| Quote rubber duckie="rubber duckie"Evans got grief like Hughes.
In fact all the backs and covering backs got it, because the pack was pants.
I've little doubt Evans can provide the 3/4 cover Price is wanting and cover fb to allow Ratchford to cover any hb needs. He is better than 2016.'"
Hughes got grief because he stunk the place out in 2017. It's not like he is fantastic now. He's OK as a defensive 2nd rower - that's it. He could still be easily improved on.
Rhys had not been good enough for a few seasons. In fact he wasn't first pick at Leigh and only got 12 starts.
The idea of a cover player is that they can slot into a side to replace an injured player without a noticeable deleterious effect on the potency of the side. (See Mitch Brown). Rhys would be a step back and I suspect the motivation is more from pity than RL recruitment strategy.

| We have three centres and Currie can cover, so I'd expect some possible wing cover to be brought in at some stage. Rhys isn't what were looking for in that department, so it would be a no from me.

Not according to Price.
He wants a back, to replace Mitch Brown....Evans is of that level.
Can play centre, wing and fullback.

| He's too slow to play wing, and I cannot recall him playing fullback. He's also has had too many injuries. Still a no from me.

He's an international at fullback... and when fit was the quickest player at Warrington.

| Lol he was the fastest of a slow bunch n I think lineman would beat him over the fill length of the pitch.
He took the contract knowing the possibilities he was happy to take the money on the assumption they would get promoted clause or not he was also naive to think that should they not get promoted then being able to finance the side under their current contract terms.
He was not good enough to stake a claim on a championship side and were talking about bringing him back is laughable even on reduced wages it would be a waste

He was first pick for Leigh, the 12 starts were because we signed a crock - didn't think he'd played that many. From which I believe he may be looking for an insurance payout due to a career ending injury
And if a business loses money in any industry surely it has no option but to introduce cutbacks, in this case offering reduced salaries or severance pay, this being accepted by the majority of players

| That's why you have contracts. Leigh made a commitment to Rhys for a salary for 3 years.
