Sorry Cokey, but this will take some living down - I thought Wildcats was bad but this...
I don't know if there ever were any Centurions in Leigh, but it still seems more connected than Leopards.
Also, isn't one of the French RL clubs called Leopards?

I can understand why they may want to "re brand", start of a new era and all that but, Leigh Centurians was a decent name, only let down by their playing prowess in SL.
They are certainly throwing some money around though. However, with the new system that is likely to come in, perhaps they should be investing in their academy and in chalking up some pionts towards being an A rated club ? |

Stupidity and lack of imagination.
People wax lyrical about the Bulls rebrand and true it worked to a degree, though IMO Northern was unique enough. I suppose a Bull just about fits in with the idea of a tough sport. But after that it just gets silly. Rhino's I hate, it's just crap, probably our premier big city club with a cartoon badge, yuk.
Cas have a defense in that they were calling themselves the Tigers in the late sixties I believe. It derives from the colours and I kinda get that.
But generally I hate the silly monikers, it shows what a monumental inferiority complex our game has about being Northern. I love it and I'd love is to push it to the max and be uber Northern, stuff anyone who doesn't like it.

Think Bradfords early nickname was fantastic T'old steam pigs.
Dont mind Dewsbury Rams either as natural links with Heavy Woolen area.
As far as Leeds goes , think Loiners is also good and unique, so why did they choose Rhinos
Finally Flat cappers suits Fev , that would be good as a rebrand.

Leeds Luddites has an alliterative ring to it. |

Love how some other clubs are releasing spoof name changes. Barrow Budgies is class.

Cas were going to call themselves Cougars but got beaten to it by Keighley, similarly that Whitehaven were going to add Warriors but Wigan nicked that one. |

I think we are extremely lucky to have such a legendary and iconic name... TRINITY really takes top spot I think

Why do you keep mentioning throwing money around?
Leigh can only spend the cap and they have retained Amone, Asiata, Ferguson, Smith, Ipape, Lam, ODonnell, Wardle, Charnley, Brand, Nakabuwai, Reynolds, Nisbett, Mellor, Chamberlain. Macdonald and added O’Brien, Hardaker, Leutele, Mulhern, Davis, Gannon, Hughes, Holmes and Briscoe.
Looks like an decent position for October with room for more.

Doesn't sound like Leigh have had any input from fans before the name change.
