Andy Raleigh : Sun Mar 28, 2010 8:20 pm  

Evening all!

Not sure what you guys think of this bloke but from a Saints POV he impressed me alot today!

Made major yards on every single drive, really stood out for me

Also impressed by Robinson, Grix, Lunt and Faiumus sidestep which consistantly left our defence flat-footed

Good luck for the last of the season

agree raleigh had a good game yesterday.. just started this season as a prop and i think he still has some way to go yet.. but the big plus point is that he can do 80minutes

faiumu's sidesteps are his trademark

I also thought Raleigh was your stand out player yesterday-made good ground with every carry.

Andy Raleigh is consistently good. He deserves a crack at national level as much as anyone else.
I'm not biased, but when we signed him from KR, I saw so much potential in that first game that we had done well. I'm sure that playing for your home town team gives you drive, but Andy Raleigh gives it 100% effort, 100% of the game!

I hear that the bulls have also seen that potential reidy@work

I agree. He'll hopefully settle for a lower salary and stay with the claret & gold

Good solid player who always gives 100%. But international standard not a chance.
He is lacking at that level in his go forward, his pace and his ball handling skills.

Agree with stella. He is solid without being spectacular. Gets through loads of work, gives away the odd silly penalty now and then and can sometimes be a bit too upright going into the tackle. Will work and work and work all day though and having a decent season so far.

To be fair i thought Raleigh was up there with Griffin and Brown as our only decent players yesterday.
