A Round up of tonights meeting. : Thu Oct 30, 2014 11:06 pm  

Three signings
Ben Treynolds a halfback/fullback from Cas
Richard Beaumont a prop from StHelens
Curtis Johnson a winger from North Sydney Bears - subject to RFL and Border Agency Clearance.

A New launch by LISA to raise membership in order to sign players Richard Beaumont being the latest.
The BOM have pledged to work in conjunction with LISA, and are in talks with them to give LISA members more club benefits
a) All future club fans forums will be open to LISA members exclusively.
b) A regular members draw to
1 - have access to part of a training session
2 - have access to a full post and pre game analysis by PR and his staff
3 - Members draw to accompany The Directors to an away fixture and be given all the privileges of a director on match days.
4 - Draw for home games for LISA members to upgrade their matchday package to The Premium Club.
(there were possibly more if so please excuse me I didn't hear them).

LISA gave special statuette awards to Paul Rowley and Neil Jukes for a great season.

Again apologise if i've missed anything im sure someone will remind me and inform you.

Curtis Johnson looks an excellent prospect both in attack and defence. 6 foot 3 15 stone winger. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PeNF2UXmxpU Like the look of the other 2. All young players eager to prove themselves. Best news is hearing contract extension of Ryan Brierley. Well done Leigh. I think Leigh will win the league again and gain promotion in the million pound game.

Knew there was something else - Derek B (in his own imitable way ) confirmed that Leigh Centurions had 'fought off' advances for Ryan Brierley from two SL clubs over the last 24 hours and Ryan was happy not only to stay at Leigh but to be in negotiations for a contract extension.

So the ever illusive very big, very fast winger
A very big SL quality prop who is coming into his best years
And a great utility back who is only 20 years old and tipped for great things
AND
We are keeping hold of one of my favorite players despite SL moves for him.
Seems like a good day to be a Leyther

SH obviously being scrum half, and not St Helens?

What a great audition that 10 minute clip was. Some of them look speeded up! Positively salivating at the prospect of seeing him in the flesh. Top signing and welcome aboard

No tampering with the video speeds by me, all taken off youTUBE North Sydney Bears highlights and Curtis's own showreel clips on there.

Curtis Johnson looks very good on that video, going to be giving Rowley some selection headaches & challenging Kay & Higson for a place. Good to now get cover at half back, where we were slightly lacking last season when Riddy was out injured. Good to get a quality forward in as well to replace some of those we've let go. Was a very good meeting.

Earlier last season we played Hornets away and a few of us remarked on how good Richard Beaumont was' as he was impressive until he got sin binned with a Leigh player.

The match is on Centurion TV too of course.
