I may know where theres a answer to your problems

I think he'd go to Salford before you guys, but you never know....

Reckon it will beSalford if he does go.

Would be a massive shock if he did join Bulls but then again can you imagine the partnership between him and Gaskell???

Could possibly be the strongest half back combination in the country (super league included)!!!

I think in 3 to 5 years it could be..... not now

In the Championship though, it would be the best easily!!!

I wish we had James Lowes as a coach, I like the forward, no nonsense approach he brings.... similar to Karl Harrison who I like as a coach also.......

Pity Harrison is a strewd Yorkshireman, or else I think we could of had him at Leigh!

If he did go to Salford then that would be 4 HBs they have. Although I think we've burnt our bridges with the doc and he seems quite pally with the Wakefield chairman so can see one of their HBs going to Wakey later in year if Brierley did sign with Salford.

I don't reckon we've a chance of signing Brierley and we don't really seem to be going for marquee players at the moment.

Doesn't anyone else think it's a bit weird that a player has a contract that means he can just leave if the coach leaves?

Comedy gold.

Ive thought for a while that your posts were a bit idiotic but this one beats them all

I can't see for the life in me why Brierley would leave Leigh to sign for another club in our division.

That said, he's a fine player, and I'd have him like a shot. It's hard to imagine where he's going to finish up - does anyone know what Rowley's plans are?

Funnily enough, we once had a player who left, so he said, because the coach was given the heave-ho and that was 'Badback' who left for Saints when his "Dad", AKA Foxy, was sacked. It definitely wasn't in his contract though....

Similar thing happened when Foxy was given the heave ho in 1985 and the Jeffersaurus followed him to Headingley.

We don't know for sure if this clause even exists and Brierley's new destination (if there is one) may yet depend who Leigh bring in as the new coach.

One thing's for sure they didn't need all this upheaval and uncertainty on the eve of the season. I wish we were playing them next week.

He wouldn't. As someone said on Twitter last night, the only way we'd end up with him is if he signed for an SL team that couldn't fit him under the cap this year, so loaned him out. Still highly unlikely though.

He'll either stay put, go to Leeds, or sign for another SL team for a year until someone better can get him under the cap. My money's on Wakey.

Love it if it were true but highly unlikely, quite a few things would have to get sorted for that to happen, assuming none of the top rated clubs were interested.

I think it's less about interest at this stage than it is about cap space. Wakey would have space and he would likely go there for a year until a higher club can fit him in next season. Wakey also made plenty of noise about wanting to sign another half when Joe Keyes fell through. If Leeds hadn't signed Ferres, I expect he would be there this morning.

Rumour has it there's a "pre-contract" signed for him to go to Leeds in 2017 if he wants to take it up.

Can't disagree with any of this, the problem we have is that of money or more importantly the lack of it, we had a half back lined up but it was reliant on us moving a player on which has proved difficult, and there in lies the problem, jf what you are suggesting is true then the club buying Brierley would have have to pay most of his wages as I'm sure you'll agree he wont come cheap.
