DP: Nick you were a two try match winning hero!
NS: It was good, playing against my hometown team. It wasn't just down to me, Jock (McConnell) gave me the ball. It was all the forwards that did the work then they spun it out to me and I scored.
DP: Is that a set move? You scored from a very similar position last week.
NS: Not really, it was down to Jock. He just sees it. His vision is good.
DP: I've got to ask, what's it like playing against your old team?
NS: Most of them weren't my old team, just a handful of them. I had a laugh with a couple of the lads I knew at the end there. I spent a year playing in the same team as Ben Davies and Josh Veivers but I was mainly in Sam Tomkins and Lee Mossop's team.
DP: How have things been going for you personally in the close season?
NS: Generally pretty good. Last season I missed a few sessions but this season I've kicked on and got fitter, bigger and stronger.
DP: There was a story on the messageboards that you were involved in a bit of a car shunt, is everything okay?
NS: Yeah, I just got a bit of whiplash at the time.
DP: I suppose you are looking forward to this weekend and Oldham?
NS: That goes without saying, hopefully we can come off the back of a good win confident, and get a win for the fans.
DP: Are you hoping that you've played your way into Ian's thoughts?
NS: Oh definitely, I'm hoping he sees that I can do well.
DP: Well you came up with two good finishes with only a bit of ball! I think that's the thing with being a Leigh winger, you do only see limited ball don't you?
NS: Last season I hardly touched the ball out wide but it's something we've been working on pre-season in training and hopefully it'll start paying off now. It was all down the middle last year. We'll carry on working on it in training. Some of the older players have helped. Robbie (Paul) dominates everything. He tells everyone where they should be. It's the forwards that go forward, it's my job to finish in the corner, or closer to the posts!
