Cokey Knows!
Delighted to see him back. Hopefully, what was in the past will now stay there, and everyone has learned something.
One thing's for sure - he will add class and pace. And that's a good thing.
Welcome back young man. I for one am delighted to see you back, with your fellow Leythers.

He’s on loan and doubt Leigh are paying his wages. Bradford couldn’t afford him for what he wanted (or his agent did)..No option with Salford as they hit max cap (budget) in Inu.
Best deal from agent go on loan and I’ll sort it.

| Ryan Brierley back on an initial one month’s loan.Adds some much needed pace to the backline.Always thought the 2015 side had the best back line of recent years with Ryan at it’s heart.

I dont really care where he's from or how long they have been around. Bottom line is we now have the fastest halfback in the championship, who we know can play the game, and we know can fit right in with his halfback partner. All that and he is exactly what we need, at exactly the right time, at an initial minimal cost.
Tough to see a down side.
Onward and upward. Welcome back Ryan, you have my support (for what its worth !)
I am really enjoying a season i was dreading not to long ago !

I’m not sure how you think he can fit right in,in a month given the handful of games he’s played for Toronto. It’s not the same Brierley that left us for a 5 year contract with Hudds.

So happy he’s back CL, this signing could make our season, I may even predict we will beat Batley on Sunday if he plays.

Re-phrased:- Just taking back what is ours - for the time being!  His agent has had a spectacular lack of success for his client lately.

It’s called debate. He’s on loan for a month,nothing more. He’s use to being in a full time environment now. Do you think he’ll take on a full time job to stay with us?
Not being negative, just realistic.

Did you not notice our halfback situation at the end of the Dewsbury game? Ryan will fill in nicely for us.

I would suggest his agent has made his client a sack full of money over the last few years, and that continues to roll in as long as he has his Toronto contract.
The fact that Ryan has not made a success on the field is not his agents fault.
Anyhow, it’s a big welcome from me - can only be a good addition to a depleted squad

Cokey I know the situation. But I don't bow down so easy as some do, just to fill a space. As for Richardson I would presume most of his training days where spent at Saints, given he is full time and paid by them.
Will Ryan fill in? Yes..

I agree with what you're saying Gunner. I just don't think with the handful of games he's played with Toronto is of benefit to us over a 4 week period, but if we have no halfback, then we have little choice but to take him on. Not sure what, if any, the other options where.

So under the circumstances,what would you have done different?

The question would be, was that the only available option? I can't answer that. If it was fair enough. Not sure what happens in 4 weeks time as that injury on Josh didn't look good.
I hope Mr Beaumont is enjoying this..

| So he's back *temporarily* !
If it's just to cover injuries in the short term then fine, I can go with that. If it is with a view to a permanent deal in future then I think it is another backwards step, a-la Emmit !

| I'm glad we've signed Brierley, hopefully he'll be our number 7 for the rest of the season.

| I will defer to anyone who can tell me otherwise but i doubt a beter option was out there right at this moment at what ever the price was (loan so not likely much)
We need a proven halfback with pace, right now, Ryan is that man.
Yes i would like to see him stay also, but for now id be stunned if a better fit for us existed now or in the next 3 weeks.
I am also very sure Mr B is very happy with the situation.
Always look on the bright side of life

| I dont what all the fuss is about.
October 2018, I would have laughed at the thought of Ryan playing for us again because of our financial plight, but come on....... He is a quality player at this level and we havnt really got much pace in the team really do we ?
I think DB is eyeing a top 5 finish, and why not ? None of us would have thought this at the start of the season.
I am sure it will become a season long loan, but who knows ? Is Degsy getting a sniff of the glory again ?

| Folk keep saying signing Ryan is a step backwards HOW .?Its the same as signing Riddy, McNally,Emmitt, Laithwate ,Pownall,Spencer,even Mickey Higham, all ex players,if that’s the case then we should be bottom of the League with all these backward steps.
Ryan brings so much to the team, pace , kicking , goal kicking, can score tries, and is a great support player, since he left. He has developed a ball distribution skill,and will add quality to your team.
For me wanting to return to Leigh shows his love for the Town, and we should make him welcome, I know I WILL.

| I would assume that Brierley is temporary cover for the absence of Richardson and that when Saints get Fages back then the loan would end.
