I know that in one way he will be sad to leave Hull after giving many years of valuable service to them but he is excited by the challenge at Leigh Centurions and ready to write a new chapter into his illustrious playing career.Whiting was named Super Leagues young player of the year in 2005 and scored a try in Hulls shock Challenge Cup final win over Leeds. He was also in the Hull team that reached the 2006 Super League Grand Final.Whiting said: I knew at some point it would be time to say goodbye.The opportunity has presented itself at Leigh where I am really enjoying playing and it is an exciting time to be around the club so it is the right time for me and the club.We have a great squad at Leigh and a chance to go up into Super League, which is exciting and something I want to be part of. Whiting joined Leigh on loan earlier this year Hull coach Lee Radford said: Rich has been a fantastic servant to the club since day one and his utility value has been important over the many years he has played for us.Hes done the same job in whichever position hes been asked to play, both in the build-up to matches and switching during games.We are at a point where we couldnt guarantee Rich regular footy and he is at the stage in his career where that is important, he needs to be playing week in-week out.Leigh have presented him with the opportunity to have that both this season and beyond, so the call was a no-brainer for him.
