I cant see either ryan or Ridy wanting to be rotated, unless Ryan goes to full back?

Not exactly what I meant by rotation, although I'm sure Ryan could fit in well there. I was thinking more along the lines of resting each of the half backs, now and again, and pairing them Ryan/Riddy, Ryan/Rangi, Rangi/Riddy. Then all three would be familiar with each other, and they all get a rest.

Ryan for Gregg, occasionally, would also give Gregg a well deserved rest.

Agreed. Good post.

Can't see any of them players wanting to be rotated, half backs need to form partnerships! All this ran out of steam is garbage, we simply was not good enough last year with the new recruits I feel we will be this season if Rangi and Bailey do come!

You are right about the IF concerning Rangi, but all this talk about Bailey I feel is in the realms of Fantasy I don't know where the rumour started, be it Ryan Bailey, Phil Bailey or even Bill Bailey ,I know the last one has trouble finding his way home.

No player wants to be rotated but it happens and keeps the players fresh, Ridyard was physically and mentally knackered last season, Reynolds was underused, Rowley would be a fool to let it happen again.

Shut up about Bailey will you, putting me off next season is that. Almost as daft as considering Harris to take over from Rowley which was one of Chasing the Eggs first 'discussion points' when he/she joined this forum 6 weeks ago

Exactly my point 'reffy'. When we ended up having to use Reynolds, in place of Ridyard, the lad didn't stand a chance. Whereas, if he had replaced Riddy a few times during the season, he may well have slotted in perfectly come the 'Qualifiers'. Also, I believe Ryan was turning out whilst injured, late in the season. Not the ideal situation having both half backs struggling, come the vital games, and their deputy 'undercooked'.

Of course, had Reynolds been rotated with Ridyard a few times, Martyn may not have been knackered for the end of the season!

Derek I don't think we have signed anybody called Bailey, that's what I'm saying,where has this rumour come from?
