Cronk doesn’t think that it’s a conflict of interest for Rorters, Storm, and Fox Sports, so why not add Sharks to the list?
The only way they could have handled it better is let him see out the year but even that I think wouldn’t be a good idea. Letting someone go is never nice.
Exactly there's rarely a good way that sees everyone happy. Unless you're letting someone go who didn't really wanna be there they're gonna be a bit peeved. Just rip the bandaid off and let the natural healing process begin.

He has come from a club where their captain suffered the same fate and pulled the pin. Just think he is being realistic.
Friend and corner...so yeah he understands the reality of a bloke in this situation.
The problem here is there is no way wade doesnt get another knock during the 1st half of the year and they will treat it like he has been KOd regardless of how bad it actually was.
The speed and intensity of the game on Super League is nowhere near NRL, the volume of concussions (or players failing concussion tests at least) is nowhere near NRL, the media focus in general, but certainly on players with repeated concussion is nowhere near NRL…. And if the truth be told, I don’t think the players are really honestly that worried about it, they’re being bullied into retiring by the media - Wade will go off to France to play, as he likely won’t have the luxury of a guaranteed post-career pay packet like Cordner and Friend will have from the Roosters and Uncle Nick that actually make it more finically viable to retire and stay with the Roosters than say go over to France with Catalans for a couple of years.
Nah what I’m suggesting is this will be his last season for the Sharks regardless. If he’s lucky enough to get through the season he’ll play on in France….if not he’ll have a nice extended holiday over there. He’s a smart enough fella to not risk his life after footy playing too long. Best mates with Cordner too. Will be a sad moment if he does get his head in the wrong place this year.
