Glad to see Jon sign, quality centre and one of the best in the Championshp. It seems as though we more or less have our threequarter line sorted now too, with just a wing spot to cover. Worrincy?

I think we'll probably see a new face come in too to liven it up further.

1. Miles
2. Lee Paterson
3. Goddard
4. Haley

Good news i hope his form improves now his future is sorted out, would like to see him score more tries than he does, and up until recently his defence as been solid, but the way he was playing against batley i was sure he was leaving

would like to see a new addition in the backs though

This is superb news. Been a little bit out of the limelight but is re gaining his form and confidence following injury. A few more tries in the play offs will do the trick. Really pleased about this as he would obviously have been a target for other teams. Well done Jon and Fax!

Made my day!

good solid centre (batley game a one off) another centre needed .

5. Dodd?

Please god no. A major step backwards IMO.

I would prefer the young winger from Batley or Ian Mort if Leigh get relegated.

Too late, he's signed for Widnes. www.widnesvikings.co.uk/view_news.php?ID=631 Goddard is another good signing for us. Just needs to get some confidence & stop shooting out from the line in defence.

As long as he leaves his Diddy Men and Tickling sticks at home!

Tickle sticks are mine



Heard he was linked with you guy's and despite being on a 2yr deal he wasn't confirmed as staying at the POM last night!

Good signing. He has had a disappointing season by his standards but being the professional he is, he will make amends.

yes this is the signing i was really looking out for. we havent seen the best of him yet and he will be awsome when we do.

One Jon Goddard.

Another Vikingman prediction goes to the wall.

Yessssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss.

Nice one, he is one of the best centres in our league, he like the rest of the team just needs to find his form again, hopefully he will in the Play Offs!

chuffed he has resigned nice bloke.

On the other hand you have and he aint that good?

Needs a stand off that gives him quality ball then we shall see eh?

exactly what i thought!

if we do get brannighan as rumoured he would supply quality organised ball to our 3quarters...wev scored more our tries this year down the middle, which is supprising the quality we have out wide

goddard in space with good ball is the best centre in our league without a doubt...hence why widnes would love to have him!

hardies vikingman!

Don't go barking up that tree again! Tohe get's angry

Don't go barking up that tree again!

Nah he just gets tired quickly. Vastly overated even in National League.
Must be some mugs about to pay him big bucks, bit like Nanyn both going downhill fast.

Fantastic!!!!

Hope one day he can return to face us at Craven Park with you lot getting into Super league. Was always a good player, one that many were sad to see leave

Cheers mate...nice to hear that from KR!

he may miss a few yea.... But vastly overated? How do you work that one out? His quality stands out a mile!

Plus I don't feel his wage will be too high and he'll prob get some money as a 'coach' with academy which will more than benefit us long term!

For a minute then i thought i had gone back in time to 1996.

Hes not even the best centre at Widnes.

Jon has had a few quiet weeks culminating in that dreadful display over at Batley which even Jon was big enough to come out and say was not good enough so lets hope this 2 yr deal gives him the security to shine once again.
