The player currently keeping Charnley out of the Leigh 1st team is Keanan Brand.
A young player that we recruited from Widnes, but was released to Leigh on a freebie by Wire, without being given a proper chance.
Leigh are off loading Charnley now and if we sign him, it illustrates the incompetence of the Wire succession plan for our team.
And he has scored hat trick tonight
We need Mystic Meg on the staff. Just at looking back at who we had around at the time ... you just can't keep 'em all. Lineham, Charnley, Ashton, Wrench & the excitable Mamo. Then they get lent out and rarely come back. Took his tries well though v Leeds.
That would make sense... if he had come through as our youth player. But we signed Brand from Widnes, gave him three games and sacked him off.
I'm seen as a happy clapper on here, but one thing I am ashamed of is how many players we let go and then see them go on to better things at other clubs. Remember our coaching staff see these guys in training day after day - the judgment of potential needs to be far better.
