Maternity leave.

Leeds treated Garbutt like by all accounts. No wonder he was happy to get out.

The injury was cleared up by the operation which ended his season.

Unsurprising given the last coaches penchant for a "warrior mentality"

Players playing injured, bizarre use (or non use) of subs, Baffling team selections and a fondness for dropping players on a whim.

Really, which accounts are these?

His comments on that Hull news site were a bit ambigous and people tweeted their own translations and Mitch wasnt to pleased with the tweets

Highly unlikely we will ever know the truth, and it always has two sides anyway.

Spouting non specific stuff to the media is also very unhelpful.

I wish Mitch well but I no longer need to hear his views on Leeds, particularly as we have a new regime underway.

I think one thing we can take from this is that when Sinfield talks about Leeds as a club "doing things the right way" as he has done previously it will be difficult to take him seriously.

Again, what accounts are these? Genuine question.

Why? Other accounts say Garbutt had no appetite to dig in with the rest of squad when the brown & smelly stuff was hitting the fan. We can alk take what we want from the situation 2 sides to every story.

Only players who have a gripe with the club come out and say things that ain't 100% true, Leeds as a club do not disrespect players in public, and knowing some of the things that have happened in the past with players such as the full back now playing for Wigan the number of chances he had to put things right only shows that the reason why Garbutt has left Leeds is down to something he has done or not done. Only he knows what has happened. I was told there were players who had a poor attitude last season but I do not know if he was one of them. I think we all have an idea why Garbutt has left but maybe not right to discuss on here.

Who cares in all honesty? MG is a former player, all the best and move on.

Not really, you on the other hand...

I think Garbutt making his statement today instead of just saying happy to be at a great club etc is an indication of attitude . We missed him last season ,but hes left now and good luck to him .

Lots of different opinions on here about why he has left, but most fans are in agreement on one thing. When he was on the pitch he was our best prop and we need someone to replace that go forward.
