I was thinking the other day (I was due!) about wolfie's possibly downgraded contract and George being let go and it would have to be so sad, shocking, and stress inducing for players who really love the club.
George, who may not sport the stereotypical shape that other teams look for must be gutted (no pun intended).
Wolfie, who has had a pretty good season (despite his running in off the wing and diving for the line with his toes pointing towards the line...cue HM and KE) would also be just really upset to have to leave Manly.
Obviously there's the earning factor as well. In the end, probably the biggest factor! Family, mortgages, etc.
I would hope that their managers put in an extraordinary amount of effort finding third party contracts to help their cause. At least as much effort as a lot of managers put into the threats of leaving to union, other clubs, etc when it's contract renewal time for players in their prime.
However, I'm not sure George figures in tooveys plan so whether 3rd party payments would help or not I dunno.
Also, did I miss something? Seems to be some hyperbolic reactions to a comment. Lets all be nice Manly faithful! Certainly not the first food joke on here.
Finally, I really hope something can be sorted for the two of them. It must be a terrible thing to go through.
