I agree, he's been playing well recently.

Local BBC radio have just said he is out for the season .... ?

We will have to re name him Lazarus

Getting back to something like? He lost the collision nearly every time he took it up yesterday. He looks very lightweight this year and I haven't seen anything in the recent games to suggest an improvement in form.

Yep getting back, he's not back to where he wants to be, but the teams defence is better when he is on. The problem with GB rugby league has always been that we only look at players attack and not appreciate the other stuff they bring.

And as for lightweight. Are you Ngb4c in disguise. Andy Raleigh is a Midget!!

Don't really understand what you're saying here.

I have to say that Raleigh has been prop 4 out of 4 and has really struggled all year.

His last two games before Leeds were better but still not one of the better of the players taking the field.

He has lost far more collisions than any of our other 3 props this year and after last years form it's been painful to watch as you know he is a hard worker.

I like Raliegh but its just not happenning this season for him. Still time yet if he is clear from injury but I hope we don't regret handing him a contract for 2014 whilst been way off form.

Since its a facial injury he might be training in the gym alot and hopefully put some weight on!

Then try facing the pitch then, Raleigh has been immense in recent games.

Think you're very wrong on this one TBH. Since his return from INJURY he has been on excellent form.

His season up until the last four games was ruined by INJURY not by anything Raleigh has or hasn't done.

I'd sign players like Raleigh up on a yearly contract until they say they have had enough - you simply can'y have too many Raleigh type players IMHO.

^ this.

Of course actually noticing the great contributions of a player like Andy takes an appreciation of skills other than those displayed by the regular headline makers! How many on here were surprised when he was voted players player of the year last year, as well as coaches POY?

I'd say since his first return from injury he was very poor and was clearly not fit. He was consistently poor in defence and collision for a 4? Game period.

His more recent return he has been better the last few games but immense? That's pushing the boundaries to the stretching point I think. Has been more solid but still easily outshone by all 3 of Amor, Poore and Wilkes.

He was looking of late to be scratching some form together but he has been pretty woeful other than about the more recent 2 games this year and has looked most of the season unfit and pretty weak in collisions.

Opinions differ and I can accept that , been hoping Raliegh would hit some form like last year but he just hasn't for me. Injuries fitness or whatever it is but I'd have Amor, Poore and Wilkes all ahead of him at present.

I hope he is ok and can turn it around. I like him and will cheer him like the whole team as always on game day but at present he isn't worth that contract renewal on his 2013 performances.
