Brierley says he will be playing for Leigh on Sunday if selected. Good news.

Alan , im just saying make a change at half-back to see how things go , if it doesnt work , then change it , we can afford to experiment against the Hairnets ,Riddy has been a bit quiet of late , i know you are old enough to remember the Great man John Woods there was a Stand -off , what am i saying you probably remember the Ink Spots and Al Martino .

Martin has 'much more' to his game, Ryan is the 'quickest' thing I've seen a Leigh shirt for years.

2 'Great Players' not room for both in the starting 13 unfortunately, unless one plays scrum half.

Let's hope Fev knock out Cas on Saturday then Ryan will be able to play for us no matter what, as there won't be any need to worry about him being cup-tied.

Think Ryan is likely to play against Rochdale, so hope he starts.

Glad he did, ha.

And Cas wont need him in the cup

he is ours all season too !

ryan brierly was sensational today, 4 tries. ok it was against lower level team, but the tries still needed to be scored, message to rowley play this lad from the start when fit, by doing that you will give us a chance of picking up wins, like fingers crossed we will do on thursday v fax. duffy is a quality player, but he should be rotating with nico at 9, and allow riddy and ryan to develope what i think could be a wonderful partnership.

Steven young man we have ALL been calling for Ryan to be given a chance for a few weeks now , you are not the first myself i have called for McNally as his partner , but must admit Riddy had a good game on Sunday , though again as you say against a lower level team , still this might do his confidence a power of good , i hope so , as both will have to be on top form on Thursday .

Well maybe we should be starting with Pownall full back. Clay ont wing and Brierly at 7 with Greg at 6.

It could be worth a try Tony , im all for a bit of tinkering with the team to try out different options , but i do feel feel Riddy had a decent game on Sunday , but as you say why not try something different ,a change is as good as a rest.

And as they say in Cards ,you cant see a blind man .

You cant tinker with the team against a classy team like Fax, I suspect Ryan will be on the bench Thursday.
