Yeah course you do Jon....spew

| The thing I like about this signing is he fits our style.
He is not a glory boy who is trying to get back to the top, he has always been nearly there but not quite.
He has a lot to prove to people and has a similar attitude to BC in his workrate and his attitude. He has made mistakes on tv but I've seen much more of the speeding away from defenders or smashing it up from a deep kick and I like that in our style.
Players like BJB will be great when they get the ball in space and do fantastic things but I worry if they will find it hard on the back foot at Wakefield or with a Lyne inside that can't pass.
Riley will take the hit and come back harder
Good signing and good fit.

I don't really follow. The fact that I don't rate a player you have signed means I hope he doesn't succeed at Wakefield?
What an odd assumption.
I apologise for not rating him if it makes you feel better.

| A lot better than what we have thats for sure. Don't no why we keep saying Keinhorst is injured like hes a proven top player, Keinhorst is a big gamble and as for Lynn he has a long way to go to become a Super League player not sure if his heart is even in the game! Briscoe isnt even close. Hope we can extend Rileys loan when the month is up.

Gone ok so far? Cost us a try against Bradford and cost us 4 along with Briscoe against Wigan and had a match winning try against Salford he bombed. Christ glad to see what your standard of going well is

It's just the aura of condescending(ness) that surrounds pretty much every one of your posts

Why because I don't rate a player but hope he proves me wrong?! Interesting take on condescending.
In relation to Lynn who seems to be the brunt of a lot of stick he on average makes 2 errors a match so far this year according to the official stats.
On the other hand he is also by far your biggest meter maker with 398 (2nd place is just over 300) he averages 5 meters a carry more than any other player in the team he is leading your tackle busts by far and he has 1 missed tackle to his name.
In Riley you will not get the meters although he probably will be a bit busier. You will not get the busts, but you will still get the defensive problems and errors.
Last year in a more dominant team Riley was averaging 7m a carry compared to Lynn this year with over 11, making 2 errors a game in line with Lynn.
It is a big responsibility on the other members of the team to make up for the go forward that you will lose if Lynn does not get a game.
By all means have a go at my opinion, but I also think it is a little harsh on Lynn who whilst yes has made some eye catching errors also contributes more to the team I feel that Riley will in a positive way.
The reaction of the Wire fans is also fairly telling. Hardly sorry to see him go.

Wire may want him back pronto if Kevin Penny gets into the team

FWIW I don't disagree about Lynne although I missed the Wigan game. He's been singled out because he's seen as Agar's love child. That said although he has all the attributes someone posted before questioning his heart and there is some truth in that, although I think that is something he can work on

I just don't see what Riley brings to the table over him in relation to a positive contribution to the team effort, other than a bit more enthusiasm.
It just seems an odd move to me altogether, but as I said I hope he proves me wrong and is a success.

He can catch a ball, more than the others

| I hope that he goes well for you, he can finish when given a fair opportunity which isn't always the case at Wire with Monaghan on the other wing as the go to wide guy.
His frailties in defence are as much about playing outside Atkins IMO than his alone. This break from being our scapegoat might just be the thing he needs....hope so

| Not sure If this means BJB loan is now off we might still get him as will play in a number of positions and still would be stronger than what we currently have.
