They did yhus to Darren afleary and other clubs have done it. Give him a sweetener payoff to terminate his contract, and often get somone else in, enough is enough he is crocked.'"
Would like to see Stevie stay as he's a great player, Lolohea, Ablett and Crosby on the other hand |

If the club put minimum fitness requirements in place there'd be a few who could be 'performance managed' out of the club. I'd rather focus on getting rid of them than on one of our few quality players with injury problems. The club may have to look at some form of contract based on appearances for Ward once his current one expires, but even more likely is just to offer him one year at a time.

I understand Carl Ablett may be forced to retire following complications with his latest operation. If true, he has been very unfortunate! An infection and blood clot almost meant worse consequences.
I believe under medical protocols you can’t take the field whilst on blood thinning medication. But I’m sure that’s the least of his worries.

Been told the same. Gutting way to go out for him if true, but we can request an exemption on the cap as he hasn’t played this season. |

He’s just actually sold up house as well, planning some changes. |

Sad news that for Carl. Let's hope it gets sorted for his long term health. Been a really good servant for Leeds.

Wasn't he planning to move to Aus before Kev convinced him not to retire? I'd imagine that move maybe back on if he can't play anymore. |

I thought part of his move was to play semi pro when he got to Aus.
Good luck to him - he has made a huge contribution to the success of the club during the glory years |

Very sad way to end if this news about Carl Ablett is correct, made some big contributions in some big games, particularly when he played at centre after senior retired.
Don't know him personally but a mate of mine who i only see couple of times a year does, understand he has been training as a plumber for some time, last winter he stayed in aus with Joel moon and his family. Moon family business is in building trade.
If he is heading down under wish him and family all the best

Ablett has been a great player over the years & imo very under-rated especially at centre.
Its never nice to be forced into retirement but the signs have been there for 18mths his body just wasnt up to it.
Good luck down under if he is to re-visit that option.
