I think the problem with Riley could be his confidence, a few times I've seen this year he hasn't backed himself and gone down the outside to score, where as the Riley in 09/10 would have blazed down the left flank and scored. Williams did it last night, you need to take your chances in this game.'"
COuldn't agree more with that. His confidence seems to have been shot from the mid-point of last season. He was the form wing of SL for a large part of the season and in the Wigan game he was absolutely outstanding. From then on he's been poor and it's confidence that seems to be the difference. Saying that though, it's his job to front up and put in the performances to make him worth picking; with so much competition, any player who's mentally fragile will be found out and can expect the boot.
Quote My mate Army Man was saying that Hodgson can't possibly play every game and deserves a rest sometime so unless we bring Riley back to cover full back thats the only way he will get a look in, but Bridge could also play there too.'"
Talking to Steve Broomhead after the Crusaders game, he made mention of this lad we've signed from Bradford, saying he'll be getting some game time soon, so it looks like he's the future 2nd choice full back, not Riley or Bridge. A specialist full back is always better than a converted wing or centre.
