Widdop!
Looks like he’s going to end up at Canberra or the NZ Warriors, what shocked me most about this article was his current wages! He’s on $800,000 a year, which equates to £434,000, how can any club in super league pay any player that sort of money, I’m assuming most British super league players are on something between £30,000 and £140,000, was Widdop worth it, what do other players around him feel about him receiving so much more than them, it’s astonishing!!
Another comment in this article which showed typical Aussie arrogance was the part where it said, he’s 31, but he’s had 2 years playing in Super League, so he’ll be very fresh if he returns to the NRL, what an insult, basically saying, he’d hardly have broken sweat in Super League, so he’ll not even seem like a 31 year old!! Such arrogance!!

Re: Widdop!
Let’s not mix facts and opinions. Below is the actual quote:
"After a couple of years he's probably fresh to some degree and I reckon you could get another one or two years out of him."
I cannot see the phrase “very fresh” in there but my eyes aren’t what they once were.
Such stupidity!!!

Re: Widdop!
It implies the same thing FFS!! are you actually trying to say it doesn't?? the main point about my post was the money angle, which i was genuinely shocked about, I see you made no comment about that, its my opinion fella, isn't that what forums are for, changing "fresh" to "very fresh", hardly changes the narrative of the quote!
Re: Widdop!
Very = extremely
Probably = in all likelihood
Therefore it implies two completely different things. What other teams spend on players doesn’t interest me. In fact, what we spend on players doesn’t interest me either.
You cannot start a sentence with “another comment in this article” and claim it’s your opinion. Your opinion started when you stated “what an insult”. So, you basically misquoted the article for reasons unknown.
FWIW, Gareth Widdop, in the games I’ve seen, has been a bit “Peter Matautia” by having one good game a month. Very inconsistent for a player of his calibre.

what I am implying in my commentary, is clearly implied in the article, are you trying to suggest they are NOT saying he’s only played Super League, which is nothing like playing NRL, so he will be fresh?? It’s obvious that’s what they are saying, if I said a man had been violently murdered, but an article stated he had merely just been plain old murdered, the man would still be fkn dead!!
Give it rest fella!!
