Obviously playing for Leigh is not attractive, while playing for Toronto is.

| At 35, he is only interested in the payday... Lets see how many will be retained if they get to SL at the end of the season

| Absolutely embarrassing. Soulless club, thug of a coach, a team full of players who epitomise the term "mercenary".

You're quite right Roy, a nice easy pay packet, and If they do get to SL, it won't be on merit. And before anyone else pipes up, neither will Leigh if they don't buck their ideas up.

| TBF Reni has been out of the game for 18 months & as such can hardly be accused of pulling a fast one *doing a Rangi* on Leigh.
Reni played well for Leigh & contributed towards our promotion success, however he is now 35, will be RL rusty & Bodene Thompson is surely a better signing for Leigh.
What this suggests to me is that Paul Rowley lacks the vision to look beyond Leigh & ex Leigh players, I really don't understand why his paymasters are not wise to this.
TW must have some SC space available following the sacking of 3 well paid forwards, it will be interesting to see who they sign next.

And who beat Leigh....
Unlike the whole of the 'new' Leigh team who have come to play for Jukes and the love of Leigh. Cause you can see how much playing for Leigh means to them. And it's not because of the money. Oh no. Definitely not mercenaries.

Zak Hardaker is already on the pay roll however I am not sure he will count until the end of his ban if he cannot play?

Interesting! How much did they pay Cas for his registration?

| I believe he went into boxing, so presuming he’s stayed in shape he could still do a job at Championship level at 35. How old was Jamie Peacock when he played for Hull Kr?

Yes 12. Plus Whiting, Laithwaite and Rawsthorne, who have all had loan spells at Leigh. Then there are three members of the coaching team, plus the physio!
We must have had a good team, back in the day!
Reni was a huge influence, in our 'promotion' season, and I don't think we replaced him properly. However, he's had a long spell out of the game, and must surely find it hard to come back again? Good luck to him though - we benefitted from his spell at Leigh.
