And, once again, if you're expecting Armistead to break through the line then you've got the wrong bloke. We've got a very skillful and able back rower in Armistead who, when utilised properly, is a very dangerous player, as he showed prior to his injury. Trouble is, there is no support for the fella to offload just before impact and, as previously mentioned, he's not the type of player to bust through tackles.

I've seen most of Armistead's performances this season and at times he looks too good for Leigh. Most of the players can't read what he's going to do and don't support him. He's a quality player and often made to look a bit of a mug by the duffers playing alongside him.

Most leigh fans are clueless no need to sxplain proper rugby fans will know why armistead is our best forward he is awesome for the reasons i have already put i cant belive some people CLUELESS the game has moved on from 1960 people

Armistead not our best forward.... FACT ( chris hill). Armistead our second best forward.. MAYBE. However, very unfit at the moment and seems too miss a few tackles. JUst shows how good our forwards are tbh.

not a fact at all tell me were chris hill looks to get the offload NEVER tell me when c.hill looks to hit the dewck quick NEVER always trys to wrestle for the unnesacery 2 more yard Armistead is better even though C.Hill is a very good player

Exactly why the pair of them are in the same team. Dave is an offload merchant and Chris is a yards merchant. We need the pair and when the both of them have blinders we will crucifi somebody.

Chris Hill is probably our second highest offloaded, a number of times this season has he got it away to Jock who has looked to expose the gaps. He's probably made by far the most yards in the team as well.

But you aren't comparing like for like, as whenever Armistead is in the front row he's playing out of position. It's like saying Watson is a better back than Alstead.

Exactly, two different type of players. Dave is effective when we have people aware and pushing up with him giving him an option to offload. Very good ball handler (

) and he's got a good short range kicking game. Certainly an asset to the side when fully fit. I don't think we've seen him fully fit or at his best yet.

Its official some Leigh fans are total pr***s!!!!!
Armistead is class an organiser in the pack great hands and a great kick on the last tackle...when he is allowed to!!!
You all say watson isnt followed and has no runners well ditto with armo!!! Any of you watch NRL their forwards are taught to turn and offload in the tackle!!! he is and will be a great Leigh player.....god am mad at some of the tosh sprouted on here!!!!

HOBSON!!!!!!! i rest my case!!!!!!!

I agree on this one

Armistead has been a solid performer all season and he's doing it on leg.

Thank you i agree with a lot of your posts to mate i think at the end of the day we all love the club at heart and just want them to win ...a little to much at times!!
