| Range Chase is one of the most gifted players to play in Super League. Unfortunately for him, it's a team game, and each team he has played in has done better without him. Yeah, he'll pull plenty of tricks against lower league players but Leigh's best chance is to be a solid unit of hardworking players, not a bunch of people trying to work out what Rangi's next magic trick will be.

| Quote Budgiezilla="Budgiezilla"Depends what The Avenger means by Super League standard I guess. I agree that out of our backs only Rangi Chase & Willie Tonga have played regular 'top flight' RL, doesn't mean that the others couldn't play in SL though.....as for our forwards, if Wakefield had signed a 'few' of these, doubt you'd be complaining that much.....
Some of this 'one liners' about Leigh players are quite funny, judging them by games he's seen on the TV I guess....but not all players who have played in Super League are of that standard, were they ?
Last seasons Leigh squad won at Wakefield, and lost at home to Wildcats by just 1 point (not a bad effort for a team full of championship standard players) FWIW I don't think you'll finish bottom of the league, you will have a fantastic coach in charge right from the start of the season which will be a massive boost, guess you'll be hoping for top 10 finish at least. Personally I think Salford & Widnes will find it tough, but guess we'll have to wait & see.
Merry Xmas to Wildthing and other 'Trinity' supporters, (maybe) we'lll meet again in 2016.'"
Read Terry Kelly's post then you'll understand my reply better

| But you've just done the same as he has Avenger.
He looks an idiot for coming on here but you have just trashed his team too so are not much better.
Leigh will be playing us this year I have no doubt.

| I have read it, but 'your squad is very poor compared to ours' comment, it is definitely not....wish we had Ben Jones Bishop on the right wing (for starters). Ignore Terry, he only posts to 'wind up' folk.....but your summary of our players is ridicilous....i.e. Liam Kay (in incredible form) why did you let him go ????

| I would suggest that, on their day, that Leigh side could compete with most SL clubs - as they showed in the CC last year, but my problem, especially with the big named players, is that they are there at least partly because they didn't perform consistently enough!
Leigh were a very tight night group last year - it will be interesting to see if they can maintain that group dynamic next season with those 'egos' amongst them!

| Leigh's problem in the middle eights was that they had no solid playing structures. They chanced their bully tactics all season then threw the ball about while the opposition were wound up. This worked in one off cup games against SL opposition but when they came up against SL opposition in a run of games, they were found out. It'll be interesting to see how they go this season and see if they've learnt anything from their disastrous first appearance in the middle eights.

LOL, you'll wish you never asked that question.
A constant source of joy on our forum.
He'd start in many SL teams imho.

Except I didn't go to the Leagh board trolling and being the one who kicked it off!

Maybe my point was too well hidden,
My post was meant to be ridiculous and over the top in the same way that Terry Kelly's was, I just responded in kind!

I would simply put it down to the fact they have a crap coach.
