Quote: kirkhall "Your certainly right, organisation is the Key and, who is that has been entrusted with the 'Key'? Ben Reynolds is the name ! I'm not a fan of Jack Owens however, Kieron please don't put Reynolds back at Stand Off you saw how Hutchison flourished when he had sole responsibility on Sunday. If you must play Reynolds, play him at Centre you never know, he might turn out like Matty Dawson who has been a revelation at Centre and Dawson's play with Bergal is really exciting to watch
I was referring to our defensive display , 2 games , just 3 try's conceded , it took Rochdale about 8 minutes to achieve that

Quote: charlie caroli "Was Reynolds injured.?Or was he doing a Ryan Bailey?Derek has stated a few players have refused to accept closure or their contracts,and some have been as ked to play on reduced terms.'"


Ben Reynolds is not costing the club a lot of money. In fact he is on a mere pittance, compared to some.

I dont understand why players are getting slated by the fans regarding contracts somebody at the club dished out big contracts at its backfired.

Like me i am sure they all have family , bills etc etc to pay, if they dont have a club to go to what do you expect them to do ??

I know what i would do if my employer did the same to me and it wouldnt be voluntary making myself unemployed.

I agree herald the players are just looking after themselves and who can blame them the way the club has treated the players last year and this year,its the people who gave them the contracts and agreed to sign them without doing their homework on how often a player is injured or there personality because looking at some of the lads this year there is no way u'd look to sign them on the money some of them were on this year with their history

Understand the players' point of view, however if we're comparing with typical employers, I'm sure a lot of companies would have you on at least a final written warning with an absence record like Evans' or Acton's

Yes they can. Not saying Leigh can, or should, given the nature of contract signed. But employers can discipline staff for poor attendance, and plenty do. So, while players are entitled to stick to their contract, I'm not going along with the argument of "How would you feel if your employer..." when it comes to Evans and Acton.

Sympathy does wear a little thin when one of the players, is currently missing from team selection after admitting at a recent RFL disciplinary deliberate use of an elbow on a fellow professional.

There’s a good chance that they aren’t absent from work like normal employees, they probably turn up for training or treatment as required by the club.

No idea if they have but Player’s contracts could/should have an appearance clause in them.

Tell me , what exactly are you trying to achieve by ' naming and shaming ' any particular player who most likely hasn't had a viable option to cancel his contract ?

Rhys has been injured , it's what happens when you play RL

I admit being constantly banned for poor discipline is a different matter , but injury isn't
