And from another Leigh fan I’d say any reprimanding sounds like a load of baloney - I’ve certainly not heard anything. No idea what went on with you and Macintosh but he’s waited for his opportunity at Leigh and took it big style and put hardaker down the pecking order (worked hard but been poor last few games), however with injuries picked up yesterday I’d expect him to be in the 17 for Thursday

I don't think McIntosh was going to be offered a new deal and Myler wanted to bring in Briscoe for experience so an early swap deal suited all parties.

Col, something has gone on, and i have no reason to lie. Hardaker wasn't dropped for nothing.

Or Lam is prioritising players he'll have next season

OMG!

you do talk -ollocks
Hardakers performances in the last few games have been poor.
he has either been rightly dropped due to performance or he has done something to be dropped which i guess we will know next week,but to say Lam is prioritising players he will have next season is a daft thing to say particularly when Lam Jnr looks likely to be leaving

What options do Leigh have at 7? Has Lachlan confirmed hes leaving? They have a few options at centre and have just signed another. It's not beyond the realms of possibilities that Lam is trying out options

Again, why do you get so angry?

He was not dropped because of Lam trying out options. How many more times does it need to be said? If you think I'm talking BS, that's up to you.

Don't suppose we'll ever know the full story unless it hits the press

He was dropped because he hasn’t been playing well enough to be in the 17, IF something else has gone on then fair do’s - out of interest who would you have played him instead of (sorry Hull fans, not really for this forum )

It may never come out, but Zak deserved to be left out, and now that McIntosh has stepped up nicely, Zak may never get in again. That point has been strengthened with us signing Bailey Hodgson, hence why I said in my original post, he might be joining you sooner than you think. That's if you want him early.

With Sutcliffe picking up what looks a potentially bad injury then taking Hardaker early might be a necessary move

My old mate Cokey knows his onions, Hardaker is a good player, but he’s not what we need, apart from his qualities, he’s no role model, bad decision for this guy, understandable as we were desperate but wrong.
