By the looks of your username it seems you regularly touch a nerve, a rather small one at that icon_wink.gif

As with Brown this year and Littler being shipped out

There has been an obvious lack of depth at centre this year '"



Those 2 comments make a mockery of your argument!

if we weren't well off there , Stu wouldn't have gone elsewhere!

On the contrary alot, you are showing a complete lack of knowledge of the team you claim to support. Had you watched the reserves you would know Pitman played a full year of 20s in 2013 and came to the club as a wing man, Hankinson likewise has been filling in at centre but played the majority of his RL for Salford last year featuring against us as a back row forward.

Indeed we've had to press winger/back rower Higson and also Kurt Haggerty into service in the centres so far this year due to lack of out and out centre options in the squad.

Littler been a legend but wasn't making the grade or side and reading these pages last 12/18 months most wanted him dropped or played in the forwards due to lack of pace.

Catch up lad we sold woody to Bradford and Des to wire you know pal.

Welcome to Leigh Centurions, Michael.
Looking forward to seeing you with a Leigh shirt on !

p.s Why is it when we sign somebody, some Leigh fans decide to argue/be personal. Could we be actually doing any better than someone might have predicted 1 year ago.... d040.gif d040.gif d040.gif

We aren't recruiting a SL team, we are recruiting a squad to get us there and that squad is young but will develop so we need some experience
We have the beat of this year signed and they pushed Leeds all the way
I still see a back row prop and outside back to come in but delighted Bullock has signed

Just over one year ago we couldn't afford to pay a part time teams wages and we're heading for oblivion but some people forget that all to quickly.

As it says in the press release,he is part of the squad and can cover a variety of positions if needed,so is NOT nailed on for any starting line up and will have to work hard to get into the team like everyone else.

Must admit that I really haven't heard of the lad, but like many times before Paul and his team have taken on players and turned them into class team members so I can't see this signing being any different. He is going to pull on the Leigh shirt so that will do for me.

Good player. May have lost a bit of his pace but still has his brain and lots of experience. We are moving from having an excellent first 17 to having lots of depth, both of which we will need. Would be a starter in centre for me but reckon I would be in a minority there.

Signed after Harris took over as cover after proving his fitness at Crusaders, think he played against us?
Played for Bradford for a number of years before that and made the monthly dream team as centre in 2013, gives us McNally, Platt, Brierley and Pownall to cover FB. Pownall Higson Kay platt and pitman the wings. Platt pitman Armstrong Higson and Hankinson the centres. So that's 9 outside backs for 5 starting spots

Which is exactly what we will need to compete. Next season will be a lot more intense than this.
