He had a stormer against us over at Batley. We struggled against him all afternoon.

Bracek dropped by his own admission.
In the end it looked as though we could have done with him.

Best bring your binoculars Charlie, will be well down in France.
Mind you for a bloke who asked Bentleyman for a sea view, you must have good eyesight.
Great to see him today wearing his Doncaster ARLFC shirt and as far as I could see no bag.
I know I have said this before and I know it's off thread but what a great ambassador for Rugby League, at the Keepmoat yesterday for Seagulls v Batley.
For him, none of this sheite about "I'm not going untill? or unless?"
Anyway Charlie back to it, I'm not too sure about us beating Dewsbury, Thaks, who should never have been allowed to leave may come back to haunt us.
Have a good day, everyone.
Up the Fax, up the game of Rugby League, and up yours the RFL.

It seems strange that one of our most consistent performers has been dropped the last 2 games, only making it last week as 18th man.

Can only go by what he said, spoke to him in the chip van queue, asked him why he was not playing and he said and I quote " not played well for the last few games"
He seemed ok with that.

John , Mr Bracek is just an average player , who wouldn't and couldn't get into the Leigh team , he seems to have found his niche in the Fax team , but has reached his peak , personally I think Fax have better .

Different players fit different teams charlie you should know that. Look at Sam Barlow, couldnt get in the Fax first team ahead of players like Bracek who were constantly better than him.

Sam Barlow was the best prop we have had under Harrison's reign.The only reason he wasn't in the team was because Harrison couldn't work with him.Bracek is decent and didn't deserve to be dropped IMO but has nowhere near the ability of Barlow.

Really? I remember him having just 2 really good games for us and the season he ended up leaving he was shocking. Remember the game away to Fev or the game at Hunslet? He may have the ability but the fact he has had nearly as many clubs as Tiger Woods does suggest he does not know how to harness that ability, it also shows what a fine job Rowley has managed to do with him this year. Anyway I wouldnt have Barlow in my team over Ambler any day of the week and I would think most coaches and players would say the same.

It's all about opinions and i'm sure most would agree with you.IMO the most important part of a props game is the tackle bust and offload. The only exponent we have had recently is Sam.Props who plod 5 yards and go down like they've been shot and ten-a-penny,we've several on our books.

Now Now Quinny , you know Sarcasm is the Lowest form of wit , Its obvious that the current Leigh Squad is the best in the League , in my opinion Mr Bracek wouldn't get into this Squad , and I think Fax have players of better ability also , just my opinion , nowt to do with knowledge .
