Terry I have never placed a bet in my life, but as its for charity I will take you on.
So that's Charlie, littlerich and me.
I suggest you nominate someone to collect the money now to distribute it at the end of the season.
Points deduction makes the bet void, in my humble opinion.
Any one else?

John with due respect this was an offer for Charlie alone,I'm surprised at you they say never bet against your own team, have you no faith in Fax?I'm tired of people like Charlie keep telling us how Superior Leigh are so I gave him the put up or shut up offer.He keeps telling me what a sporting clown he is and I really fancy Fax to come good next year regardless of Leighs predicament on if they get a points deduction.
I see Charlie has accepted my bet and I stand by it,but I didn't expect non believers like your good self and the wannabe Columbo Littlerich to do a doubting Thomas and want to back Leigh,you will be wearing a red nose next.
I back RM has faith in his ability and know Leigh are not special we have shown that recently,be a man not a mouse back Fax with me.

I think with a 6 point handicap would have been fairer.

Points deduction should not void the bet imo.

If they do get a points deduction it should be a big one! Didn't Melbourne get hammered when they did it?

Enough points to finish bottom wasnt it and stripped of their titles. Its impossible for Leigh to break the cap though as with Chase the RFL are refusing to register him as it takes Leigh well over the cap. They could go down the route of playing Chase or any other players though buts its unlikely the players would go for it as if they break their leg or pick up a bad injury their insurance would be null and void.

It does explain why Leigh are looking to offload players though and their fans do not want to believe that the likes of Ridyard have been offered around other teams.

GFB- where are you getting your information from that the RFL are refusing to register chase ?.

Re: Players Leaving Fax : Tue Oct 20, 2015 6:51 pm  

If they do break the salary lcap the points deduction won't come in effect until the season after will it?

Terry I know it was only intended for Ian it was just a bit of banter.
I do back Fax and Richard Marshall but I think it's a great ask to finish above Leigh. Time will tell and I sincerely wish you to win your bet.
Charlie's chosen charity will be the "redundant circus entertainers" give us an insight into yours?

I agree Faxhali I would also like to know where GFB has got his info about the RFL refusing to register Rangi, I'm sure most Leythers would like to know if this is true.

Re: Players Leaving Fax : Tue Oct 20, 2015 8:20 pm  

It was mentioned in the RL press 2 weeks ago that the RFL had the option to refuse to register players knowing that the wages they were on would breach the cap, whether they do that or not is in their hands.

On a side point, Paul Rowley stated that Leigh were a busted side by the time the 8's started, injuries had taken there toll and when the season ended 9 would be going under the knife!!
Leigh had one of the largest squads last season but are reported to be looking to release players to sign Chase.
How will that work out over next year injury wise with a smaller squad if the same happens, especially to the star player.

Lots of hand, elbow and knee injuries was it ?. Self inflicted I reckon .
