Quote: Beverley red "I would not feel right taking players who jump ship. I like sport & sporting behaviour. Call it old fashioned but there are points of honour in ones way of conducting your life. I don't care if it is a short career like every person it is your choice to follow any career path, you don't play rugby to make money you play it because it is what you do, anything else is a bonus.'"
But sport is different to a typical job. Youngsters initially sign because they love playing rugby and want to progress, not caring about the money, but by the time they get to their mid to late 20's, and they may now have families to support & mortgages to pay, their priorities rightly change and they have a lot more things to consider than they did when they signed your first professional contract.
