Apparently it was in yesterday's Leigh reporter that they are trying to get Duffy and possibly Maden back to Leigh???

keith read this it was on the haven site maybe 2 months ago
Duffy signs
Whitehaven have announced the latest in a string of signings for next season. This time it is scrum half John Duffy who has signed a new two year contract
Rob Jackson signs
The third signing in the space of a few days was announced today.
Centre Rob Jackson has committed himself to the Whitehaven club for the next two years.
Steve Maden
Steve Maden, the Whitehaven winger, has signed a one year extension to his contract at the Recreation Ground and says, "This club is going places."

Nowt to stop them trying but both Duffy and Madden love it up here and have said this is the best club they have been at.  Nothing is too much trouble to the bod, they dont have to chase wages they are there on time evrytime and the fans are superb.  Their words.

The article states, "The Club (leigh) is being linked with a bid to try to persuiade former half-back John Duffy to return to the club from Whitehaven, the club he played for with some considerable success last season".    Surely if they haven't been in touch with Haven then they would be in breach of RFL rules about tapping players up, champ?    We all know contracts are not worth the paper they are written on in RL.   It is only Leigh fans speculation about Maden though.

Doesnt say who the information comes from Keith. Rumours rumours and more rumours.  Facts are they are both signed to Haven for another season at least.

Leigh Centurions' overseas recruitment continued with the signing of Sydney Bulls captain Nathan DeBartolo.

And with 22-year-old Fijian Mailangi Styles joining the club late last week from NRL club, Manly Sea Eagles, the recruitment is stepping up apace.
Plus the club is being linked with a bid to try and persuade former half back John Duffy to return to the club from Whitehaven

Taken from the Leigh reporter this week.  Not sure what we would do if this happend.  He isn't a world beater but their aint many scrum halves with his experience available.  Especially withthe quote spot gone.
