It has been reported in various camps and RL papers than your Hot Property , Ryan Brierley has been rested ,and dropped, King Degsy says he was rested yesterday but apparently a member of Ryan's own family has stated Ryan was dropped



.
Obviously one comment is true and the other false, but which is which?I'm sure you Leighers have your own opinions,a d it is reported in today's League Express that Huddersfield have made 2 bids for MR Brierley,I'm sure the Tripster will clarify which story is right, but what are the fans thoughts on the subject?

Trot on Troll.

TV it is a serious question, please be civil, manners are free.

Have our mods gone to sleep/left the country ? can we please have this (very small, Keef was right) tool excluded from this forum

Is it not a genuine question to ask for your comments on an issue being speculated upon throughout RL and reported in RL's own press?

Thank you RFF.

Rested/Dropped = Not playing. Reason: Only the coaching staff know. We respect their decision and don't need to speculate.End of.

It doesn't matter whether he was rested or dropped, he didn't play others did and won. The coach picks the team rather than have it picked by a poll of fans.

Pointless thread just to get a response.

We've read the same papers and any other press coverage as you. Why would we know anymore. Jog on Jagger and your pointless existence on this MB.

It's not pointless to me and a good many other interested souls in RL.
Ryan has been in the news a lot - clause or no clause etc and obviously had a close relationship with your coach who appears to have left abruptly amidst some searching reasons.
He's now not included in you team this weekend. An obvious shoe in last season and a firm fav of many fans at leigh.
The chatter on the terraces is rife. The interest in him is widely reported.
It's of massive interests to most fans of the game.
Do you not think it's reasonable to ask for your comments on your form - he is a Leigh player, he wasn't included in the Leigh team.
Where better to ask that question?

Happenings at Fev tend to break a lot earlier than they are reported. it's the same at most clubs.
It's safe to say that some Leigh fans may know more than others. Some of my PM's suggest that may be the case.

There were several other Leigh players not selected either, would anyone like to know our views on those?

For people who are so interested I’d have thought they would have noticed that there is already a 7 page thread on this subject, nothing more than a very poor attempt to wind up.

Don't know about anyone else. I'm only interested in Brearley - for now.

Rested/dropped are pretty much the same thing worded differently so early into a season. Just means he wasn't picked for this weeks match. We have 3 halfbacks and 2 spots. The two we picked in week 1 went poorly so one of them missed out in week 2.

We have 3 good half backs and none of them should be undroppable. Certainly not to appease the media obsession with Brierley. We have cover in every position and if anyone in the side plays poorly they are in danger of being dropped/rested/rotated the following week. Ryan is no exception.

Why Jagger thinks that this needed a 2nd thread on top of the existing 7 page thread is beyond me. Clearly responding on every single thread on the forum isn't enough now and he feels the need to start his own in order to be the centre of attention

Well said.

Rotation/resting appears to be the policy for Leigh this year, it is something that a lot of players are going to have to get used to. Hopefully the competition for places that we currently have will push Ryan further and make a better player of him.

The question I have is why is someone closely connected to Leigh Centurions going on other boards linking Brierley with clubs

Please don't feed these trolls.

Yeah that would annoy me most if I was a Leigh fan. That Neil Barker bloke you hired is spending his time fanning the flames on other boards about Brierley.

Not when 95% of his posts are absolute drivel. What do you expect from folk.

If it came directly from you them that would be a complete different story

Says it all as far as i'm concerned

Flip in ek dick Jagger you start writing in English and you get slated better writing in your useless slang at least nobody knows what your on about

Tony, don't you start with all this Lanky and Yorkie dialect,for me rested or Dropped ,I think Ryan has to be in the starting 13, obviously it's only my opinion,and we all have them,if Ryan was dropped on behavior then I accept that, but I'm not in favour of resting him, and surely if Ryan had to be rested it would have been better him to play against Oldham and rest against London, giving him more time to recover and rest.Charlie knows.

Maybe he didn't fit in with what the coach wanted to try this week. I really don't know what everyone is worrying about. At the end of the day if he leaves, he leaves. Players come and go. Yes it would be good to keep him and rumours of him leaving started long before our new signings arrived. If his agent and indeed Ryan keep responding to press questions then the rumors will continue. The press are being continually provided with information/rumour, some of which is confidential, for a reason. I think its time for some decisive action to put a stop to all this.

Can't win at the minute though can we. I guarantee if we had have dropped/rested Rangi instead of Ryan this week there would have been a dozen rumours started about how it was because Rowley/Jukesy didn't want to sign him in the 1st place, or he had gotten into trouble/fallen out with a team mate or Derek insisted Ryan HAD to play to stop him leaving for a SL club etc etc.

Everything we do at the minute is subjected to intense scrutiny and then wild speculation.
