To be fair, we play with 3 props and not a 13, so the number don't matter. I'd put Wilkes in for Barlow next week, to give him a rest and to let him reflect on the performance.

I respect your opinions as this is a forum, mine is you are talking total sheeite and have been watching Wigan/SL far too long. Leigh are not sterile, we do not need cloning with the boring carp served up by SL thats driving fans away and being reffed poorly.

Barlow has the Pinner/Pyke/Wilkinson in his play and long may it continue

One of my favourite players always gives his all love his enthusiasm for the game , creates more tries with his creative play I can forgive the odd mistake as other make them too ,like riddys knock on etc etc
A team proformNce yesterday well done all of them

quote="JENKY"A class player who no doubt will be one of the first names on the team sheet.
A skilful tough forward who is as fit enough, comfortable and gifted at off loading in the tackle passing when running and getting up supporting play as he is at tackling and defending is as rare as hens teeth in Great Britain.
Rowley knows we have one of the best and thankfully the chances of him being dropped are nil.'"

[iAll that Andy, plus the lad is a character, and there aren't all that many of them in the Sport! Sure, he can occasionally be frustrating, but he's only young - imagine how good he can be when he 'matures' as a forward.

As for dropping him because a risky offload cost us a try, what about Tom Armstrong's howler of a pass, in his own '20', that lead to Salford's try in the second half? So, following on from the poster's suggestion, we obviously have to drop Armstrong too!

I reckon Sam put in much more game time than usual, along with the three '80 minute men', (Beswick, Goulden and Dixon) and Spencer, Emmitt and Hopkins. Aspinwall and Hock, both heavily strapped, only did comparatively short stints and Worthington didn't get on at all. So, even more plaudits to our forwards yesterday.[/i

Although I rate Sam Barlow ,to put him in the same bracket as Sir Harry Pinner



a bit exaggerated, Sir Harry was a genius,at the back end of his career when he came to Leigh , but still very good.Stay off the draught Vinegar Maurice.

Why do folks feed the Pie troll... Ignore the muppet.

Be fair Charlie can't help it



Must be his medication.

I was on about Muckachucka the Pie troll.

sure Sam will be pleased you rate him after you previously slagging off some of his team mates.our strength is in our squad and the mix of talents assembled what every championship team needs long may our style of play continue and prevail in the end

just listening Brian Moore on the wireless waiting for the rl slot this involved Eddie Hemmings being most complimentary about our performance and the lsv and the studio guest Martin Offiah who apparently is the next addition to the rl hall of fame bemoaning that he was no longer Ryans agent

Barlow is class and will be another one that SL clubs will be watching closely .He's contracted to Leigh for along time yet so he wont be going anywhere anytime soon. .Sam would be on the teamsheet every week for me he is getting better as he matures and a wayward pass once in a while can be forgiven .There isn't another prop in this league that has footwork and ball skills like Barlow so why would we not play him ???

I really think Barlow is one of the most skilful players we have, if all goes to plan in The Qualifer Super 8s I really wouldn't be supprised at an England Knights call up for Sam Barlow & Liam Kay this season.

Totally agree with above post well said !!!!

Pie?

Ow u work that one out?

Hopefully his decision making will improve, and so will his overall game. He'll get found out against the bigger teams if he's throwing offloads in his own 10 meter line.

To be fair to him, he's a good defender which helps his cause.

I love it when people spit their dummy out because someone opposes their opinion. It's kind of what this place is for



Feel free to carry on expressing your opinion, or not as the case may be.

Fantastic Player Sam and a Fantastic Bloke !!!

Woopse forgot Sam Barlow is already in the Scotland squad.

Considering they've won The European Championship last year & qualified for the Next 4 Nations doubt he'd want to pass up the chance to play against Australia, New Zealand & England.

As I have just posted in another thread I thought your forwards were distinctly average on Saturday but I thought Sam had a pretty good game if I am honest.

Average the defense from the forwards was has good has any SL teams forwards ive seen for the past few years Beswick Dixon Goulding Emmit Soencer Hopkins Barlow all put in massive efforts

GFB, Should have gone to specsavers.

Yeah, Barlow wasn't at his best going forward yesterday, but that happens.

But when he dropped on a loose Salford ball just in front of our sticks late in second half, when we were really hanging on, THAT is as good as a great offload and more.

Then he pretended he was hurt to kill some time, but we'll not talk about that bit...
