Smacks of desperation to me. Get shut of Ellis before the season starts, then brierley, now find ourself without any halfbacks.
So let's sign a halfback from a fellow struggling team who can't even get in the side, Leigh have no interest in helping us avoid the middle 8s /MPG so allowing him to come to us speak volumes. Ridyard is Leigh through and through so he's no interest in helping us win either.
How is Farrell ever going to develop if he isn't given the chance?

Maybe he'll play alongside Ridyard at Magic?

Otherwise it's Farrell and Wood which is obviously too inexperienced a half back pairing at SL level.

We need to be beating teams around us and Cats are definitely one of those.

wouldnt be winning with wood and farrell at half back, too inexperienced

ridyard bags of experience and can get us around the field and kick our goals if we score

hindsight is a great thing with the ellis and brierley situations

Deaperate move from a desperate club at present.

The fact we are in a situation where we have to take a poor player who can't get in a poor team says it all.

Stone said before he will be bringing some players in who will help the club long term. Well all this does is help us till Brough gets back in 2 week if at all.

One side of the argument is Leigh obviously don't feel Ridyard will make a difference to win us a game or they wouldn't allow it, given we are competing with them for top 8. They obliviously want their man to get some game time in case they need to call upon him in a few weeks so he's match fit.

The other side of the argument could be in some way they maybe looking at it in the view of it may actually be better for Leigh if we beat Catalans, Wakefield, Warrington and St Helens as it keeps them within distance of top 8 if they get a couple of wins

That said we do need some experience to guide us around the pitch but I can't see Ridyard making a difference to win us a game so we may as well give Farrell the opportunity.

Problem is if we do lose the next 2 middle 8s is a definite. Which means we will be behind yet again with recruitment like this year and all we will hear next year is well we are some way behind the other clubs in terms of recruitment.......

When selected Riddy has done well, for whatever reason this season this season, Ben Reynolds (who couldn't get into our championship side last season) has been selected ahead of Martyn, despite him being average in most games. Most Leigh fans aren't happy Riddy wasn't being selected, and now this.

So what's would be your solution to the fact we have no experienced half back for next week?
