It does go to show the idea of loyalty isn't a factor at Panthers. Though I guess we already knew that.
There is loyality and loyality (if you get my drift)
The amount of money some clubs ae throwing round for blokes like Crighton, Burton etc is quite astounding.
It's an opportunity for Crighton in particular to set himself and his family up for life. Considering Crighton has come from such a poor background it's quite understandable.
Loyality went out of rugby league when played were allowed to play outside out their development areas in the 1970's.
Especially now in 2020.
I'd love to see Stephen stay. But I'd also hate to see the Lewis type situation some years ago, when all the cao was tied up in the wrong places.
The Josh Mansour situation I believe the club attempted to do the right thing by him. Giving the 30 year old winger a heads up that father time is catching up fast.
These kids are loyal to their teammates and their families.
The idea of one club players is increasing rare, a myth held unto by supporters and members.
