Bradford played most of the season with no half backs and still made the MPG. In fact, our halfs against your lot were a loose forward and a centre. But we certainly didn't do ourselves any favours in the way we played but the blame for that is with Lowes and his coaching methods |

VERY interesting. The RFL should be all over that, getting him in the torture chamber until he chirps. Financial irregularities could be one cause, the cap or Melbourne-esque cap rorting? Or possibly treatment of players? Pain killing injections, other injections that may not be acceptable but have long been rumoured? (Legal disclaimer here that I'm not suggesting Leigh are committing any of the above crimes).
Whatever it is, the RFL should be all over it. You suspect they won't however, they'll have the brush out and it'll be under the rug by now.

if the RFL aren't all over it then you would expect all the other clubs in the league to be so |

Hopefully he's informed the RFL of his concerns, they must be pretty serious for him to resign.

So you are suggesting Rowley resigned due to his relationship with Beaumont? |

Leigh got an opening day hammering from a side that isn't spending £3m a season on players, after previously boasting that they would go the entire season unbeaten. You couldn't make it up.

Did you get rid of all the voices in your head? Do you now miss them and the things that they said?: |

To be fair, Batley can be a decent side on their day. John Kear has shown time and again that he's able to get underdogs to punch above their weight |

Leigh's tactics were naive on the mountainside cabbage patch at Mount Pleasant. Tried to play too much passing rugby going downhill, angles are too weird for players not used to it.

A) Because you are a top SL side and he can further his career with Leigh.
B) it was for the money
C) he couldn't get a gig elsewhere
My money is on B or C  |

I'm afraid you just did.
Great result for Batley though. |
