtures.

Now I am not the biggest fan in the world of McNally but what a couple of Richard Craniums we have in Jukes and Cunningham, McNally is a very expierienced full back, he is used to observing the other team attacking and can call defensive directions, he is superb under the high ball and knows all the plays in linking up in attack, and his one on one tackles have been good, on the other hand I cant say that i have been over impressed with Hampshire when he has played Full Back, if he had been any good when he played there earlier on in the season he would have made that position his own, so why on earth is he suddenly deemed good enough for this probably the one of the biggest games in Leigh's 122 year history, must be because he did OK at London, I am the wrong side of 60 but I could have done OK at London at Full Back. I cant see that he is including Hampshire in the squad over McNally to play Brown at Full Back.For the sake of all us fans, I hope the coaches gave got this right, although it fills me with dred even before a ball is kicked.
Also Pellisier must be as sick as a chip, as I said previously in an earlier thread I think we need energy out there on Saturday and I would have run with Hood and Pellisier.

Yes Cokey again I say lets hope they have got this right, I just cannot get it out of my head the dropping of Greg for Ryan (if that is the case) I can't see that there is no logical reason for it, i wish someone could point out to met any logic in it, can only be a coaches hunch that Ryan is going to have a blinder.
But, playing hunches has not been a strong point of Cunninghams, if it had been he would still be at Saints, and I would bet that throughout the course of this season there has not been one Leigh fan who has not scratched their head in wonderment at some of the selections Jukes has made when other's have been available.

Gutted for Gregg
He's worked hard to get back and didn't deserve to be dropped
Hampshires best games have been on the wing
Then again I wouldn't be surprised to see Gregg play as we could have included brown and Langi etc to throw Catalans off their game plan
We've changed line ups quite a lot this season from the 19 named

I agree Lynda - let's wait and see the 17 tomorrow afternoon. |
