Brough has nothing to do with Leigh.

We saw something in him and gave him a try. Decided it wasn't right but Leigh decided they see something they'd like to develop.

How on earth is that stopping the game moving forward.

Probably a good move for player and club.

Don’t see personally how hr becomes a regular SL player but a move may freshen him up and see him kick on.

Very vocal lad on and off the field not always in a positive way. Big influencer around his peer group and maybe a fresh start in a new environment will give him a bit of grounding.

Lets just say there were a few off field issues with one in particular involving a minibus

That was up in Workington wasn't it?

Enough said

Hence, I'm sure, "wanted to go"...
