Paul Whatuira released early. Good luck to the bloke he's had some very tough times off the pitch over here and always gave 100% when playing for or representing the Giants.
Hope everything goes well for him back "down under" and he gets fixed up with a decent club and leaves all his trouble behind him.
Huddersfield Giants have allowed Kiwi International centre to return to Australia on compassionate grounds. The 28 year old star was off Contract at the end of the current season and was not looking to remain in England. In the Player's best interests, a mutually agreed release has been finalised.
Giants Managing Director Richard Thewlis commented:
"In the long term interest of the player he needs a break to get his leg right and recharge his batteries ahead of his next career move. We all hope that a good break will enable him return back to rugby league, at his best."
Paul Whatuira commented "I have really enjoyed my time at Huddersfield and the club has supported me and my family through some difficult times. I wish them every success in the future and am looking forward to a break and then to returning to action fully fit."

| I think this has been coming for a while but i would like to say a huge thanks to 'FATZ' for being part of the best Huddersfield team for generations, on his day he was a joy to watch and its a shame his personal problems got the better of him.
Come and visit us soon Fatz , i'm sure you will alwyas be made welcome.
Thank you and good luck Paul !!

| paul whatuira - very classy player ! great defence and footwork, brought over to replace the space left by chris nero and did a great job for us... when on top form was one of the best centres in super league!
thanks for the service phats and all the best back in oz
think we knew he was leaving this season anyway and we have cudjoe and lawrence to replace now.

| Quality player on his day, good luck for the future and i hope he gets a contract with an nrl club. shame this wasn't announced last night so we could give him a good send off but with him apparently being very quiet probably didn't want any fuss.
This will give us some space on the salary cap so hopefully we get a winger or prop in for rest of season.

| as an opposition player, always one that worried me, hope he gets himself all sorted out back home.
He was also my favorite kiwi international to watch during the haka. Fucking brilliant during that.

| Great player on his day and I wish him all the best. That first season he arrived he was fantastic and one of the best centres we have ever had at the giants. however due to his personal problems last season and this barring the odd performance he has been a shadow of that season. Sad to see him go and honestly do wish him well but from a playing perspective we needed a change for sure.
