I feel a little for Ben Reynolds.
He's constantly the "backup" halfback at Leigh, and every time it looks like he might get a chance, they bring someone else in and he goes back to being backup. To make matters worse for him, they brought him back from Dewsbury where he would have had a regular spot all season, when Brierley left and Rangi went on "a break", but now he's stuffed back in the reserves again once Drinkwater gets here.
If I were Reynolds, I'd be asking for a move by now, as they don't seem to want him.
Rest assured that Ben Reynolds is very highly rated by Leigh. So much so that he recently signed a 3 year deal to stay at the club.
Up until this weekend, He has been the League Express MOM for the past 3 consecutive Leigh games so that alone should confirm to Leigh how valuable a prospect he is in the game.
Even if Leigh start with Travis Burns and Josh Drinkwater on Sunday, I expect young Ben to be in the 17. Not only is he one of the game's brightest up and coming 7's he can competently cover a variety of alternative positions.
I rate him very highly.
