just been to miners st judes game,a very good 32 all draw,the outstanding player was miners scrumhalf scott obrien.imo he is better than anything we have in that position,he tackles,kicks ,createsand scores tries,his only fault is he is a local lad playing for a local team,and before anyone says I have a miners bias I am a founder member of leigh east.I think we should have a serious look at this kid because I think he is a very big talent.

he IS playing at a far lower level though so its hard to compare him with the Leigh halfs isnt it?

I take your point but the difference in the standard they play dosnt alter the fact that Scott is quicker,kicks a ball brilliantly,tackles soundly and has an eye for the gap,I was told today that next year he is to marry and pack the game in altogether,what a waste.

scott,would love the chance to sign for leigh,as for packing in when he gets married is a joke so people who dont know the lad dont throw all the poop around,he has rugby league running through his blood and always will,there are reasons why scott left blackpool and he will tell you if you ask him.

Unless its an 'in-joke' or just a simple error I assume you mean the Rebel.

If so which bit do you agree with?

This: The Rebel wrote: I take your point but the difference in the standard they play dosnt alter the fact that Scott is quicker,kicks a ball brilliantly,tackles soundly and has an eye for the gap,

Or this: I was told today that next year he is to marry and pack the game in altogether,what a waste.
