yes, and some leigh fans say it his best position

He played Leigh, Leeds & Huddersfield for more money. He is already upsetting the Huddersfield applecart due to him discussing money with people.

I would expect some drama in Huddersfield in the coming weeks.

That's the key Brearley, time, we need to give him time to settle and to learn our club, our players and then we can bringing him on how we want him to be, but i suspect there is going to be a lot of unfair expectation on him sooner than later.
our fans don't seem to have any patience, so if he doesn't rip it up in his first 3 games expect him to be slated.

how so?

Well if the plan is Wood and Ellis then It's a very poor one, They are both honest triers but are not going to take the Giants to the next level. Also if the plan is to let Brough go then somebody at the Giants wants their bumps feeling, He is still the best player we have had in decades, and needs someone to play alongside him not replace him, I can't believe anyone at the club is quite that stupid, unless of course they are happy to see people drift away.

Brierley could be the Ideal player, with an eye for the gap and the pace to take it on, His supposed weakest point is his tackling, that just means he needs a really good ,mobile LF to take care of him, like the Wild bull used to do with A Murphy.
As Meast has said he will need to be given time, but anybody with a strike rate like he has had, has some talent.

He has hardly played full back at all in his 4 and a bit years at Leigh. I think he has played there once or twice but I can't recall which games.

A lot of people do think that full back would suit his style of play though. Would remove the expectation of a kicking game and the organising role which aren't really his strengths.

He is lightning fast with great acceleration. Reads a game very well and is always there in support for a break of half break and if you can get it to him in space, it's game over. Not many will catch him even in SL. Got a very good eye for an interception and, again, rarely gets caught if he pulls it off.

He rarely plays at the line which can be frustrating. He tends to wait for a gap instead. 90% of his tries seem to be scored without a finger laid on him. Kicking game has improved over the years but is nothing special. Defence is suspect with a tendency to shoot out the line but that would be negated by playing him at Full Back.

He is an odd player to categorise, he has played nearly all his career at 7 and yet his passing game and kicking game are not all that spectacular. He is an unbelievable support player with great speed and a knack for scoring a lot of tries. I think he could be a big success at Hudds and at Full Back.

Currently very p****d off at how he has treated my club and glad he has gone as his position was untenable with his comments and actions in recent weeks. However I will watch his career at Hudds with interest and once the dust has settled I think I will be wishing him all the best for his future.

Hope it turns out to be a good deal for all parties. Also, I am glad he has gone to you lot and not Leeds!

I'm sorry, Is he really the hottest young property in the british game?

Essentially yes

There a young lad called Ben Reynolds who is much better....

So much for the done deal for 2017 on the Leeds board lol, nicely done hope he goes well for you but not when you play us of course.

yes

I think the reason we landed him was two fold. First of all Leigh were approached in the proper manner and with respect.
Secondly I reckon rowley played a massive massive part. Rowley had little respect for hetherington and Leeds due to how they treated him as a young player. He had a lot of respect for Huddersfield following his short time with us and has talked about the professional way he was treated when at hudds.
I have my misgivings about the length of contract given he is unproven at SL level, but time will tell.

Leeds/Hetherington - Paul Rowley ? , when where and what

Keiron Purtill could well have been a factor too. Still has strong ties with Leigh and I know he is well respected in the town and around the club.
