But if a contract is going to run out and you get nothing you are better off with a release clause where you get x amount of money if a bid is made.

Would imagine he is well over 200m then as he made that break in the 2nd half of about 30 - 40m's!!
The guy is just awesome I can't recall him ever having a bad game! as much as i'd hate him leaving Leigh I really hope he has a crack at SL

Unless i'm miss understanding you,it doesn't work like that.
Its the player who has the get out clause then he can walk when ever he wants to with or without a fee.
If there is no clause and another club comes in for him its up to the club whether they sell or not.It also allows them to negotiate a better price for him.

| The club can ask if there is a get out clause for a sub-clause (?) requesting a minimum fee or 'other' recompense to be given e.g. X number of home friendlies with the SL club, or that the player remain with the 'selling' club until end of season, long term loan of other players etc..

| That's what I thought it was like Fred, a kind of 'structured' contract. So that if a smaller club has a talented player, they get some kind of reward for him if they sell on.

| I wondered whether any SL club has ever stuck to that agreement, they usually announce 'a special agreement' with X club which always ends in tears.

| This is why it should be a proper transfer fee.

| The problem is that Super League clubs are too interested in signing the next second rate import (looking for quick fix) than signing talented young English players.

The way the Bulls did, when we just signed Kyle Briggs from Fev? And paid a sizeable transfer fee. And did it all above board, and both clubs happy.
Not fair to tar everyone with one brush?

Personally I think the issue is that it's to easy to say you are signing an NRL player and people then believe they are guaranteed a good player!

usually when you sign an overseas player you know what you are getting at least - conversely,if the english potential talent isn't given a chance how can we ever know[u if[/u they are good enough or not ?
The same applies to the Catalans overseas recruitment v the french talent of course.

I agree! When Hilly DOES go to a SL team and shows just how good he is there will be plenty of other teams wondering how they have overlooked such a great player in the lower leagues. I am amazed that Hilly still plays for us and we need to make the most of it while he is here as somebody will take him to SL eventually.
I have a terrible feeling that when widnes get promoted to SL they will try and take Hill with them as they know just how good he is as he has given them many problems in recent years. I hope not though

| Not good reading that Nozzy because like most Leythers I think he can do better than that.
Re Widnes and Non Relegation League I do not think promoted is the right word. Invited is better which says it all about the RFL's current attitude to on field success and which is why the Expansionist clubs will be the bottom 3 clubs in this the third year of this daft experiment which should be binned sooner rather than later. IMO of course.

| No guarantee Hill will leave, but I agree he'd have my blessing.
I'd love him to sign for Warrington but not sure that will ever come to fruition. Fingers crossed he sticks with us and eventually we get to the promised land, sooner rather than later.

I hope he goes somewhere else and as you say he can probably do better than widnes. Although i'd rather he went there than W*gan or HKR... just.
But if the majority of SL clubs stop looking overseas for talent then there are a few players in the championship who could have a lot to offer at SL level.

I apologise I must have misheard the stats what he (Ian) said was he was guessing it would be over 200m, the m gained were actually 184m, two other forwards also gained over 100m as did both wingers. Must clean my ears in the morning - or buy a deaf-aid.

Living in Warrington, I can guarentee you that they have tracking Hilly for some time.
If he goes sooner rather than later, It will more than likely be Wire.
The relationship between both clubs is very strong.

| I reckon Wire would be favourites - 'cos Chris knows it would break all our hearts if he signed for W*gan, and he's too nice a lad to do that to us!!
Of course, were IM to move back to SL before Chis leaves, you can bet your ar$e he'd be top of his shopping list for Basil's new club!!.......it wouldn't be the first time it's happened at Leigh!!

| Hilly may stay with us because it absolutely suits his lifestyle. Who is the local lad who refused to go pro because playing amature suited his lifestyle? Chris may have to give a lot up to be fulltime proffesional which may not appeal to him and his familly.

| I'll buck the trend and say I hope he doesn't go to SL unless its with us.
More than happy seeing him put in top dollar performances for a club he wants to be at.
