Gutted for him. Something clearly changed from before to after that rib injury.
He was in quality form until that point and although he was still sublime with ball in hand at the back end of the season he was suddenly very shaky under the high ball and clearly nursing an injury.
Did a brave job in tough circumstances, playing out of position for most of the season. His performance when we hammered Saints at the LSV was as good as anyone has put in for Leigh in my time. He was untouchable.
Wish him all the best. Finding his replacement will be a huge decision for the club.

It's a shame but his body was telling him it was time. Sadly his body was telling US it was time too. DB made some nice noises in a recent interview but seemed resigned to it. Wish Matt well back in civvy street.
....and here comes what seemingly is becoming Bongser's annual question: Who's going to kick the goals?
Macintosh probably will kick goals if he hold that wing position. He started last year when Moylan was out, but then Hardacker took over part way through a game. Going to be hard to find a good half back at this time. Boyd who was mentioned is being chased by Manley.
