| I too think Mortimer signed a contract with no clause.
He stated this on GMR.
Saying that, contracts are worth nothing nowadays !!

| But I thought it was not so much about clauses in the contract, but RFL rules mean that both player and club have 3 months notice to stay or go.

| Yes there is certainly some legislation in place regarding a 3 month 'cooling of period'
I think however you may have to have been here a certain amount of time for that to apply. Mortimer signed a contract for 2018 knowing there was every chance the club could be relegated 6 weeks later.

| Is it not a big weakness of MPG that you are basically on a free contract? Could another team or agent not be filling a players head with promise of a big signing on fee for a new club should they lose? It seems wide open to exploitation and a lot easier than feigning homesickness.

| Monty what about Toronto squad makes them the team too beat? Ashton sims wouldn't of got in our aging pack this year... Dave Taylor is unfit and overweight had half a good season in nrl and he's living off that.. Toronto has a good squad but certainly no better than what we have with a few old heads too go out and some good signings too come in.

| Quote Harold Rigby Jnr="Harold Rigby Jnr"Most of the players on Peter list had already been told they would not be here next year regardless of which division we were playing in. Some of their own choosing, Drinkwater had already informed the club he and his partner would be more than likely be returning home to Australia at the end of the year.
Daniel Mortimer will be in big demand, but it will require a huge fee from another SL club to snare him away from Leigh. I think he will stay and give us 12 months but the dust of the 2017 season is yet to settle.'"
So Drinkwater going to Toronto then
Promising news about Mortimer also, would love him to stay but in all honesty don't expect him to. Hopefully he may feel he owes us, but if not at least we will get dosh to invest elsewhere

| Quote Harold Rigby Jnr="Harold Rigby Jnr"I may be wrong here, and I do hope some will correct me if I am but those players that came in late in the season signed contracts with no SL clause's stated in them.
I believe we do have some 'better' signings to announce that will supersede the hole of those leaving ( Goodwin aside - Yes that is a shame we do not have an opportunity to see him in SL , for Leigh)'"
Don't all contracts only expire on the 30th November? The rules state!
"If a Club's divisional status for the forthcoming season will not have been decided by 31st August,the Club may make two offers of re-engagement,one to cover each of the divisions."
Goodwins contract must have covered Championship,which would have kicked in on 1st December. Or Leigh wouldn't have got a fee.
Someone had the Clubs best interest at heart..

By that reckoning, you'd think any other contracts that covered championship would now be announced already.

Understandable. He was homesick living in Leigh, plus didn't speak English very well.
