Wing wise we have the best we have had in years with the expception of Blanch who was class. Ford at Full Back has pace to burn and will cause teams trouble. Centre is a position in which we need to strengthen and we will do, TKL is still one of the best in this division.

alond with mr Jon Goddard of cause

Damn those big headed fax fans and their country miles.

Toa was past it at Leyth, you admitted as much yourself. Always going to get 100% from Deano, but he's hardly going to rip up the record books. Flynn I will give the benefit of the doubt, despite Chris Hill catching him on Good Friday, though I will concede that Gardner will be a revelation at this level.



Your strongest area is certainly in the halves, though one must question what will happen if Thackeray and/or Webster get injured.

Come off it! Gaskell is a decent kick returner but doesn't offer anything else. Flynn has a good turn of speed but is still learning the game and Cullen keeps droppng him at the turn of a hat if he can get hold of a loan signing for a couple of weeks. kohe-Love is good in the 5 or 6 games a season he plays but is as slow as a cart horse. Matt Gardner what can I say about him??? Well he has had three clubs in three years and none of them have extended the deal. A lot of Widnes fans refer to Ben Blacks "bombed try". What about Gardners "bombed try" for Salford in the Grand Final against Celtic!! FFS! You have released Dodd, but Dodd is Steve Hampson under the high bomb compared to Gardner. Wake up and smell the coffee Cullen is going for smash and grab rugby this season, I hope the off-licence outside the ground has put in bumper orders for Swan Vistas for next season, because the Chemic fans will need them to prop their eye-lids open!

Thomas Coyle?

Up until last season due mainly to injuries Gaskell has been the best winger in there division and virtually always beats the first man... I mean though Rob Worrincy is safe as houses of course!

There will be no predictable inside passes that allow the forwards to get smashed by the opposition?

You'd then be expecting Smith to do 80 minutes, something I'm not sure he's capable of doing these days.





Don't forget we're the ones that have signed Duffy

1) Gaskell scores 20plus tries a season..................er no.

2) Gaskell always defuses the bomb against an opposition winger who is above 5ft 2" tall..........er no.

3) Gaksell will always chase down and catch any line break......................er no.

4) Gaskell will always beat the first man on a kick return...........yeh baby Gaskell is truly the best winger in the division bar none.

Water carrier

Jeez mate your on the bounce tonight aint ya, we dont here a peep all year from the Leythers and bang we get you pair on a posting fest.





If i had the pick of any wingers in the division i would always pick Deano as one of them, his ability to beat a man is second to none. As for Toa Balboa well last year he was great when he played, he had a problem at Leigh with some floating bone behind his knee and still had it last year thus he missed a fair few as his knee flaired up. He had a minor clear out about a month back on this and is now raring to go, still one of the toughest defenders in the division and still has the classy feet near the line. Im glad we have him.



Our pack is easily our stongest point along with the half backs, we have another 3 to arrive yet though in them back positions and it will only boost an already solid squad.



Oh and BTW Duffy as good as he can be is a concusion monster, hopefully Wobbie at 34 can inspire you to greater heights.
