I've watched a lot of him this season on Premier Sports, he can kick goals, and can pass a ball as well, and as he has been playing at 7 all season, his tackling hasn't been needed much.Would you have him back ?

We can't afford him....or anybody else for that matter. Nice one Derek.

I would Ian! He looked a very accomplished halfback, when Toronto played at Leigh. (as have a lot of halfbacks this season!) Let's face it, his 'limited' qualities listed earlier in this conversation, amount to more than those displayed by some who have graced our team in 2018!



I also strongly suspect that we only heard one side of the story when he left us!

Greetings Budge, my suggestion was aimed at next season ,if he was available, who knows what we will be able to afford then , or for that matter Ryan's wage demands,I'm ready to wait and see what occurs next year.

I think a few Leigh fans would have him back , it's all a matter of what occurs with Toronto,and their recruiting next season.

As far as Ryan's side of the story, I agree there.

No, he will never be forgiven for trying *along with his agent* to screw the Club over. Toronto won't keep Ryan, he is not SL quality.

That's certainly the view we were fed Ste. I do suspect there is another side to the story, as always.

He took a five year contract at Hudds didn't he? Followed by his mentor being offered the coaching role. Both failed.



There's no way I'm going down the lines of DB has gone and all will return..



Let's get real.

Well let's compare to our halfs this year...Ryan can pass a ball a lot better than ours,his kicking game is far better that our halfs,can finish a try from 50yds plus ours cant but can't tackle any where near as well as our halfs...now we're talking about a 7 here so what type of 7 do fans want

Ryan not a super league player he as proven that he is a good championship player I would have him back at Leigh. I would have riddy back at leigh to if fev are cutting wages in half and we offer same money as them I’m sure he would come back and cut out the travelling 3 times a week. I can’t honestly see drew and Ben stopping with us next season as they both have stated we should to start to try build a squad of decent part timers with ability to challenge for a top four spot similar to what Halifax have done and then build on that things are going to get worse before they get better we all know that

Fully agree Monty 100%

,I can't see Hutchy being with us next year , not sure about Ben, but Ryan and Riddy would be a good way to start building a team again,chuck in Higson and Pownall could be willing to return, we won't be a SL team so why mention SL class players?



As has been said , there are 2 sides to every story, maybe we have been told what was felt , we needed to be told.

Again Gunner, you are correct, scrum halves shouldn't have to tackle, Lee Briers and Long didn't, Ryan always goes to centre when the opposing side have the ball.Also the kids love him, he was always last off the field at the LSV posing for pics, and was a good ambassador for the Club.As was Riddy,he may not have been fully fit at the start of the season, but he certainly was when Fev arrived at the LSV this season.
