[quote="BigTime":mpf6qnlj]Had a run out for Wests in the Cup I think. Maybe the commitment of playing for London too much for the salary on offer and prefers amateur and focus on real life job? Who knows.[/quote:mpf6qnlj] I think he works as a personal trainer & playing some Union. Seems to have turned out against Leeds as a one off. Not too many players have more than 50 Broncos tries to their name & wouldn't mind having him back despite the odd defensive lapse. Whether the club want him & can reach an agreement is the big unknown.

[quote="Victor":10ityj88]I understand that Macani took offence to criticism leveled at him at the end of last season. He refused to sign for the club under the current management.[/quote:10ityj88] From Eccles? When was that? Seems a real shame. A bit poor not to mark his leaving after he did a real shift for us in previous years.

Really he’s a Championship player though and if we had undertaken a normal level of recruitment you would have expected that his game time would have been limited so feels a little harsh as he did his best. I had grave doubts when he was signed from Skolars but after a few iffy games he settled at the level well and has a winners medal to show for it. Shame too that Hoyes, who was identified as a good young prospect, has not gone on this year as he’d probably have got game time on wing as well. Really the risk/reward for playing RL PT in the south where the salary isn’t that impressive is a real issue now. Some real hardy souls travelling down from Wales to play. Got admire their grit.

I made that school boy error as well a couple of years ago. I believe such luminaries as Kieron Dixon are still waiting for an ‘all the best’, Curran as well and Matt Davies has come and gone twice without the club mentioning it and then there was the classic 2022 season when we didn’t not just acknowledge players leaving but didn’t bother to mention they’d joined (although on reflection that probably was justified). It is, I believe, know as ‘the Broncos way’.

The whole part-time rugby league in the South issue is a tough one. It takes a certain kind of resilience for players to balance it all, especially when the pay doesn’t always reflect the effort.
