Some of the comments I am reading on here from Leigh fans are astounding. How have you all still got your heads firmly buried in the sand?

Of course it's all Ryan's fault, just as it was Rowleys fault for leaving too. Your club are continually lying to you, its supporters and you keep lapping it up.

Rangi having flu is the best one. The bloke has been checked into rehab, hence his exclusion last week and this weekend. He isn't the only who has been told to stay away from the club either.

From what I have seen of Leigh over the last few seasons, Ryan has been your stand out performer. Given absolutely everything to Leigh RLFC and has always ignored media speculation about his future and continued to put in big performances. Even with all this going on, he still put a big 80 mins in at Bradford last week and the reason for doing so, is because of each and every one of you (the fans) yet without knowing the full story, you've all turned on him.

Shame on you.

Someone on your Facebook page has suggested Kay and Beswick have been suspended, is that true? I've not seen it anywhere.

He knew all about the media speculation as it was probably his dad and his agent driving all the 'leaks'. The sky shots and leak on Thursday night were so orchesrated it was unbelievable. IMO of course

Just out of interest... Who is Brierleys agent?

Derek.

His Twitter name is very apt. "Show me the money".

Only what the club statement says, but i dont understand why the club would introduce Jukes unless he was involved, if Ryan had contacted Dereck direct the conversation would have lasted 1 minute and ended with " no "

I also dont see the benifit to the club of ostracising our only fit half back atm unless forced to

In truth I'd refuse to deal with or employ any player signed up to an agency with " Show me the money " as its name, Mr Cruise was a complete bell end in the movie, that tells us what we are dealing with

And when it came to the Middle 8's last season, he failed to deliver in epic style! The business owes Ryan Brierly nothing (apart from a bit of cash maybe) and he's just an employee who I would expect to give value for value. Now whether DB is back on the charlie or he's cutting costs in right places I think is up for debate right now. I'll go with the latter and expect the business to be in much better shape by the Middle 8's this year.

He was my lads agent, his agent is Barrie Mac now. In all fairness to Brierleys agent, Craig Harrison, nobody knows if he's done anything wrong. Yes his company makes you think if it's quite apt

Wake up. This has nothing to do with Ryan Brierleys agent, who incidentally is the biggest agent in UK RL. He manages over 70 RL players including big name stars like Zak Hardaker, Danny McGuire etc (one club men) he isn't engineering anything.

This decision is totally 100% the decision of Ryan Brierley and Ryan Brierley alone.

Really? In the games I saw, Ryan was often your best player. To blame your embarrassing performances in the 8's on one player is madness. As a team, you didn't perform, simple. It's worth remembering at this time of the year, all the players knew which signings had been made for 2016 - hardly the best confidence booster is it for existing players?

I think Ryan has given you more than enough "value".

Try the red pill

Off course it is. Maybe we should just resign our membership of the rfl.
