LEIGH'S REPUTATION AIDING RECRUITMENT

Chester switched clubs in May, having played his part in Leigh's climb out of the Championship in 2022 and subsequent achievements as a Super League club (Challenge Cup final glory in 2023 and playoff appearances that year and in 2024, when Adrian Lam's side reached the semi-finals).
