Thought he did ok for an elf.

Mort was on the wing - it was after Alstead went off.

I stand corrected....... think were starting to turn the corner TBH - if it wasn't for some dubious decisions from the ref I think we would have won at Haven.

We weren't good enough to turn a potentially winning position in to points when at 22-22, nowhere near enough cutting edge. The poor defence comes as expected these days. Lot of hard work still to be done before Sir Ian arrives.

If Millward does watch some of these video nasties, he'll soon realise Watson's ability and the cr@p he's playing with! I don't know if Millward has players in mind but, Watson is one of the few that will perform week in and week out.

i disagree ....speak to a lot of parents of players at reserve games and watson?rowley command that all plays go through him ...thus the other halfs that start cant or wont play their own game???
not my words but young players parents....and i know differant in reserves but all halfs there just play and take command....again just my opinion????

The thing is its been proven that if he leaves the field the team go to pot now whether its as you say all play must go through him and so when he does go off then theres no-one to take the reigns so to speak,now with a good 6 this could /would take your pick,change things .

We won't have the debate next season anyway, Watson is retiring after our last game.

Do you know this for sure? if thats right then a good 6 and 7 needed and reading Millwards coments he has already had a few names thrown at him from players agents ,well thats how i read it .

The club are appealing against the Joe Williams decision which will see him at the club next season and the Coyle brothers are joining.

Will Watson be kept on in another capacity ? apparently very good off the field as well as on.

I think he is going to Swinton as part of their coaching team.

Well good luck to him in what ever he does because i for one think he has been a very good servant to Leigh. Now i hope what you say about Williams comes off second time round this player will make a hell of a difference to our squad, and hav'nt seen much of the Coyles to make a comment but have read some on here and some are for others not so i'll wait and make my own mind up.

And doesn't it show

Always laugh at this argument. It sounds as though we play well with him on.
