Quote: Grimmy "If you're going to pay him his full contract then you might as well count it and try to get something out of him to be fair. If you're trying to pay him less then there is negotiating to do, in which he holds the cards. Plus potentially the accusation of not supporting his return to work if we are trying to get him off the books rather than get him back on the pitch.'"
I can't help but think that there's more to this than money . Rads himself has said that this is impacting his quality of life outside of rugby, which has to be a massive worry for GB. It's all good other poster's saying "I wouldn't walk away from guaranteed money" etc, but the fact this might literally impact his ability to walk in a few years means there's more to it.
An agreement is just that too - one that both parties agree to so I can't see why there'd be any accusations.
There's probably a deal to be had there that's satisfactory to both GB and Wigan. It's just finding it & what impact that has on the cap.
