From Dave Woods Twitter account - THIS


Listening to that it sounds he did an interview pre match with Dave Woods (the one you provided a link to) and then carried it on after the match (the one I and others heard)so clearly happy to chat about why he left despite what he said when he told Total RL he was leaving Leigh.

As I haven't heard a peep about why Rowley quit from the club it seemed very strange for Rowley to say that
“The club has since commented quite a lot further, so I guess this is just a little bit from me, which is inevitable"

So has ANYONE heard the club comment any further about this as I've not seen anything and in fairness considering the bombshell that it must have caused losing the head coach so near to the start of the season the club seem quite reserved?

Having Gareth Walker on hand (the Total RL journalist)as well whilst understandable (as Gareth will no doubt have been covering the match)has also something not all together right about it.

Interesting Audio. By all accounts DB saved the club a few years ago and kept Rowley in a job and allowed him to develop, so jumping ship at such a key time seems pretty irresponsible and not exactly loyal. But maybe more will come out in the wash soon.

I think I'm on beaumonts side here! Think Rowley has thrown he's toys out the pram for some reason! We move on think a new coach could take us to the new level! I'd give up 20 points a week to grind the important wins out and get to super league

Like Atomic, Rowley is starting to sound a bit high-maintenance, "my wife is proud of me" was a highlight. I can't imagine any other coach saying such a thing. Interestingly, DB assembles one of the most high-profile squads ever at Leigh and Rowley quits!

"I want to keep my integrity intact. I'm a man of morals and beliefs and there are certain aspects that I wasn't in agreement with"
You got to applaud him for saying that, if he doesn't think something lies right then he has done the decent thing. Whether this could be construed as jumping ship is another matter though. its going to be an interesting couple of weeks at Leigh and i wonder if the RFL will investigate Rowley's comments?.
It would be good to see leigh in super league as i do miss the banter between Wigan/Leigh fans........but at what cost?

When did he first start to believe, the belief in that belief? Thing is, has he jeopardised his employment potential now. Who wants a coach that quits when you're given such a good squad to succeed with? With the investment made by DB, Super League is clearly his desired outcome and if he doesn't attain that goal, what is the alternative, he may even decide to pull out his investment. I think it's Super League or back to square one (not bust) this year.
