I would stick grady in the second row for this and have 2 strike players in the centres in Toa and Gardner, Nanyn and Blythe will have there hands full with them pair. Big powerful bench too for what will be a physical Leigh pack.


1. James Ford
2. Paddy Flynn
3. Toa Balboa
4. Matt Gardner
5. Shaun Ainscough
6. Anthony Thackeray
7. James Webster
8. Jordan James
9. Kirk Netherton
10. Jim Gannon
11. Shane Grady
12. Lee Doran
13. Dave Allen

14. Ben Kavanagh
15. Richard Varkulis
16. Ben Davies
17. Daniel Heckenberg

Oh dear !!

TF your not a coach!

Nothing against ginner people !

but leighs pack will trample him for Brekky, dinner and supper !

Make sure he marks Nanyn ! ensure Nanyn will knock on and miss a few tackles but the fat get will probably still score 20 on his own!



Grady will probably score 20 himself, but unfortunately not enough for the 3 points!

I doubt that mate, Grady is a very good defender and you wont see much get past him, i suppose he's a bit like James Taylor for Leigh. The bench has plenty of size about it and Kav can easily slot into the second row. As much as you lot diss Toa he will run rings around Nanyn given the space. Blythe also isnt great in defence from what i have seen and thats why Gardner would get the nod at centre from me, he's big and difficult to stop out wide.

Always rated Toa.

Just a pretend plumber ! He even got injured doing his apprenticeship!!

It will be a good game.

We are due to lose one, so would not surprise me one bit if it isnt against the mixed squad what is Widnes.

I hope for a good advert for the league. I am sure it will be.

PS ( Fat boy will still score a load of points though!!)

Send who you want , they'll be going home unhappy having tasted defeat

Again

Some nice sig material there Bugman.

Ehh. Tastes like Chicken.

Still have yours from last year!

That was soooooo last year snowy, get some new stuff lad.

I'd drop Kohe Love if there's some able bodies to come in.

Gaskell is back this week i think.

Theres another sig !!

Still in honesty don't think Leigh's side are that special they are just well drilled atm, and so are we!

I think our back line is quicker and classier as well so if we can get some big boys out we should have a good night, this will be a big game for players like Houghton as nothing flash just keep working them hard up the middle as they do and then I think we have more than enough out wide to get over the line!

I expect Bibey and Hill to beef your young pack, but the likes of Houghton and Davies especially will give as good as they get but we'll just be too strong up front. Ridyard v Thackery will be a very interesting battle though.

Bibey and Hill? are you forgetting Jordan James and Jim Gannon and Ben Kavanagh oh and Heckenberg? ill give you Hill but Bibey is poo and he's had more clubs than tiger woods.

Comparing Thacks to Ridyard is also laughable, Ridyard is ex Leigh Miners and still developing in the game, Thacks is the championships asssassin.

Your players are second hand returns.

We will see who's laughing tommorrow.

Indeed, but we'll be laughing hardest when we walk into Super League.

I knew the arrogance would come out once you'd been provoked

Even after you fail to break in to the top four.

Another NRC will do me fine, and if we keep injury free then we will peak when it matters.

Been to any finals with Leigh lately Matt? no thought not.............

We do need to give Leigh a good hiding and set them on a downward spiral there numbers are leaving their board and spreading lol!

Shame none of them fancy going the games mind you

Eight in the past decade isn't too shabby.

We will see, as I said it will be a tough battle in the forward but I expect us to win that battle.

I think you're showing your lack of knowledge there, I wasn't comparing the two, I was simply stating that it will be an interesting battle as Martyn tonight gets to prove himself against one of the best 6's in the league. If there is one area Ridyard is better it's the kicking game.

Sig material anybody

Send who you want , they'll be going home unhappy having tasted defeat

Again
