Gavin Marguerite has left Toulouse. He scored 50 tries in 70 games for Olympique. He would do a good job in the championship and give us size and pace in the centre, especially next to Armitage.
Possibly one of Wardys final signings?

Ioane confirmed as a Leigh signing.

I read on a French website that he had signed for Saint Esteve XIII Catalans, Catalans' feeder team. Not sure if that's been officially confirmed though.

Cant say I am that bothered about Ioane going. Been a good player for us but not the end of the world. Leigh going for it, not sure how it will work out for them

Mark Ioane fell out of favor last season.It is probably time for him to move on. He might find it a bit different living up there.
I just hope for his sake the money does not run out at Leigh before the end of the season. As it did when they went for it previously !!!!

I think we have a decent squad. Good first 17, after that we are relying on youth and some inexperience which I hope does not cost us. We have the best coaching team in the division and that will count for alot. Lets hope the 3 signings to come are a couple of older heads/experirenced.

Don’t think we’ll get promotion in 2020. More likely 2021/22
Agree about ioane. Never used last season... time to go

Re: 2020 Squad : Sun Dec 01, 2019 6:09 pm  

Did Ioane have a couple of stinkers early season that I wasnt aware of or just a fall out?

The same way it always works out for Leigh - they'll either go bust, or get promoted then immediately relegated and then bust.

Not sure why you think we are "going for it" have you seen our signings so far?

Unless you lot know something us leigh fans don't?

the teams that seem to be spending are Toulouse, Featherstone & York.
