Hopefully he's informed the RFL of his concerns, they must be pretty serious for him to resign.

So you are suggesting Rowley resigned due to his relationship with Beaumont?

Leigh got an opening day hammering from a side that isn't spending £3m a season on players, after previously boasting that they would go the entire season unbeaten. You couldn't make it up.

To be fair, Batley can be a decent side on their day. John Kear has shown time and again that he's able to get underdogs to punch above their weight

Leigh's tactics were naive on the mountainside cabbage patch at Mount Pleasant. Tried to play too much passing rugby going downhill, angles are too weird for players not used to it.

A) Because you are a top SL side and he can further his career with Leigh.
B) it was for the money
C) he couldn't get a gig elsewhere

My money is on B or C

I'm afraid you just did.

Great result for Batley though.
