You say there is little difference I disagree, hookers regularly top the tackle count in a game , make most meters and potentially most tackle busts , can Reynolds do that I don't think so I see Reynolds as a creative player providing good balls for 2nd rowers and centres to run onto'"
No I wouldn’t play Kez there but we’ve played BB at HB on quite a few occasions, there’s always some players who can’t change roles and Reynolds may or may not be one of those, I’ve said I’d like to see him being given a go and you disagree, which is fair enough.

| There is some overlap between all those playmaker roles, full back, half back & hooker but Renynolds is already able to play half back and full back very well (just not quite as well as our current half backs and full back) & while we've got Foster doing quite well & coming on at hooker along with Bob & Penky doubt we need to require Renynolds to play another position. He'll be cover for half the team before long

May be the only way he's going to get a game!

He may well get to that lofty height too!
Still so young and full of potential. Great on-field attitude also.

Yes potential is there in Foster,and no doubt at some point come the time he will also be out on loan.Ben will return a better player when the time comes.
Both players are in learning curves,and when the time is right,they'll both be top players.To recall Ben from loan for no reason,would'nt help his development in the same way giving Lewis 80 mins wouldn't help his development..

Not sure I agree about the loans. What are the chances of the players on season long loans at Barrow playing for leigh? Foster should get a chance over the next couple of months while Penky's out, if he does well, then he should be considered genuine competition for Penky and Beswick for a place in the 17.
Understand that Reynolds is getting more meaningful games for Doncaster than he would our reserves, but main point is that he should be available to recall. If he isn't, then the strength in depth is gone. If there is any risk with players that went off last week (Ridyard, Brierley, Pownall, Worthington), then he should be recalled to be in our 19 man squad, so can play half back or full back. Then, same applies, if he does well, should be seen as competition for places rather than backup for injuries.

This season there's little chance, next season if they've improved, as they should, then there'll be better chance of them playing for Leigh. They're all young developing players, players for the future on loan at Barrow, not quite ready for where we are but very well could be one day soon. I'm sure if Foster does well & is better than Bob or Penky he will be not just considered by played.

Think he can be recalled now. Rules on loans, I think, are they go out for 1 month then it works on a week-by-week basis and can be recalled at any time after that 1st month.

| Once the month is up we can call Reynolds back anytime with 48 hours notice I think.
