Paying a fee is further proof of how far we've come, and more importantly fires a warning shot to the rest of RL on how far we're prepared to go. Well done to PR and to the board for supporting his judgment.

Welcome aboard Greg hope you enjoy the ride

oh, just assumed you guys were.

I'm with Glow on this.

It seems clear that Paul has been tracking Greg Worthington for some time and has been very keen to secure his services. If the player is currently under contract to another club they have the right to negotiate a fee. Greg was in a 2-year deal and has been released one year early.

I suspect that there are more fees paid in rugby league in this situation than we realise. The very fact that we are able to be involved in this kind of a deal is for me a very encouraging sign. Have faith - if Paul thinks it is a good deal then there is every likelihood that it will be.

Greg has scored 54 tries in 101 appearances for Fev, 17 of these coming in 27 appearances this season. He can only get better under the guidance of our coaching staff in a full time environment.

Warning shot really????? after your recent money troubles im amazed your paying a fee for a mediocre player because thats all he is, i think its a great bit of business by our chairman, had a good few years Gregg but done nothing this year, you must have plenty of cash to throw around

Jealous or what.

I chatted to a lot of Fev fans before the game and asked them all if Worthington was fit to play. Without exception they were all hoping he would be in their side that evening.

Mediocre is not how I would describe the performances he gave when I watched him against the team I support.

FT training, under excellent coaching, using top facilities, he is young, eager to learn and develop. Imo a good bit of business by our head coach/bod.

Top try scorers for Featherstone this season according to Love Rugby League stats:
Sharp 28
Mendeika 21
Worthington 17
Hardman 12
Kain 12
Ellis 8
The Rest - not very many.

For a player who has apparently "done nothing this year" it looks like a fairly substantial return from Greg Worthington to me.

Wow! Really?

Gregs been decent for us and will be a miss next season ill agree but better than a former GB and england international in Newlove??!!

No disrespect to Greg but he couldnt even lace Newloves boots in my eyes

I hope Leigh fans arent expecting that level of quality
