I know that Karl Pratt had two years left on his contract when Leeds let him go and lost a tribunal at the RFL in to trying to get a transfer fee.

However

As for Pratt, Powell is reluctant to comment on his release, although he supported remarks made by Gary Hethertington on Thursday.

"Karl has been at the club four years and his level of commitment is way below the standard required," said the the Rhinos chief executive.

"Unless he changes his attitude and habits he will struggle wherever he plays."

What I don't know is whether Leeds paid out the remaining contract.

I agree they wouldn't have risked him in 'formal' sessions, but he'll have still be getting well prepped for the season. His immediate inclusion in the matchday 17 is an obvious giveaway.

he will have been training with Cronulla, probably not in team runs which is more likely to what Maloney was alluding to, but fitness etc.. then yes, i'm personally pretty sure on that. but, as like the fee paid to Leeds, we will never get a factual response on the matter, no point arguing it anymore. Lets move on.

Nobody on here knows either way - pointless d1ck measuring

If the accounts are a fair representation of what has happened the transfer fee will be shown as other income and should e visible - this is Leeds CA&F so its unlikely and it will be July 2018 before the accounts will be out by then this will long forgotten.

How many training sessions did Parcell have before he trotted out with the team - same can be said of Ali aSegyaro himself when Leeds signed them - that is what happens with new signings they don't wait weeks until they get used to the patterns they throw them straight in.

I think that it's only on here & only for a few posters that this saga has been a distraction once we replaced him with Parcell.

I'll always remember the fact he dragged us through the playoffs kicking and screaming last year.

Exactly the calibre of player we needed, just a shame he decided to do what he did (though Eastwood was worse IMO) but I'll be thankful for what he did when we needed it the most.

I think we'll leave this thread here, its had a good run.
