No I don't, so stop being so superior and answer my question. Who the hell do you think you are?

I don't either, what's the deal? am I missing something.

You never stop stirring the pot do you. Watkins has received in general a similar amount of sympathy too the two players you mention. That said there is one crucial difference that you've missed in your latest attempt to be outraged on behalf of the Rhinos. Manfredi and Johnstone are both youngish players who are yet to hit their true potential, Watkins has had a brilliant career that has unfortunately ended in a way that he'd rather it hadn't but he still has a sack full of medals and a full career behind him so lets not get too precious.

Surely even you can see the difference and thus its obvious why the two you mention probably got a tad more sympathy

You need to take another break you really do.

There you have it shifty fwiw.

Maybe he’d be a good fit for Salford, its his hometown club?

Home town? He went Stretford High didn't he which last time I checked was in Trafford? That aside, he's;

A) Finished at a decent level from what I've seen this season.
B) Wouldn't be asking for peanuts.

So basically you're looking for a club with money who isn't arsed about getting value for money. If he gets a gig at all I'd put my hat on Toronto.

I genuinely don't think we could afford him but i could be wrong. Widdop will take up the second Marquee spot so if Watkins will only move for a marquee wage i doubt we could fit his wage in the salary cap. But as Luther Burrell won't count on the cap next season aswell as this year, we could possibly use Goodwin and Atkins wage on him?

He could always get his wife/partner to work in the club shop, it used to be really well paid
I dont think that counts on the cap

Ottawa? New York? One of those would be my guess

He’s from Gorton isn’t he?

He was excellent in the back row yesterday, it could well be his best position from here on in.
