Re: OUT 2020 | Kallum Watkins - Released : Wed Jun 05, 2019 5:33 am  
So many players have lost market value (or gained none) at Leeds in recent years, despite our facilities etc.

We’re also missing lots of targets. Maybe some of this is agent-fuelled because everyone knows we’re keen for new players.

It will be good to see the back of this season but we’re still 3-4 good players short of taking on 2030 with more confidence. And I mean Leuluai good nor Achurch good.

His last game for Leeds today apparently. So where's he off?

Good luck Kallum. You don't need or deserve this.

Glad to see he won't be lining up against us - or indeed going to Union. Hopefully he can still leave on a high.

Good choice of club Kallum.no real pressure as the Gold Coast is really seen as the basement fodder of the NRL and a great place to spend a few years whilst earning decent coin. Good luck you have been a great servant to Leeds.

I really am rhinoms and haven't stolen his Avatar!

Hmmmm im torn with this one.
This season has highlighted for me that reserve grade was/is needed KW has struggled for fitness until last 2/3 games.
A reserve grade would have enabled us to bring him back with less pressure & i also think giving hkm the caotaincy was a mistake.
On the flip side we are now releasing one of our best players whilst we are in a relegatiin fight & keeping dross like Ferres Ablett etc another master strike by our DOR.
There best be some quality lined up because KW finally has a much better grasp of that right edge BR defensively.
I'll also add if we can force out Watkins then we should be throwing Ferres & co in the nearest skip.
Gotcha

Good god Mark, I understand the frustration, we all have it mate, but come on think about it.

Watkins wasn’t just released mid year. You have to have a willing other club to take the player, otherwise you are simply adding to your cap. In Watkins we have that, it was a simple business decision. Who is going to take on poop like Ferres? An injured finished Ablett? There not, so we are stuck with them. Pay them up now, and all we do is effect the cap for others to come in mid season.

Yes we want rid, but can’t just click our fingers. Look at Goulding, Parcell, Cuthbertson, all season available, and nobody come in for them, until now it seems Hull KR want Parcell.

Your job is to say to yourself on a job interview does the hiring manager likes me or not. If you aren't a particular manager's cup of tea, you haven't failed -- you've dodged a bullet.
