Leeds v Leigh
Today, 3pm
AFTER seeing his talents "wasted" in Australia by legendary coach Wayne Bennett, England centre Oliver Gildart is fired-up to get his career back on track with Leigh.
He debuts for the high-flying Leopards against Leeds at Headingley this afternoon after a whirlwind few days.
Ex-Wigan star Gildart, 26, beat the transfer deadline to join from NRL outfit the Dolphins on a short-team deal until the end of the season.
It ends a difficult couple of years Down Under where he played for Wests Tigers, Sydney Roosters and for Bennett's new boys.
Gildart has already signed a three-year deal from 2024 with Hull KR who Leigh will be facing in Saturday's Challenge Cup final.
He is ineligible to play at Wembley but insisted: "I don't think I'd have played even if I could. I've a lot of respect for KR. It wouldn't have been the right thing to do.
