Jake Emmitt signed for us this afternoon

Oh dear

Good signing. Gives us some size up front and can do big minutes. Welcome back Jake.

Agreed. I'm happy with that.

If he keeps out the grubby stuff he started doing for Toronto and plays like he did before he went Toronto it's a great signing

Are we a stop over for him til he signs for the Storm

No better than what we got

Maybe, maybe not. However, we are short on numbers; we haven't replaced Andy Bracek; the odds are that Luke Douglas will eventually end up back at Saints; Jack Ashworth is already back in Saints first team squad; we haven't got the cash to splash on SL props; and Jake Emmitt has been holding down a regular place at the top Championship club, and is very durable.

All in all, I still reckon he's a good signing for us, in our circumstances.

Would be a good signing for me, grubby little shirt the way he left us but hey ho

The other question for me is why we are making signings, we ain’t going up and we ain’t going down, for me save the £££ till next year

Need a couple of backs now

Thats the main question? Then again according to the Journal we had Theo Fages playing for us v Swinton. So much for local media coverage.

For our route to the Challenge Cup Final, as we can't use Saints players !

(Currently only have 19 fit Leigh players)

How many did we set off with?

Derek sounded positive on the Radio, and i dont think he is going anywhere.

He must have realised that we don't have a bad little team and the Championship is one good division from team 1 to team 14.

Such a pity that we had the two Narrow defeats to York and Halifax (And Toronto in a way). Winning 2 of them games would have been a start which would be a complete reversal on last year !

22 I think. Now minus Bracek & Russell, but gained Hood....oh, and there's 3 yet to play for us.

Did he ever get to Australia when he left us?

For 2 weeks apparently

Clean slate for me. We need a big prop (of our own) and Jake fits the bill. He also got a point to prove (or a wrong to right, depending on your view) so let's hope he gets straight down to business.
Good signing for me

Jake left originally by mutual consent. At the time, Jake was not happy and Leigh were more than happy to release him. That's it.

I thought our pack looked very small last week, compared to Swinton's. It is a testament however to hard our players are grafting to get us a competent win.

That said there is no denying we desperately need to add some size and Jake brings that and for very long minutes.

Belting signing.

Jake's version of how things went, last time around. https://leighrl.co.uk/wp/blog/2019/03/1 ... ke-emmitt/ Whilst he doesn't say how long he was there, he does give a reason for finishing in 'Oz'. I'd also forgotten that he didn't go direct to Toronto - he went to Swinton, in fact. Anyway, to (re)use my oft-used mantra - "there's always two sides to a story."

"Clean slate" as far as this corner is concerned. In their relegation season following liquidation (and, yes, hampered by a twelve point deduction) Bradford relied heavily on D/R and loanees and made a reasonable start but the parent clubs increasingly recalled their lads as injuries started to bite back at home and The Bulls faded badly as a result.

Welcome additional, Leythe solely grunt therefore. Let's back the fellah!

Are you working the same shifts as 'atomic', B&B?

Well I suppose we have saved money on scouting to find another Joe Cator

He has something to prove for mine.He has come from a full time environment though,in his pomp at 30 so should be starring for us, breaking tackles,knocking em down.

Anyone in our team has my support but it doesnt make them the next Adrian Morley.

Anyone know where leythe is?

Next to Morley's deckchair.
