| Typical of many Leigh fans my mate said he's crap. Just exactly who would the majority of leigh fans be happy with? I don't think anyone would make them happy, i admit that over the last few years since Nanyn was at Swinton i've called him, mainly because i realised that he is exactly the kind of player we have wanted just watch how many breaks he makes and tries Stanton scores now. When the other new arrivals apear we may fin ourselves knocking the mighty Halifax off their pearch!

Penky & Goofy would be positive signings atm, without question.

Are the club courting him or what?

Trouble is, HB is a bind so all that might be irrelevant!
Good luck till we meet you in the play-offs

But, bar McConnell's try against Whitehaven in the NRC, we're pretty limp when near the line so, in that sense, I think it's a definite improvement.
Question is, will we be playing him as a centre or second row?

Think we have lots of options already at second row. Taylor, Armitstead, Higson, Rudd, Rourke and Leuluai can all play there if needed. I'd put him at centre. His size and power would make him a good strike player out wide.

| Think he's still banned as there haven't even been any reserve games since his ban was enforced.

Stanton will score zilch with Nanyn, he's a great NL plaTer and points machine BUT YOU WONDER WHY? He never passes the thing! Not that it makes much difference mind!

| I've never rated him at other clubs, but we'll see how he does for us. He hasn't played in this league for abit now and dare I say it's alot tougher than it was in it's past years.

| Never rated Nanyn and it's not a good signing for us IMHO. From what I've seen of him against us he went missing far too often in big games and contributed to McCormack's bottler tag. I guess now we'll find out if that was really down to coaching or not. IMHO in a very young squad we need players who'll stand up & lead by example, and I just don't see Nanyn as that sort of player. Also, if this is a case of bringing in a kicker to help with a decision about our full-back spot then IMHO that would appear like we were about to make another poor decision.
However, it's only on loan, & he's going to pull on a Leyth shirt, so good luck to him & I hope he proves me wrong. And trying to see some positives, at least now it'll be harder for fans to slag off Marshy & Hobbo's fitness...

Leyther1, he never went missing in the big games for us. That was Moran.

| Enjoyed ribbing him whenever he appeared against us. His record suggests he cant be as bad as we have all made out in the past (including myself). My main criticism as always been that he could/should have been better than he actually is and never used his size in defence as I would have liked him to, but could we ask for a better strike player from 20m out? He is not a wingers centre so Stanton and the like may not benefit too much but can slip the ball in the tackle when the opposition are struggling to get him down.
Lets see how much he has benefited from the Quins full time environment and lets hope he does to others what he always seemed to do against us.
Welcome aboard and show the cameras on Thursday what you are made of.
Who said loan players would not come to Leigh?
