Message: [QUOTE="Coxy, post: 2190911, member: 1764"] I don't disagree with much of what you said broncospwn. In saying that, it gets up my nose when players leave only because they're talking about wanting more money when they're on (as far as I know) decent enough coin already. I know in the real world we'd take a $5000 pay rise, because say $55000 compared to $60000 a year makes a difference for your average person. But we're talking guys who are offered say $350000 wanting to leave to get $370000....that's ridiculous. If there are other motivations - eg, not getting along with coaching staff, players, or having problems in the living environment etc, I can understand. But leaving a club where you've been perfectly happy, which has provided for you, developed you, and possibly even got you into rep teams for a relatively insignificant increase is insulting. In the case of Hunt, it's not that. I can understand his reasons for feeling a bit disillusioned with Brisbane. He copped a lot of criticism after his toilet shenanigans, and despite the fact he deserved it, he feels hard done by. Fair enough. Soft, but he's only 21, he's still just a kid, probably still feels like the victim when he's busted for something. What I can't cop is the apparent greediness of what he's asking for. He's not just priced himself out of the Broncos, he's priced himself out of rugby league. If he's set on getting that much money it won't happen in Australia, unless one of the Super 14 teams take him. And if they do, I hope it's not the Reds, because that defeats the other excuse that he feels "let down" by the people of Brisbane. So no, I can't cop the way this shit is going with K. [/QUOTE]
