Have to agree.....(hope this rumour is true). Eric Anselme didn't turn out too bad as a short term loan signing

| I would be very surprised if this rumour was correct as it must be very difficult to integrate a new HB into any side without a pre season under their belt?
Who's position would Bosc take sutcliffe or Lilly's?

I don't think Lilley will be affected at all. This year is a bonus for him. Sutcliffe knows he's been groomed as Sinfield's replacement. They need to take the heat off him, or it could finish him. Get him in the back row, and let him flourish. Expecting him and Lilley to direct this team around the park so early in their careers is reckless from McDermott.

| We need some experience at 6/7. Sutty was nowhere to be seen on Friday and Lilley is playing more than we expected at his young age. Add to this burrow is offering very little as captain or his general play. So bosc for a month would make sense if true of course. Then who knows brierley's four weeks fiasco may come into play!

From the OP
Bit of a Walter Mitty character perhaps?
Judge for yourself... [url=http://retro.rlfans.com/viewtopic.php?p=18005801#p18005801[uHERE[/u[/url... [url=http://retro.rlfans.com/viewtopic.php?p=18283648#p18283648[uHERE[/u[/url... and... [url=http://retro.rlfans.com/viewtopic.php?p=18242672#p18242672[uHERE[/u[/url.
I guess even Walter Mitty types might get it spot on occasionally though.

I am no fan of Mcermot, but what we are doing this year is no call of his, and out of his hands. He is however biting off his nose to spite his face sort of speak. But the issue on resource his not at his door.

Started by Leigh's Business Development Manager, his job title described as.....
"Barker, 53, will have a wide-ranging role at the Club reporting to Operations Director Allan Rowley including increasing the Club's profile in the sporting and business communities, managing its online and offline presence, maximising the match-day experience and bringing new sponsors and supporters into the Leyther family"
No wonder Leigh are being slated for how the club is being run when the guy employed to do the stuff above is on here shortly before they kicked off today spreading rumours.

Just looked at his previous posts. Fair to say he's off his t!ts. Might aswell close this thread.

It will no doubt give him some cool stories to share with his new teammates at Belle Vue/Post Office Road next season.

| Everyone who is worried about our current halves, watch West Tigers playing now, last season their young halves looked clueless along with their team.
But now with a year of playing together and a bit more freedom, they are tearing teams to ribbons, it may just take a while for Lilly and Sutcliffe to get to their potential, we are unlucky in the respect that the plan of establishing sutcliffe this year and Lilly a couple of seasons down the line has been disrupted by the injury to Mcguire.
I dont think we should over react and move Sutcliffe out to the centres or something, if we do bring in Bosc I hope it is only until Mcguire is back
We should also look at Williams who started the season poorly last year but kicked on when the team around him started playing better

At the time Williams was playing in the halves alongside Matty Smith, who was the England No7. Bit of a difference there.

Brooks and Moses certainly look exciting and dangerous with ball in hand and on the toe and link well together but defensively there is still work to do especially with Moses very much like a young McGuire in that department. Yet again though they have what Lilley especially lacks - pace and that is either there or it isn't. If it isn't there it's difficult to add.

It does seem to be a glaring ommission....but as many have said previously, pace is not always a necessity for a good half back to be. There does, however, need to be plenty of other compensating boxes of tricks up their sleeves. The jury is still out. True talent does tend to manifest itself pretty quickly.

If Mcguire plays as well as he did last year then he is better than smith

You NEED a business development manager to thrown bucket loads of ££ at ex-NRL/SL players to play in the second division and yet still lose to Batley?
Who knew.

| This story is not true.Bosc is playing as second hooker while Aiton is injured and will fill in as a utility back .Longer term he is looking to be a coach.He is a useful player in these roles,but no more than that
