| If we are off the boil and anywhere near underestimate you then you will win. Really looking forward to the game, especially excited that you lot are bringing big numbers, think it will be a charged atmosphere. An added spice is the likes of Ben Crooks and James Clare who I dare say will have something to prove .

If he isn't then I would go with Reynolds who has had a great pre-season.
=#BF0000Not sure on the logic of putting Paterson into the halves. Presumably we have had our half backs of all combinations practicing together all through pre-season be that Riddy/Reynolds/Drinkwater/Hampshire etc. Would seem odd to then get to the opening fixture and stick a 6 ft 5 back rower in at 6 when we have plenty of actual half backs to choose from.'"
Does "logic" not play into the hands of the opposition? Would the opposition base their game plan on Ridy @6? Leigh need to be clever this season.Rotation of players keeps them fresh,rotation of positions breaks game plans.

| No better time to play Cas really. I fancy them to finish top 4 and quite comfortably.
If Riddy plays, he will need protecting. The poorest attribute to Riddys game is his defence.
I can see nothing more than a comfortable Cas win by about 20.
The Leeds and Saints games ARE winnable though. Its unbelievable I could even state that bearing their Pedigree but I honestly think they are two pretty average sides this year.
Only time will tell !!

| Leigh need to play this game as much between the ear holes as on the ground, the last thing they need to do is to go out to try to prove a point, the occasion is massive as it will be on another 22 occasions before the split in July.
This is were Mr Jukes and his colleagues in the coaching team will give us fans an indication of their intention for the season in the manner the team approach the game, we have no need to show how tough we can be, or to be to frenetic and uncontrolled with the ball in hand, the team probably has as much collective experience as any other team in the division, if they and the coaches use that experience and the game is approached with a precise controlled game plan both defensively and offensively then we can come away from where I belive will be one of the hardest grounds any team will visit this season with some credit and aspiration for what lies ahead.

Hmm interesting theory, lets stick Riddy in the pack then and start Jame Acton at 6.
REALLY take them by surprise!

| I remember the thread on bulking Ridy up for LF .Never materialised, but seem to remember him at .Also a no show from a certain Mr Chase at Odsal paved the way for Mr Patersen.Do we know if Ridy is fit yet?

Riddy wouldn't talk to you, unless you mean his Dad Alf.

| To be honest it doesnt matter who plays at sox as it will be in the same structure. But we do need the best player to make that structure work which has to be riddy

Of course it matters who plays at six, it may be the same structure but it also depends who can orchestrate and deliver that structure, Reynolds is a good fall back, Patterson is best utilised for the team in another role, yes you are correct, if fit it has to be Riddy.

| I would play Mitch Brown at full back , and Rocky Hampshire at 6 if Riddy is not fit, when Hampshire moved to 6 last Sunday he looked very good the same as he did against us for Wigan the year before, I think he and Drinky could work well together.Charlie's Opinion.

Better players than Cory Patterson have tried and failed to deal with Rangi Chase when he is on form.

His pre-season tests show he is fitter at the start of 2017 than he was at the beginning if any other season when he was at Cas. He's been working with Cas' conditioning team every day throughout the winter. He's had no break between the end of last season and the start of this season so he is in top condition.
He would be a good tip for MoS.

The question mark is over his brain, more than his body.

Perhaps, but it could be suggested that one is reflective of the other.
