Having just watched the match at Bradford on Sunday once again our outside backs have been abysmal!
The amount of possession they squander is unreal, there doesn't appear to be any one of them capable of finishing or creating trys Cant remember when we last had 'backs' as inept as these?
Week after week they are turning over cheap possesion and, whilst we scored over point 40 points against Rochdale it should may more!
John Duffy needs to address their shortcomings because we are loosing to teams who are very ordinary.

Thornley has been very good week in week out

Thornley put down three excellent chances at York when just one of them would have brought victory!
He also lost possession which led to Rhys Evans picking up the Ball and running away to make the decisive score! at Bradford ! The problem is, its not just him in our backs
I'm only pointing out where we are consistently failing, i'm not suggesting we replace them because, I would not spend another penny on players this season its futile with Toronto able to out spend anyone

I cant remember the last time we had ANY ,big ,fast,centres or wingers full stop,

Adam Higson. I'd take him over our current wingers and at least one centre

Well there’s some right negative nellies on here, for me:

Thornley looks very good at this level, seems very strong in defence and makes good yards

Higginson needs game time to see if he is up to it - comes with very good raps

Marsh disappoints me, but when he signed I expected him to play where I think he would be stronger. On the plus side he puts plenty of effort in and helps the forwards out from dummy half an aweful lot

Pownall strikes me as a very average winger to be fair - but he’s prepared to put the shirt on and give his all and that’s good enough for me

Not really too sure what our expectations were but I for one ar3 more than happy with where we are at - and still wouldn’t write us off 3rd 4th or 5th

Enjoy the ride

And for those saying Marsh was slow, Evans is no slouch as we know and Marsh had to turn and chase him, and did not exactly lose any ground on him

Always has that slight hesitation after receiving the ball, which often costs him the line. Hopefully Duffs can coach that out of him.

Wow Atomic my observation of Marsh exactly!!
I've only seen the Bradford match on Bulls TV which,I was amused listening to their commentator. he had me doubting who was actually playing for us He kept referring to Thornley as Higginson even though Thornley's squad number is 3 with his name was clearly visible on the back of his shirt
Did Higginson get replaced ? because it was Bentley at Centre in the second half!
Thornley and Marsh have spent the majority of their careers in Super League and consequently I did expect more from them! It is still early days in this season and Fax, Bradford and York have all got to come to Leigh now so, lets try and be positive
Yours,
Negative Nellie

whats up with "johnny the jet" always thought he had more talent and character than higson

Most wingers nowadays have to be acrobatic to finish some chances, Marsh most definitely isn’t that but he does help our forwards out. Jonny is the much better finisher but has at least one howler of a mistake in him every game.

Really disappointed with Josh Woods and expected much better from someone who Wigan rate highly.

Higginson was dragged off by Duffy for a few poor mistakes.

We need 2 better line running back rows to hold defenders up before we will start to score many points against decent teams.

Well I dont know if you noticed but Johnny is back playing for Leigh but shares a similar common denominator as Higson.

ATTITUDE..

Edges have been poor from game one. Back rowers won't cure that.

Pace required.
