Must admit, you could definitely have done with Ridyard tonight.
Why change a team that put 50 past Wigan?

Sorry FFOF you would have to ask that question of the coaching experts at the club, as I said, I know nothing...

Still, at least one Leigh player will be able to say he helped a team avoid the middle eights eh?

Really missed Ridy, Drinkwater combination this year. Glad he has been given his chance but could be egg on a lot of faces if we end up in championship and he gets an SL contract for next year. Players who have good kicking games and can lead teams are in short supply and we give one away.

Well. All this shows I know nowt about rugby, because as far as I'm concerned Ridyard is a better standoff than Hampshire. Conversely I think Hampshire could be our best winger...

Also, I thought Ben Reynolds did enough against Wigan to keep his place in the side.

Clearly, I am an idiot.

Totally agree.

If it ain't broke, don't fix it, and it certainly wasn't broke at the end of last season. What changed? Nothing beats a traditional Stand Off and dynamic Scrum Half guiding the team around the park. Unfortunately, it seems Jukes prefers monotonous one man rugby = underachievement this year. Lots of poor decisions are evident when coaches are under stress though, so I guess it's no surprise. Ridyard deserves a good run in SL next season for whatever team and even Schofield tipped him for a big 2017, but he probably didn't expect it to be at Huddersfield when he predicted that.

Its time somebody at the club,be it DB or whoever,gives the fans an explanation as to why Riddy is being loaned out ,when it there for all to see we haven't got an half decent half back in the team.I include Drinkwater in this statement as not once has he even looked top class

Wondered why Brough was goal kicking 19-19 latest score

Presume we've stipulated that Ridyard wouldn't be allowed to play against us in a few weeks time?
