Welcome back Oli. Will give us some power in the front row along with Sam Barlow

????

Well must admit I thought the same Michael.



Hope it is true though.

As do I.



But where is this news from?

Well from the look of the responses on the LoveRL site it may appear that Barlow hasnt signed as yet never mind Wilkes!

I beleive the club are issuing a press release confirming this pm.

they are also quoting a false Barlow twitter name so we will see

The Trinity "Clearance Sale" begins in earnest!!



A bit more grunt added to the pack if true. How old is he now, as he seems to have been round for a long time!!

Trevor Hunt tweets Leigh confirm Sam Barlow and Olly Wilkes at club next season

Oli is 33 year old so no spring chicken but I am happy with this signing if true.

Apparently Sam has denied signing for anyone yet and will only decide after the world cup. I don't know how true this is but I am not sure why the club are trying to announce the signing of a player still involved in the championship play offs along with Leigh.

Well, he's kept himself fit, so we'll get a good couple of seasons out of him at least!!....and being a Leyther 'Old Boy', he knows 'the gaffer', so should have no trouble buying into the team ethos!!

Mind games?



I just hope the club have his signature already dried on a contract - 'cos we've had too many 'egg on face' moments [i"under previous administrations"[/i over the years.....don't want the new lot getting off on the wrong foot!!

Could be I suppose.
