The Future is League Posted July 10, 2021 Share Posted July 10, 2021 It's difficult to know who's got the better deal here with below average players swapping poor performing clubs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josef K Posted July 10, 2021 Share Posted July 10, 2021 Beaumont is disappointed a Huddersfield player turned down the chance to join winless bottom club Leigh for the rest of the season. I’m with you Mr Beaumont why the hell did he say NO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cunningham , as I put earlier , his decision , which he is fully entitled to make , hope it pays off and he gets more time in a Giants shirt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Frightful Posted July 10, 2021 Share Posted July 10, 2021 This arrangement seems all rather odd to me. A club seemingly resigned to it's fate "allowing" some of it's players to go on loan to another team struggling in the lower half of SL. And in other news, Ken Davy is still temporary SL Chairman.

meast Posted July 10, 2021 Share Posted July 10, 2021 Possibly a better deal for Huddersfield than Leigh? We shall see, they both bring experience and a bit of pace, and grunt to our depleted ranks.

LeytherRob Posted July 10, 2021 Share Posted July 10, 2021 Leigh are freeing up quota spots some additional overseas incoming players since there is seemingly no one available. It should have originally been a 2 for 2 swap including jamea cunnigham but he seems to have pulled out late. I can't say I blame Beaumont for being disappointed about that.

So i guess the overseas players they are bringing in are unattached at the moment and the question is, if they have any sort of ability why are club less?

Simple, the quality and numbers of pro, semi pro players in Aus is far far in excess what we can call on over here. But one phrase I have used for years and it still applies to 99% of antipodeans that arrive on these shores is that they are surplus to the requirements of NRL clubs, and they still need to put a crust on the table.

On the one hand, fair play to him for wanting to stay at the Giants and try and change Watto's mind and get into the side, but on the other hand, if he's wanting first team rugby and will get it at Leigh, then why wouldn't he? Maybe there's other issues? As for them both being average, maybe Watto feels he or the Giants can get the best out of them?

Not criticising the staff or environment , just the situation and circumstances , doubtful Leigh have had the numbers to put together a coherent week of training since the start of the season after losing over a third of the squad to injury in the first couple of friendlies I wish them well unless they are playing against Leigh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know we're a relatively small sport and being able to appoint a Chairman who isn't linked to a particular club is difficult but while we have a RFL Chairman, albeit temporary, who is also Chairman of a competing club, then there will be suspicion by some people that a vested interest exists.

DimmestStar Posted July 11, 2021 Share Posted July 11, 2021 Well done to Leigh for making an effort and not just simply accepting their fate. We'll see how the 2 overseas players go but there's not much to lose. Tony Smith decided not to keep Peteru at Hull KR saying he had been OK but Rovers wanted better than OK. I don't think he'll improve Huddersfield much if at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
