I need to ask though, I'm not trying to blow smoke up Andy Raleigh's jaxxi, but his tackling is consistent and generally above average, his runs are consistent and he generally takes 2-4 men with him in tackles and makes the metres.
Player of the year 2008 as well.

What does he have to do to get any appraisal for what he has achieved from the fans point of view?

Re: Andy Raleigh : Wed Apr 07, 2010 10:05 pm  

I think he has been up in the top 5 players this season. Really impressive!

Do you mean 'praise' rather than 'appraisal'?
stella gave a pretty good appraisal of Andy's qualities earlier in the thread. As for praise: Andy's a quality player. Like you said, a 100%er. But he's not the best 2nd rower at the Giants, never mind in the country.
