Not at all - it is about how you treat employees regardless of ability all employees should be treated with dignity. As the saying be kind on the way up because you are sure to meet them on the way down

Could the same not be said about employees attitude towards their employer? If, as it appears, Burgess has thrown his toys out of the pram should the club treat him in the same way as a player who did not?

I'd heard that Mcdermott always finds someone that he doesnt get on with( a stool pidgeon)and makes it very hard for them and it looks like Burgess is it.This was from a players agent.
Also told that its Big Earl thats already signed for next year,but my source for this part could have got him mixed up with Griffin

Might be wrong but couldn't see erol wanting to join us

It gets worse....I'm hardly instilled with confidence with recent decisions at the club, starting with the actual recruitment of Cross at the expense of Ambler in the first place. No effective plan to cover for the known long term absentee at the top of his game and the other coming to the end of his more effective days.

Persistence in playing yesterday's men.

This season has been a huge disappointment so far.

McDermot as coach. Ughh ! Kirke,Bailey and Hauraki in favour......Burgess, Ambler, Amor out on loan. Singleton and Clarkson languishing in the reseves. Great

The club is creaking to the finishing line for 2011 ...the halcyon [imid naughty[/i period is well and truly over

Burgess has signed for Souths,and Griffin has signed for the Rhinos.

Not blown away with the news

Sorry mate just letting you know.

Same here.

To the Giants Griffin is just another squad player and to Leeds he’ll probably become one of our main prop forwards in years to come. It’s the most miserable time I’ve endured as a Rhinos fan. Even Dean Lance was more tolerable than this!

I am sure I must have endured worse times but it all feels a bit flat at the moment.

how good is this news about Griffin? Why would he move from Huddersfield who appear to be on the up and up. Are they getting rid to bring someone better in? If so we should be competing to sign that guy, not Griffin,good solid steady player that he is.

Money.

cannot see anything on the Giants board about this done deal with Leeds??

My opinion reflects most who have posted on here;

Burgess – a little surprised, he was showing some good form and even though he wants to head down-under I would have thought that we’d keep him on until at least the end of the season. Makes me think we’re clearing cap space for someone.

Cross – underwhelmed when he signed, underwhelmed when I saw him play and not really bothered to see him go.
