Quote: Zoo Zoo Boom "Chris - whether Austin's behaviour is appropriate or not - I personally think it should be kept behind closed doors it does suggest the club could handle these matters in a more professional manner. No doubt his new offer will be significantly lower the player will be disgruntled and his agent here SMTM, will be looking at ways to increase that. Craig and Gary seem to have a challenging relationship - a clash of egos?
If the rumours around Tetevano and Ward and the lack of proper insurance suggests the welfare of the players is a pretty low priority to the club especially the youngsters who the club don't/won't insure. This may well explain why Leeds can't attract the quality of player a club of this size should?
Could it be the golden generation had a loyalty to each other rather than the club - who despite all the money they made on the back of their success weren't prepared to pay them in line with other top players.
Danny McGuire despite everything he did for the club was told he wasn't wanted yet played a further two years at Hull KR.
Does this sound like a player centric club?'"
They're all assumptions though that are made to come to a conclusion.
The club has said they have looked after Tetevano and he himself has thanked them for their support, and funnily enough where did the rumour come from - Blake Austin.
What's the Ward rumour Ive not heard anything about insurance with Ward?
McGuire was offered a one year extension with a view to moving 'upstairs' afterwards, but wanted two and Hull KR offered him silly money so he went.
I'm sure Craig Harrison and GH do clash they both want what's best for their own interests, however I have heard say that there isn't a club in the country that look after the younger payers better than Leeds.
