You know what, from what I am hearing from Bradford. I would not totally rule out young Gregg being a Leigh player again in 2019 just yet.

I think it is now highly possible Gregg will be in a Leigh shirt next season. Not quite a done deal yet mind.

I, for one, would welcome him back. There are very few others who can time an incursion into the line, like he does - and he always did work well with Ridyard. He is also a good organiser of those in front of him. I was a regular critic of his defence, when he was with us before, but none of our full backs since him, have been any better in that department.
With his wife's unfortunate illness, Leigh would be the best bet for him, too.

Our (Bulls) 2019 shirt numbers have just been released this week and Gregg has number 1. If we were selling, that is a strange thing to do.
That's not to say it ISN'T happening; it may be that the Bulls are playing unaware, as Gregg is one of our stars (at the moment), and a selling point for ST and the new Flex-ticket thing.
IMO it seems unlikely though.

Does beg the question, I suppose. But the Leyth vibe is on the way up again, so anything is possible.

Adam Higson - currently with Toronto - formerly with Leigh (twice) and Swinton. According to Wikipedia, he is 31 years old, 6 foot 4 inches, and 15 stones 6 lbs. (hey, there's that big fast winger we have been craving for years!) He has been prone to do some crazy things, but can play when he sets his mind to it. In my opinion, better than George Tyson.
Don't know what the 'J' stands for!

The 'J' stands for Jane as in 'Calamity Jane', such was some of the stupid defensive decisions he was so adept at making with a recurring quick turnaround.
I think Tyson would be a better aquision (albeit if he's as reported in Aus it ain't going to happen) than Higson, George is all heart, gives his all, tough and quite skillful, and as someone as pointed out being top try scorer with a 15 for the season is not a bad return for a team at the bottom.

Those tackles you mention looked very good when he connected, but for every one he tackled he missed one and left a huge gap.
Saying that though the best tackle he ever made was at Fev when he chased his opposing winger for 60 - 70 yards and tackled him and knocked the ball away when he was all but scoring

Thanks for that I did think it was Higson with some of the comments but never understood the J part so thought it might not have been. After seeing his Twitter rants not so long back can't see him coming back while Beaumont is there. That picture of him going to smack Danny Williams from behind will live long in my memory haha. Got to say what a start to the championship season that year that game was. Atmosphere was electric

You might remember this shot on Gareth O'Brien at the MW in 2017.
