Quote: Harold Rigby Jnr "I could not agree more about Greg Worthington. He has been the best centre outside SL this year and is a young player I would have loved to have seen stay with us and develop his career further here at Leigh.'"

Harold I have acknowledged your info in the past,I'm not sure about Fui and where he is in mind of contracts but I have heard he has had an offer from Toulouse for next season.

Quote: Bent&Bongser "Something else occurs to me about this whole Canadian shenanigans; if teams like Batley only have a playing budget of £150K (M.E.N. recently) what are the budgets of the teams in League One? All those players will only be making tuppence 'a'penny from RL and having to hold down full time jobs. Whilst Toronto are, under the terms of the franchise, obliged to reimburse all the visiting oppositions' expenses, what about the lost time at work for the players? Even if you are expecting a tonking, it's not safe to fly across the Atlantic and play Rugby against pros without adjustment days. I know that it amounts to only one trip a year but it would probably see a week of your holiday allowance gone. Mrs Bongser for one would not be too impressed with that especially as it wouldn't result in a whole new outfit.

I think that Red Hall's pursuit of the expansionist dream is, as usual, dumping on the grass roots game.

As to the recruits from Leigh, I don't like the way that PR has ripped up the PR handbook, but if players are going because they see that they have been ousted from pole position by better ones, it only bodes well for Leythe. Wish them well if they want to pursue the Toronto SL dream but I'd advise them against believing any promises made by a certain man regarding their personal involvement there!'"

BaB, with regards your last paragraph, I agree players see it as a Canadian adventure, with a few quid to be earned as well, I ant blame them and I feel we have replaced them with better players and if we get to SL I don't think Derek and Jukesy will let us down in terms of recruitment.

Wouldn't it be the same for a Challenge Cup game?

Moi Moi has trained the house down all year, to secure a final playing contract with Leigh for one more year. He has had a good season IMO.

I do believe he now has that offer on the table.

Fair point, Atomic, though for each semi-pro or amateur team, the chances of an away tie are reasonably slim.

My youngest daughter's favourite player, she will certainly hope that he pops his monicker on a Leigh contract. If the management believe he's worth a new contract, despite increasing niggles, then I'll be right behind them.

Fuifui Moimoi has had a brilliant season.

For me, Fuifui reminds me why I love this sport. If it was all just about winning trophies everybody would support Wigan/Saints/Leeds. But at the end of the day we watch rugby because we love it and because we enjoy it, and Moimoi makes me ENJOY my rugby.

He is a huge character and an absolute joy to watch. Moimoi would be in my team on merit and because he adds something special to our squad. But beyond that, he really puts the FUN back into rugby league and I really appreciate that. I get a lift from the moment his name is announced and you can feel that going through the whole stadium.

Fuifui Moimoi puts the fun back into rugby league and into Leigh Centurions, and I love him for it! a014.gif

Ian , yours and the previous 3 posts say how much you all rate Fui, and what a great player and a good bloke he is, but I've heard he is considering this Toulouse offer,maybe he fancies a final season in the French sun,I agree he has come back from illness and done well, time will tell if he is offered a new Contract, and then if he signs it.

I heard a few months back Fui had signed for Leigh reserves but who would blame the big man for having one last big pay day the big man has nothing to prove and if we did go up don't think he would cut it week in week out in super league but on the other Hand can you imagine wot he would do to the likes of Oxford and Hemel stigs. icon_lol.gif

What's your financial backing got to do with me disliking the continual Toronto crap? Intill I see and hear things with my own eyes I believe nothing. I have only seen what Paul and those players have done on the field. The rest I really don't care about.

Dixon has been in our squads of 19 for recent games. He possibly could still have a job to do for us this season, before he moves on.

Correct Alan. The likes of Dixon and Armstrong will be busting a gut to bow out from this group as winners.

You often hear a team mention the phrase ' creating memories together'.

Both are total professionals, and I have absolutely no concerns with either.

Let's hope that they turn out to be treasured memories for all members of the squad that still wish to help deliver SL to LSV. No problem with any that fall into that category. Bon chance to them thereafter and the devil take the rest! icon_twisted.gif
