You didnt go to the Fev game then?

What a load of utter tosh, Hartley was superb against Fev and is a great signing for us.

You must watch a different game than the rest of us do!!!!

I like Ridyard but then again I like Hartley!

But who's better?

There's only one way to find out!!

FIIIIIIGHT...............

Hartley is a Decent player, he's just got to stay fit and if he does I'm sure he'll prove his doubters wrong like he did against fev. He's definitely not lazy, I payed particular attention to hartley against barrow to see how he goes after hearing his uncle (Barry Briggs ex warrington and wigan player who I had played with at schoolboys) passed away before the barrow game and all credit to the kid, his line speed was very quick in defence, and he put himself about in attack too. Keep it up.

Hartley is good with ball in hand but slow as and carthorse and never looks capable of breaking the line, but not a bad player..
Ridyard is a clever player who can do the unexpected i would give him gametime to see if he can carry on where he left off last season against Halifax n Whitehaven where he was outstanding

To me there's been a major change in the way our halves are playing, they seem to be playing together, rather than what seemed to be one down one side and one down the other.

How many times does Hartley pass to Paul and vice-versa, they made 30m down the middle on Thursday just passing to each other, for this to become truly effective they have to build that relationship.

Hartley and Paul for the foreseeable.

you obviously study the game GLOW unlike others who want every 6 we have to be John Woods.

I'll keep faith in the pairing Basil feels works best it thats ok

What he said. I like Ridyard, but if we're going to have any sort of half-back partnership then we need to give it time to blossom.

Ridyard is a much improved player this season but on balance I agree with Glow.

your not Alf Ridyard are you by any chance

If you could get Ridyard's rugby brain and eye for a gap into Hartley's size and passing game you'd have one hell of a player.

However theres no need to drop Hartley cause what exactly has he done wrong? Nothing from what ive been watching. He may not score many tries but how many has Paul scored this season. None i beleive if memory serves.

If Leigh were to switch around the halves then the only way to improve would to be move Paul to 6 Duffy at 7 and Jock at 9.

Are you sayin im thick copper

Don't alter a winning combination is what I say. I'm sure Martin will get his chance if Tim's injury past catches up with him. Doesn't matter if he doesn't beat a man every time as long as he does a job thats gets us 3 points every game.
