Higham will go to Featherstone I'm hearing today. Don't shoot the messenger !

That would be in line with getting rid of all Leigh-born players!

To be honest I think higham already on his way out I know a few sponsors won’t be happy about that situation

Big gamble taken on this half back as far as I can see. We've got rid of an experienced half back that has proven in the 8s in 2016 and for Hudds in 2017 that he is good enough for the level we're trying to get to, and replaced with potential.

If Higham goes as well, will be very poor.

So they have. You know, I heard young Drew's name mentioned a few weeks ago but never took it seriously or believed we could pull it off.

This lad is very higly rated. Australia U18s, New South Wales U20s skipper V Quuensland U20s. He could well prove to be the real deal. Well done all at Leigh.

I was told about the young half back weeks ago and knew he was coming it was just when he was going to be announced and with what happened today brought it forward think we was saving this one a little longer

How do the few sponsors feel about the new blood situation? Club seems to be getting all back on board!

Must be getting near our quota now - Bodene Thompson, Mortimer, Vaivai, Mata'utia, Hutchison, plus the three French lads - (Bergal, Dezaria, and Larroyer) - or do our EU players not count, until after Brexit?

Is it 5 quota and 2 non fed ?? Think we are ok with the French as they surely fall under the fed system. Some of the others may well fall under non-fed rather than quota - would love to keep Brown as he can cover 1-5, like to see him at 1

Allegedly , bizarre scenario to have what seems to be such a total wipe out

A bit strong the wording of this post but it seems like ethnic cleansing of Rowleys players and Leigh lads is taking place
