McNally is the classiest player we have had since Steve Donlan wonderful hands !

Good Evening Reffy.



First of all, please afford me the opportunity to place here what I wrote about young Ryan on his previous outing for Leigh.









Your referral to an 'Intense Dislike' of the boy is therefore definitely a harsh response to my post and actually can be said is an exaggeration of my analysis in it self. Can the boy score some outstanding long range rugby tries? He certainly can. Is it a pleasing sight for Leigh to break the line and to see young Ryan right on his shoulder. Most certainly? Do I rate him as a scrum half, well I did set my stall out there by naming a list of numerous Championship players I thought may be a more effective aquisition as a half back so admittedly not.



I call it Reffy as I see it. You rate him and it is your prerogative to do so and for you to also state that fact on here.



However I would not say I have an 'Intense Dislike' for the boy as that is quite a misleading comment if I am entitled to say so.

Danny Yates is a very talented player. I once saw him play for England academy when Tom Gilmore was his half back partner and England's back 3 were Ben Currie, John Bateman and Stevie Ward.



Danny Yates was outstanding that day and ran the show. A scrum half I rate highly.



Oh blast. Can open. Worms everywhere. Inevitably.

He currently 'ply's his trade' at Batley for a reason....

And was doing so at Rochdale last season. Always been a mystery to me as it is certainly not due to a lack of talent.

Danny Yates is slight in stature but massive in talent

You could ask the same question about Brierley, ‘what’s he doing at Leigh ‘ ?

The Adamsons were plying their trade for Rochdale last season. Andy Thornley was at Swinton last season.



Players beneath us in the table are allowed to have good players, and players are allowed to work their way up.

Lots of talent in both C1 and 2.



We have assembled a really good little team and one that is more than capable of beating Toronto. The team just needs to believe when we play the guys from over the pond.



On the interim, its imperative we win every game leading up to the last game of the season. If we do this, I feel the other results will look after themselves !

Batley lost 48-12, maybe he could have performed better.

Don’t think the score line was Danny Yates fault, in fact, there was a marked less threat when he left the field with injury late in the game !

If we would have controlled the ball for the 1st 20 mins of the 2nd half we'd have got 60

Sorry, no offence to your Danny was intended....
