that sums it up. I feel very sorry for the sharks, to have 3 guys of the calibre of Snowden, Douglas and Ferguson leave is sad, but the fact that they left for reasons other the money is even sadder.
Knights fans know this feeling, in 2009 we tried to sign a young warriors prop named Leesan Ah Mau, a rookie with no first grade experience, we offered him the world, his manager was happy but the bloke just didn't want to come to the knights, he instead chose to go to the cowboys a team that had finished 5 positions below us on the table. It's not a good feeling and I sympathise with sharks fans but players are normal people too. I've been a knights fan since I was in primary school, but before the events of this year if I were a player I'd be very reluctant to sign with them.
At the end of the day we all compete to win, unfortunately for you guys results just aren't on the board and nothing looks like changing for the better, until there is a shift players will looks elsewhere, it's just the way it is
