Have Leigh missed out on him?

Thought he was going to Toronto? I think hes a really good player, we should have retained him. Funny how he hasn't gone to a bigger club.

Can't see how we have missed out when we let him go he is probably playing at his level now at Swinton.

He will be a good player for swinton. His oz adventure did not last long.

Not that long ago Charlie was on the Fax forum proclaiming him as one of the best forwards in the league.

Summat very strange gone on there, anyroads onwards and upwards, will do a good job for them - good player but wouldn't get in our 17 now

Lost all respect for jake

Now now BFG , I deny saying this, pray show me where I made this statement, Mr Emmitt was never one one my fave Leigh player's , so I think you are wrong there.

So he left with our best wishes having said an opportunity had come up in OZ so DB let him out of his contract. A few weeks later it was rumoured he was off to Toronto....after his stint in Oz.....now a week later he signs for Swinton. Lucky Swinton eh not having to pay a transfer fee. Liar liar pants on fire

I would guess he is in for the remainder of the season to keep him in the game, before joining Toronto for next season - but that's complete speculation!

who cares ?

Loyalty works both ways, from the player then the club (I believe?).

Jake was a decent enough player at leigh and I wish him all the best .I'm have the opinion that many others have , that is we just want players who want to play for leigh and give it their all for the club. If you don't then see you later !!

Disappointed with Jake, but he would be back up now. I think we should have all the Toronto bound players on lie detectors as to when and how they were approached, it's a good job Derek has deep pockets otherwise we would be in a mess and the PR strategy a success. Negative motivation doesn't last boys.

Annoying when people make up things you didn't say isn't it?

No not really , I know I never said that, as Jake Emmitt was a workhorse of our Squad , but NEVER classed as one of the best in the Championship



I mean can ANY of our players rise to the heady heights of Tangata and Calahanes class?





Then the question is Can you keep your so -called Class

players on such a low playing budget next year?But before that you have the Tough away trips to Swinton , Haven ,and Bradford to encounter,and then 4 crowd pullers at the Shay.Remember WE are not in the same League anymore.Charlie knows.

But you said he was the best Charlie so Im inclined to bow down to your incredible knowledge. Of course now he has left Leigh you would deny all knowledge of saying that.

I do not think Jake was enjoying his time at Leigh as much post Rowley and a compromise was agreed to the benefit of both parties.

Good luck for the future Jake.

Yeah OK, I'll buy that for a Dollar.

I also believe that to be the case, I was told he nearly walked when PR left but he was on a good contract as a FT player so wouldn't have walked away unless a job was waiting with his chums, if we knew that fine but if it was to avoid a fee by deceit then .....

Ian Didn't our players vote Jake "Players Player of the year" at least once

Im not sure on that one Ste, for me he was a good workmanlike player,I think he has found his niche with Swinton and Toronto.

Fact is he is a liar - clearly had no intention to stay in Oz

Always liked Jake, got on with his job, made yards, tackled well and probably could do a full 80 if needed.

This is all just odd but fits it with all the off-field antics that have surrounded the club this season.
