So we potentially bring Hampshire in for French if he’s band

Re: Leigh (A) : Sat Sep 23, 2023 7:18 pm  

Just watched the recording of the game and maybe I was a bit harsh saying the 2nd 40 wouldn't warrant any progression in the play offs, we managed the game brilliantly at times and just backed our defence.

Brad O'Neill must be a shoe in for YPOTY. His last stint at 13 was immense, I think Peet will utilise him more over the few weeks in that position and keep Smithies on the field at prop.

I was fuming when he used him at 13, his distribution was/is far better than Powells, should have swapped them around

I agree on the distribution part, but O’Neill has looked good at LF on the 2 occasions he’s been played there this year. Looked very good at Leeds for the last 15/20 mins when he slotted in there. Has a decent little step on him too to get in between defenders.

Feels like we’ve half an eye on next year with O’Neill spelling at 13. You don’t buy a guy like Leeming to play only 20 minutes a game but you need O’Neill on the field for the majority of the game.

Fair enough. The bigger concern is Bevan French may well get banned for deliberate contact with the referee.

If there is any consistency then he won’t receive a ban. LMS did exactly the same at wasn’t suspended.

Leeming used to fill in at half back at Leeds I'm pretty sure. Maybe they're looking at players ability to play various positions and roles thus moving them around to see who's best and where.
