Its rumoured next years shirts will see Leigh sponsored by 'Veet' and featuring in TV ads.

Veet spokesman, Guy Rilla, said '' We came close to sponsoring Ian to feature in our advertising in 2003, our agents have been in negotiation with him at his parents home in Sydney recently and the deal is now signed''

Ian's back will feature in a new 20 second ad in the new year, with the slogan ' It'll be all reet with veet'

I give it till midnight before one of the Chemical Mutants come up with a joke about 'irritating t**ts'.

Are you sure Guy is still with the company????????????
