Totally agree. Leigh Leopards are fortunate to have such a passionate set of fans. Times have changed since the introduction of IMG but the club have continued to take a naïve approach to the Fandom category and it is not surprising that we are amongst the least successful in our number digital subscribers compared with other clubs. In order to maintain and hopefully grow the level of support it is wrong to take the fans for granted with such poor communication.

This was one rumour that never went away.

“It’s just club policy that we don’t discuss those sort of rumours or let’s say speculation that are linked to our club,” Lam said.

“It’s something that Chris Chester (Leigh’s head of rugby) is driving at the moment and if there is any further information to be had we will let anyone know as soon as that happens.

I reckon he was in the bag and signed up by Leigh months ago. All the contract extension saga at Newcastle came too late. I think that he was already our signing.

Pure speculation on my part

Degsey did say last week that a player was to arrive (last Friday). I think that's what a couple of posters were alluding to. I guess the club like to play cloak-and-dagger a little bit.

Great news if it comes off, I’ve never known a time in the last 10 years where the NRL churn out Full Backs who are ridiculously good, if he’s half as good as Teddy, Turbo, Edwards, Papenhausin, Gutherson we are in for a real treat
