He coaches now and picks teams on whats needed and whos on form not who is going to take the limelight off him!!! He still worries me as a coach because of his egotistical attitude!!
Jamie is a good impact player and at Batley in the first half more than prived his worth....he offers a lot more than Liability hobson who we cant seem to get 2 good stints a game out of.....

Great idea! Lets stick Durbin at prop.

Not living in Leigh now I don,t hear much rugby gossip about our team. What I can,t understand however is why any coach would not pick his best line up.

I suppose its just the same as in life............if you don,t get on with someone you don,t keep knocking around with them.

I,m sure thats the case both with coaches, and the players on their staff, and vica versa.

So just to make myself clear I don,t believe it Thudder.

Surely a coach picks the players he feels will do a job?

Thats a bit of a contradiction Keith mate. But I know where you are coming from.
