Probably because one of the main problems the game faces is that top level half backs are in very short supply, with Ridyard, Brierley , Reynolds, McNally & Ward I'd say we're actually quite blessed with talent in halves.

Yes we do have a lot of forwards but that's a good thing, most likely to get injured, most in need of rotation, sure Rowley can never have too many.

Fuifui Moimoi is one of the biggest names in the world of rugby league, not sure what other available signing we could have made that'd be getting headlines on both sides of the world.

The Maurice feels the watcher is right to have a point of view, even if it is blinkered and does not see out of the box
The Maurice noted the examples of previous flops and chuckled at the comparisons, the Maurice knows nothing in life is guaranteed but the benefits off field and within the squad of having the MoiMoi in the ranks are huge and far bigger than any of the players dragged up for comparison
The Maurice feels sad that some peoples lives are half empty and wishes them a speedy recovery

well said 'The Maurice' !!!

The Maurice feels sad that some peoples lives are half empty and wishes them a speedy recovery'"

The fevfan76 is wondering what all these off field benefits are. Does the Maurice really believe the fans will flock to see this curly haired prop. The Fevfan76 feels that if I was a Leigh fan who had stopped watching a few years ago for whatever reason, then the success of the team last season would have brought me back or at least rekindled my interest. The fevfan76 believes that If winning every week and looking like getting in SL isn't gonna bring fans in then nowt will. Not even MoiMoi.

The (I cant be d any more). A few years ago when we got dumped for SL and had all the talk about mergers. Lots of fev fans stopped watching a vowed never to come again. I know people who still wont, but many have come back due to our recent success. Its success that will bring fans back, watching a winning team or gaining promotion to SL. Thats something I think you would achieve without MoiMoi.

The watcher's examples of experienced players signed and 'not done well', is quite comical. Jon roper for one bagged a few tries for us, Robbie Paul dove on the loose ball at Blackpool that won us the cup. Then there's the omissions from your list, like Murphy, swann, Jules o'neill, tommy Martyn,Simon Knox, Paul rowley, Ollie Wilkes and far too many more to name.

I hope that Leigh Centurions have acquired the services of Mr. Moi Moi within the bounds of the Championship salary cap. If this purchase is not all above board, then it will likely come back to bite you.

Rest assured that accountants from London are paying close attention to this matter.

Get back to 'loving' that Aussie urine drinker....

Surprised that Jean (or to give him his full name as is his wont - Jean-Dix) was prepared to the murky depths such as this, we are indeed honoured and grateful that we are beneficiaries of his wisdom, patronage and his evident inside knowledge of what is going on.

Here arrives the franchise loving RL saviour... How did you mange to find such a lowly website?

The ' Fuifui effect ' is working already

The salary cap is a 'live' month by month thing and contracts have to be approved by the RFL. I also trust the stewards of my club have done everything above board, especially considering the massively increased salary cap we have access to this year. We've definitely got the cap room, so anything else would probably be considered a tax dodge and very underhand dealings. Not the kind of accusation to throw around lightly.

Is Fui Fui related to Robert Moi Moi who played for Leigh in 1988?

Great signing for you guys, I have been watching him in on PR Sports in the NRL for a few years, big player, big character, he could have the same impact a certain Joe Grimma had for my team Keighley back in the 90s, I would imagine his cult following at Leigh will be right up there with a certain Timmy Street(used to love watching him play, ticking time bomb springs to mind) love Fui's famous quote from 2003 after the coach at South's questioned him on his training or lack of it, at the time he only played off the bench “Fuifui play 10 minutes, Fuifui train 10 minutes,” .

Remember no one enters the lottery to worry about all the £1/£2s you lost, you think about the millions you can win !
