I have no sympathy with Leigh and am 100% on the players side. Leigh offered the players the contracts, in which there was no promotion clause or top 4 finish clause. The players will have mortgages and bills to pay, why should they give up their contract? It’s a short career.
Ah, at last, someone who has seen the players' contracts!
Whilst I tend to agree that the contracts must be met by the employer, I am left wondering whether there is a clause relating to 'success'. (i.e. a top four finish, and participation in the play-offs) After all, a surprising number of players do seem to have accepted the 'deal' offered by the club, to terminate their contracts.
