Lebois unless I'm mistaken has to be delisted and rookies again.
Is that correct?
He's a two year rookie. Last I checked he had to be upgraded or delisted and rookied again.

I thought that too but rookie list rules change very frequently. Max rookie contract used to be two years.

I’m pretty sure that rookies can get a contract extension for a third year. After that it’s sling your hook, upgrade to the primary list or de-list and re-rookie.

However, there was the option of signing on for a 3rd year. But in order to do so, they had to be open to being picked up in the ND by all clubs. If he was not picked up then, you could automatically sign him for that 3rd year.
The rule was in place so that you could not have a gun rookie sitting on your rookie list for an extended period of time while other clubs could not get their hands on them.
Not sure if that rule has been 'relaxed' but there was basically a handshake agreement between clubs to not poach rookies going into their 3rd year.
In any event, i don't think he's shown anything to suggest other clubs would want to chase him.
hasn't shown enough to stay on the list IMHO. I'd much rather it were Sam Fisher instead.

Yep. I expected Rowe may get another year. Shows I have no idea if nothing else :

If a Club B&F results reflect a player’s ability to play their role and follow the match committee’s instructions, Sam Rowe would be justified in asking ‘What more can I do’ after finished 8th in the B&F in the most pressurized back line in the league.
