Snowy, You say ‘There are LOTS of players signed up but cannot be announced yet for obvious reasons’
Please could you tell us the obvious reasons?

The Players not mentioned must still be involved in Play Offs both in SL and NRL  |

| Quote: Ste100Centurions "As always mate, I have zero inside knowledge which might/might not be a good thing so I just don't know past what D.B has openly stated. In fact maybe you & others could pass an eye over these highly contentious rumours ?
1. A now retired ex Leigh player punched John Duffy *allegedly*
2. 2 now retired ex Leigh players were refusing to play *allegedly*
3. Neil Jukes is unofficially responsible for recruitment of playing squad with direct input from the owner *allegedly* , important to stress that I have nothing against the owner.
4. D.B was refusing to pay the return air fare of one of our Aussie imports *allegedly Brendan Elliot* & that the team *allegedly* had threatened the club/owner with a strike & refusal to take the field at Magic Weekend if not resolved. !
5. D.B has suggested that he will consult with his lawyers over the possibility of sueing S.L/RFL which is Fact, however I read (probably on this site) that a member S.L Club cannot sue other S.L Clubs/the RFL as a condition of membership *allegedly* , I would think that in itself could be legally challenged !
6. D.B offered Shaun Wane £250k to see out the season at Leigh *when Duffy resigned* but Wane declined due to his England commitments & a possible return to Wigan as D.O.R !
All of these are rumours I have seen or heard either here on this site, from a guest in an Executive box, or on the terrace etc & all AFAIK have varying degrees of truth or absurdity !
Interested to have any of these *rumours* put to bed but equally if any have real substance could point to why Leigh is such a troubled club recently.'"
A relative of Sean Wane told a sponsor Leigh had offered him a huge sum for 2022/3/4 a figure Wigan told him they could not match - that gives me hope that at last DB knows what we need |

We should have signed Chris Hill for next season and made him Captain. But he has already been announced as having signed for Huddersfield (whilst still being involved in play-offs)

knockonknockon, I don’t understand your response to my suggestion that Leigh should have signed Hilly. He is 33 yrs old, we could afford him, he has strong allegiance with the club, and he came through the ranks at Leigh. Also it would have saved him a drive across the Pennines 4 or 5 times week.

He is Wires only prop imo, letting him go was a huge mistake. If we had been given the nod as to staying up I believe he would be with us - he wants a WC spot next season and wont get that outside SL |

Wigan fans are claiming that Wane is the D.O.R at the Pie Dome next year ! |

Which has been the claim for a while, but the relative said Leigh offered a huge contract to establish them in SL that Wigan could not match - I assume that will be off the table if we are relegated |

And thats one of the reasons we will go nowhere with DB's throw cash at the problem attitude. If he had accepted that alleged massive offer he would be coming for the money, I'd suggest an unknown Aussie for the next coach, its worked quite successfully before wouldn't you agree? |
