| Quote Tipster Ste="Tipster Ste"The issue is with the compromise deal nothing to do with Leigh's contract with Gareth and we signed him as a free agent.
Having been involved in such deals they will be littered with numerous clauses and Marwan's certainly playing games. It certainly explains why his only comment on this is 'Gaz wont play' .
and all this as he said he loved Gaz and wanted him to wave farewell to the loyal 2.5k salford faithful... yet wont let him play against them for 18 months....The Doc is running scared from little Leigh...'"
Come on Ste, it is a shrewd move by Marwan. If you were an owner of a club releasing a player of Hocks ability, would you not insert such a clause within the agreement given how promotion and relegation will be played out this season? He didn’t know at the time he was signing for Leigh, he could have been going to any other Super League or top Championship team, so I don’t think he is playing games and running scared of ‘little Leigh’.
Gareth’s legal representatives have obviously overlooked the clause, as have Leigh Centurions whom I imagine would have undertaken the necessary due diligence. It sounds like a bit of a balls up on both parts.

| Quote bezzerscr="bezzerscr"The deal was you sign Hock with a clause in the contract or you sign Hock with no clause and pay a transfer fee. If you choose the second then you accept it or make an offer to buy the clause out.
It's almost the same as the Taylor deal at Salford Hull would not match Wigans asking fee so he goes on loan at Salford and when he becomes a free agent he goes wherever he chooses.'"
There was no deal between Salford & Leigh, Salford released Hock, Leigh signed him. Now it turns out there's this, as far as I know completely unprecedented, clause in his contract to leave Salford saying he can't play against them, which he (claims he) never knew about.

| Clear case of caveat emptor if you ask me.
Some legal eagles in Leigh with egg on face now perhaps?

In League Express "Beaumont told League Express "This Clause was something I was unaware of and Gareth was unaware of.""

He probably is. I doubt anyone would want a maniac like Hock on a RL field, never mind playing against their expensively assembled squad. Hock is a time bomb and Koukash did exactly the right thing in getting rid of him. If this clause exists, it's more about protecting his players from violence than not wanting him to beat them. You lot seem to be under the impression that Hock is still a good player? He's had about three flashes of brilliance in his career and nothing in the last 3 years.

The funny thing is..Hock isn't an issue for Salford anymore..Unfortunately for Salford,they still have Koukash.Once he decides to get his nose out of a game he has no education about and get back to signing cheque's..The better Salford,will become.
I know nothing on training race horses,but I know how to put a bet on...
