Platty and Sarsfield have both left the club. They are both training without clubs at the moment.

It doesn't matter who own/runs the club, the anouncement of who is leaving the club is always hidden under the carpet.

It's still normally mentioned somewhere though even if it's just tagged onto the end of another press release. I've not seen it mentioned anywhere only in rumours.
Be a shame to let Sarsfield go, could be a good player just been unlucky with injuries. Platt was playing well too before his injury. But with Pala brought in and Maitua able to play centre I can see us letting either Platt or Pala go, though I'd feel a bit sorry for Pala as he never really got a chance. Still have to pick the best we can.

Would be nice to know for sure if Platt, Sarsfield and Pala have left. The club haven't announced anything yet. When we signed Pala DB stated that it was to cover for Platt's 'injury' and that when he was fit we'd have good competition for that position. I'm sure the squad numbers will be out soon (before the shirt is out surely) and we'll know definitely then.

GKR most fans already knew Platt has left the Club ,I've been told Sarsfield has been released from his contract,and Pala is joining Tolouse, I said a couple of weeks ago that some players would have to leave, but now the SC has been made bigger then maybe we might sign another player,maybe a centre or a winger.Although Platt, Pala,and Sarsy were decent players ,we must progress and Derek wants SL class players that obvious,and for me these 3 were not that.

Out of interest, who told you Sarsfield had been released from his contract and Pala was joining Toulouse.

I heard a rumour about Pala, but nothing else really as I haven't seen a press release or official comment form the club. Only speculation at this stage in the press.

I think contracts normally run to 30 November? If so, maybe nothing can be announced until after that date. Mind you, most of our squad were awarded extended contracts beyond November 2015. In that case, surely nothing could be announced until any such players had negotiated a release from their contract, or have fixed up an alternative one elsewhere?

As for suggestions that there could still be salary cap issues, didn't our owner announce, that there are no longer any such issues, with the increase in the SC upper limit?

I was told about Platt and Pala by an ex Leigh player ,who is still close to the Club,and the news about Sarsy was told to me by someone who knows him,he told me about Sarsy the same time he mentioned Haggs leaving.

Permanently, or on a 12 month loan?

Shame that - I thought he was highly promising. However, I can't see us guaranteeing him the opportunities, in the near future.
