It's funny, the Raiders giving Leo 900k would be almost the exact same percentage of the cap as when they gave Tapine 500k. They'd be hoping the gamble pays off in the same way.
Easy to forget now but Tapine was actually garbage for them initially, we felt like we'd robbed them blind when we compared him to Barnett.
Thats a 2 way street and we all have to remember, as most of us were happy about it.... We just did the same thing to DSaf for the clubs benefit. It is a business and he only has a certain amount of quality years of employment he needs to do whats best for him. We all want him to stay but his current form hes a 600k FRF could he be better possibly, could be the next big name. But should we destroy our future cap position in the hope he improves to that level... IMO no.Oh well, take the money while you can cause it’s a short career, but also good riddance.
Loyalty in rugby league died a long time ago. It just grinds my gears because we were the ones that turned him into a first grader/representative player in the first place. If we never signed him he probably would’ve been on the tools while playing for the Mounties part time.
