Ooops.

Am I missing something or does that only say that Brierley has a clause saying he can leave if Rowley leaves? I'm sure that lots of players have lots of clauses in their contracts. They have "tried" to contact the player but have no comment from him. Just smacks of 5hite and lazy journalism trying to forge a story where there isn't one yet.

The cynic in me thinks this 'scoop' might have come from his agent who was eager to make other clubs aware of the clause in his contract.

If there even is one. What are the rumours about Leigh? It's blatantly obvious that they've gone above the salary cap, but is that what has made Rowley leave? Are they facing another financial implosion, given how idiotic their owner is in public I cannot imagine how he runs a successful business.

So now that the salary cap rules have changed for Championship clubs allowing them to spend the same as Super League clubs. You are suggesting that Leigh have found a way around registering the players contracts with the RFL that allows them to spend over the new increased salary cap without the RFL noticing it? All the checks that the RFL now put in place have been by-passed by the Leigh club. Wow.

Under the live cap, the RFL are reliant on the club self-declaring any changes to contracts which impact on its aggregate liability.

It's still entirely possible for a club to do what Melbourne did, and have one set of books for the RFL and another for its own eyes only. Not saying that's what's happened at Leigh, but the idea that the live cap somehow prevents clubs from breaking it is nonsense.

Should the title of this thread not be HMS - as in Her Majesty's Ship? Though I do see Risk Management Solutions may also be relevant.

Well,since that went public last night the blue-eyed boy of the rugby league press has not made any statement - nor has Brierley. It's not as though he hasn't replied to 'rumours' before - You can decide on the veracity www.totalrl.com/centurions-issue ... a-rumours/

Definitely. Contract A declared to RFL. Contract B paid as a consultancy payment by Company X Ltd, unrelated to SL club. Who finds that?

I didn't realise the cap had gone up so much, seems ridiculous.

If he any ambition he will surely activate his clause.

If there is such a clause. I have lost count of the amount of rumours and stories and outright fabrications around Ryan Brierley over the past 3 years. It is bizarre. He has signed for Wire once, Leeds 3 times and Salford more than that and yet he still keeps turning up for work at the LSV.

Will take this latest one with a pinch of salt until anything official is announced.

We should hire somebody as the official Ryan Brierley rumour refuter. It would be a full time job!

are Yorkshire folk still jealous of Leigh?

Oh dear the hatred still burns strong in the usual suspects on here .......let it go let it go let it gooooooooooo

Still?

HMS is the suffix for Naval vessels, whereas Merchant ships are more often suffixed SS, howeever RMS is a correct title foe a Merchant ship registered to carry Mail, it stands for Royal Mail Ship, a well known example being the RMS Titanic, though one certainly hopes Leigh avoid the fate of that unfortunate craft.

Fascinating post,thanks for that.

I'll just add theres nothing thats been said that suggest theres a problem a Leigh

Quite correct.Nothing has been said.Unusual for the people at the Leigh club.

When a skipper abandons a ship it does signify a problem.

Hence the analogy.

I am surprised at the shock and lack of information amongst all the hordes of Centurions followers concerning many matters at the club.

Lost players,resignations,future appointments.

Could be like the Marie Celeste in no time.

The skipper himself has said its for personal reasons,You think thats a lie,thats fine,a couple of facts that you know of wouldnt go amiss?

There are lots of @LSV cats that roam these forums,sometimes they serve a purpose,sometimes its better to shoo them away.

No idea about your third point.

Cant see the club disappearing again as it it did in 2012/13,you underestimate Derek Beaumont & the other directors

Another deep & insightful post from the Troll known as Meat Head.

I think you'll find that HMS is a prefix, not a suffix.

Never been called that before?
I'm no troll and simply being mischievous by playing on what was said , mainly, by Leigh fans last year
Don't get stroppy because Leigh are imploding

He said that the reason he resigned was personal, not personal reasons. There is a big difference between the two phrases. Personal reasons suggests that it was something in his home life, a reason which is personal suggests that it will remain a secret

come on everyone please leave Leigh alone - They do not want to be distracted from going unbeaten the entire season, winning the challenge cup, then strolling through the Super 8's into Super League, before their 2017 season of eclipsing Leeds Rhinos 2015 treble by also adding WCC to their trophy cabinet.

. And yes that's our seasons goals what's your clubs

Imploding ? We'll have a new coach for 2016 and our scrum half, who isn't an actual scrum half, might leave ? Wow....gonna throw my season ticket in the bin !

Come on folks, Leigh will be challenging for SL titles within 3 years.

Remember, we have our very special owner, hated by most but loved by HIMSELF.

And for gods sake, don't have an opinion that is not the same as his - he will simply not like you.

His next coach will be someone who does as he's told - simples!
