It's not at a level like in football, but it's definitely true to a fair extent. I get that it perhaps sounds a bit mercenary, but in reality, Kahu was far better served attempting to play out a season in North Queensland than languishing in Queensland Cup. All parties (us, Cowboys and Kahu) stood to gain if it worked out well. Obviously it didn't for a number of reasons, but it could have easily gone the other way and been a good result for all parties with Kahu getting a new contract. I do agree though that it was handled poorly by the Broncos in not explaining it properly at the time. I don't think it was necessarily all cloak and dagger or anything too sinister, but I do think the fans deserved to know what was happening with Kahu in a more transparent fashion than what took place. Hypothetically, if that had been the case, I think fans would have been on board with what they were attempting to do and it wouldn't have left such a bad taste in everyone's mouth when Kahu was sent back to us. I'm not saying it would have made it totally ok, but it certainly would have calmed some of the anger and distress amongst the fans. [/QUOTE]
