What money do you think they deserve after being relegated?

He's been ok. Has more go forward than most of our pack, but also has plenty of mistakes in him. Still can't do as many minutes as you'd hope as well

No, but I wouldn't have Hopkins as a 'bums on seats' signing.

I suspect KC is finding a number of contracts offered by DB over the last 12-24 months to be excessive.

Richards for Hopkins

Paterson, Hopkins, Vea, Stewart, Hock, Maria, Pellisier, Hood and Green out, Thompson in ? some pack we'll have


Nowt like continuity

Bingo !! They are / were on unbelievable money and it was a real eye opener to KC !! Collectively they have all been paid way way over the odds. When that is so, the minimum expected in return is commitment.

As for Hopkins and you have already alluded to it, perhaps the biggest clue of all is in his nick name.

Let's be clea,r the gravy train is over and if anyone wants any decent money that may be on offer, they have to earn it.

Welcome to Leigh RLFC 2018 .

Think you have nailed it there pal. Silly money paid as we didn't have the experience in place to know market value, I expect agents have had a field day, not the players fault for accepting above value deals

Totally agree. The retainment of players should be based on the season in question. Not whats gone before.

Contract payments will always be an area of debate, whose worth it and who is not! I think it became very obvious to most during the season just who wasn't worth a contract at all!
Glen Stewart was hailed as a bit of a coup signing for Leigh and many have criticised his performances throughout the season however, his defence was excellent and he was usually amongst the top tacklers! the MPG showed he made over fifty tackles and that's not the performance of someone who wasn't trying! Whoever had him playing first receiver made a big mistake because this was not Stewarts game!

1 swallow a summer does not make though.. He was ok in the last game of the season, pretty poor for the rest.

Also tackle stats can be misleading as he could be the 3rd tackler.

I believe it was Stewart who took it upon himself to tell Riddy to go move and he'd play standoff, and then having a mare.

It makes no difference what role he/they had.They simply were not good enough.
