As this been confirmed Dek ?

I cant see it myself theres too many teams after/enquired about him for it to make sense for him to go on loan in the championship. I would be more worried if Leigh signed a player like that than I would be if they got Chase.

This appears to be the RFL interpretation in its Operational Rules. Dead simple - just get us, Dewsbury and Ben to agree and he's back - unless there are other 'conflicting rules lurking somewhere!



[iC1:2:15 Any loan (whatever its original duration) may be terminated after it has subsisted for at least 28 days by: (i) written agreement of the Player and both Clubs; or (ii) in accordance with any agreement set out in the Loan agreement which termination shall be notified to the Board in writing,[/i

Hope we've also got it written into the agreement that we can take him back, would seem very short sighted not to. Even without Chase coming I'd leave him at Dewsbury, he's better off playing every week at a good Championship club so he's fit & ready if we do need him rather than sitting in the stand. It would be a blow to Dewsbury if that happened but that's the risk you take relying on a player on loan, though they've got a great player for the season if we don't need him back.

Bob on Tipster.

For anyone to suggest that a full time Pro RL player, even in the Championship is on sub £10k p.a is magic mushroom talk.

I know bus drivers on approx £7.60 p/h & at the other extreme £11.15 p/h, that's £15,808 p.a for a low paid driver on a 40hr week & £23,192 p.a for the high paid driver on the same 40hr week.

I don't see many at Leigh on less than £20k & a Rangi should be able to draw approx £60k +.

So what price for Riddy, Kes, Hock, Fui etc. I suspect Riddy & Kes would be £30k + while Hock & Fui could be £40k men.

"Only Penky, Barlow & maybe Wilkes" in the £10k bracket @Greg Florimos Boots
I take it your unemployed & have no idea what a living wage is ?

Ste your bus driver eg is correct but full time RL players earn a lot more than that or they would not go full time.

Leigh Centurions fans will not want to miss Derek Beaumont's EXCLUSIVE @LeighObserver column tomorrow #leighrl #rugbyleague

Ste I don't know where you are getting your figures from but believe me the players you named are on much more than your quote,60 grand for Rangi?Treble that ,he was on over 200 grand at Salford that is why Leigh will have to unload around 3 players to sign him Hock and Fui around 100 G a season along with Harrison H,Sam Barlow told a Fax player he was on 60 G a year,let's be real.

Rangi and Fui 100k easily.

Kes 60-80k.

Most other FT above 40k as you would expect !

Im here Mick, shame on us hey trying to sign a world class player... remind me again who your mob are signing?

Greg with the greatest respect in the world based off what you have written about salaries you have no idea what a championship player earns PT or FT. There wont be a player in the Championship on £192 a week



To help you; start dividing £1m by 25 for FT average salaries and divide 500K by 25 for top end Championship PT average salaries.

Ste 100 we can all speculate what amount the players are being paid, but you have to realise they are giving up a lot to play rugby ,by that I mean Drinking, Eating ,and Social sacrifices ,I would think they are well paid even the average squad player must be on around 25 grand a year,so Fui, Hock, Hansen, Patterson, Higham,and Co must be on a fair bit more, then you have Riddy , Brierley,Kay,Barlow,McNally ,and I bet Weston will be a bit,good luck to them a Rugby career is a short one and they do put their bodies on the line.

You are making a very common mistake and not allowing for a lot of players 'salaries' been made up of appearance money and win bonuses. I bet the majority of championship players wish that you were sorting out their contracts if you think there arnt many part time players on less than 10K a year.

Im not sure anyone is complaining about what the players are earning Charlie. For me they are vastly under paid for what they do but i can say that because I see them the day after games with their battered bodies knowing that a lot of them are earning less than 10K per year doing what they do.

Do I believe the average salary for a prop forward in the championship is about 7K? I have no reason to doubt the person who told me that and given how his career has gone he certainly should command more than that.

Mate if you are now saying the average contract is £134 a week plus appearance and win money pass me what your drinking

unless of course we are in a time machine and its 1988?

Do you struggle to read?

Again I will say I don't know what players earn,I do have a good idea what most Leigh player's are on, also remember they are full time.The average Leigh player must be on around 25 grand a year to make it worthwhile for what he sacrifices in life, I also realise there must be Championship players on much less than what I have suggested,as I don't expect all Clubs to pay what Leigh are paying.
I would however expect players like Faxes Calahane ,Tangata ,and Ambler to be on more than what you quote,any player on a full time contract must be being paid a reasonable amount otherwise they would stay part time.

I know Richard Moore was on £35 k last year as a PT player. That was told to me by a current squad member who I was talking to who said he wouldn't mind been on that a a FT player.

Different players command different salaries and if a coach feels it is financially viable and will add benefit and can afford it why not.

Went really well for you last year didn't it. Bottom of the eighths!!. Fax spend less than half and take home the bacon. We will keep doing the right things and you keep doing your thing. Talking hot air and getting egg on your face, that's the way it went most of the year last year for your chairman and he started the close season in the same fashion. No reason to believe this will change next year either.

Sorry to disappoint you Tipster but my name is Terry

once again Leigh are trying to show their muscle in signing Chase trouble is the RFL won't wear King Degsy ,he said he would hire a Barrister

Degsy you can hire a Philadelphia Lawyer they couldn't help you your money doesn't talk ,Leigh are a Championship Club get over it.
As for Fax we are a team united ,not a team of Prima Donnas we have no big names or big earners just graters who put Fui , Mickey H,and Brierley to the sword last season ,get over it Tipster you keep being Degsy's Lackey it suits you keeping his ego so big.

Another post too bookmark..lol Glad it's not me.

Atomic even some Leigh fans regard you as a Clown



maybe one of Charlie's boys,I've read a few of your posts at night if I can't sleep it always sends me to ZZZZZZzzzzzzs ,I bet you are fun at parties.

So losing 2 out of 3 games to Leigh last season is putting us to the sword us is it?

I agree with everything you have said Charlie. My post a couple down from my first one discussing wages did say that I had totally forgot to take in to account that leigh had gone full time and I was making assumptions on that basis so I would have been a long way out. I also expect our forwards to be on more than what I said the average was, as you know Charlie, our forwards are far from average.

Here he is, i thought you had gone in to hibernation after your defeat by the might Fax in the middle 8's. To be fair though i think you did predict a big victory you just got the wrong team, the wrong forwards and pretty much all else you predicted way out.



PS Only jesting, bring on the new season.
