Many of us already have mate

Weird how Jamie was whinging about having to play too many games in a season and then has a testimonial organised.

This shirt is available for pre-order (released late April) for £36.99 adult and £28.99 Junior. Available exclusively from www.rugbyleaguelegends.com So whats the deal with the Help For Heroes stuff? Is a percentage of the takings from the shirt/game going to them?

Who said hes having a match?

So let's hope the higher profiled player's testimonial doesn't detract from a real clubman's reward for 10 years (in the main comparatively low paid) loyalty.

Having (I presume) two testimonials running at the same club at the same time is a bit barking.

Peacock played 29 times V Leeds and that's 29 times more than JJB has.

I know what yer saying mate but surely you agree JP deserves the recognition of a testamonial.

Call me old fashioned but historically players giving 10 years loyalty to one club have deserved a Testimonial season.

Peacock is effectively getting a Leeds Testimonial on the back of 3 seasons. I say Leeds as it will be supported by his current team's supporters in far greater numbers than any other club's.

Basically I don't agree with a club running two Testimonials simultaneously unless (as in the case of Phil Cookson and Steve Pitchford) it's an joint testimonial.

Not my problem though so I'll shut up.

No

i wonder if they are awarding these type of testimonials as way of getting a bit extra and nothing to do with the salary cap also to keep them from going to the dark side for awhile.

Very nice shirt, a signed one will be in my collection and on display very soon
