You know what, from what I am hearing from Bradford. I would not totally rule out young Gregg being a Leigh player again in 2019 just yet.

I think it is now highly possible Gregg will be in a Leigh shirt next season. Not quite a done deal yet mind.

I, for one, would welcome him back. There are very few others who can time an incursion into the line, like he does - and he always did work well with Ridyard. He is also a good organiser of those in front of him. I was a regular critic of his defence, when he was with us before, but none of our full backs since him, have been any better in that department.

With his wife's unfortunate illness, Leigh would be the best bet for him, too.

Our (Bulls) 2019 shirt numbers have just been released this week and Gregg has number 1. If we were selling, that is a strange thing to do.

That's not to say it ISN'T happening; it may be that the Bulls are playing unaware, as Gregg is one of our stars (at the moment), and a selling point for ST and the new Flex-ticket thing.

IMO it seems unlikely though.

Does beg the question, I suppose. But the Leyth vibe is on the way up again, so anything is possible.

Is he another centre? (we've got three already) I think Tyson is AJ's half brother (?) and he certainly plays like him! We don't seem to have a specialist full back yet, and we probably need two half backs. (only Riddy announced so far)

Keep seeing you guys mention AJ who is he? Im just a nosey chops

Its a shame about Tyson. Been told ability wise he should be easily in super league, but heard he is a total barmpot haha dont know if true or not

Re: New signing predictions : Mon Dec 17, 2018 7:38 pm  

Tyson is AJ's younger half brother, both came through LMR.

Adam Higson - currently with Toronto - formerly with Leigh (twice) and Swinton. According to Wikipedia, he is 31 years old, 6 foot 4 inches, and 15 stones 6 lbs. (hey, there's that big fast winger we have been craving for years!) He has been prone to do some crazy things, but can play when he sets his mind to it. In my opinion, better than George Tyson.

Don't know what the 'J' stands for!
