Alibi Albi, hmmm, I think a jealous small town club fan who has an axe to grind, maybe, as has been said, Twatts dad (apologies if I misspelt that)

If we got £150,000 for him then great business, talented but a risk.

weve been there, done that, and now we have learnt...

I hope you enjoy playing for Cas, maybe the whole village will turn up for your debut!

Watts has hit back in the press conference basically calling Radders a liar.

Hardly called him a liar.
Watts says he has no off field issues, but he's unlikely to say anything else.
Maybe Watts has a different view of what is expected of him 24/7.

..."if you don't abide by his (LR's) rules"........

The nervous touch of the hair when asked is telling.

His dad last night was claiming Watts never wanted to leave, now Watts is saying it was his idea. Fair play to the club, I think I'm starting to lean towards trusting their decision. Just wish he hadn't been sold to a top 4 rival... Could he not have fancied a stint in France instead?!

I have no sympathy for Watts and hes and idiot but he's pretty much said he's had no off field issues and said to Radford to say what they are if they exist. Thats calling him a liar in my book

Personally would believe LR's turn of events but Watts isn't bright enough just to keep his gob shut.

That's what struck me as well

Radders has increasingly shown recently that he won't be drawn into slanging matches. He's impressed me after a couple of controversial incidents this season could have sparked a cracking rant and he remained very tight lipped and showed great restraint.

This is an internal disciplinary matter and as such shouldn't be spoken about away from the club, Watt's is simply showing his immaturity, and the reason we have done the right thing.

He didn't actually say he didn't have any off field issues did he? Seemed to say radford believed he did and that's all that mattered.

radford and pearson wouldn't have sold one of their best players mid season for no reason

He'd be better served keeping his mouth shut. Every time he opens it he just makes the decision to offload him seem even more correct. He doesn't look like seeing the error of his ways anytime soon.

Had a chance to give it to Radders........But he daren't.

Exactly,

if you don't abide by your boss's rules??? interesting view point on employment that.

I suppose it boils down to what an individual feels is ok when not on work duty. Perhaps Watts feels his behaviour was acceptable in his eyes, but Radford perhaps didn't.

Still, your Boss wants one thing, you want another, the boss usually wins.

Player power is an interesting thing.
Probably saved him his job when they locked him out of the dressing rooms after that Widnes debacle.

Now the players haven't got any power.

Interesting thoughts.

Iron fist or velvet glove?
I'd be rolling with the former.
Ain't done us so bad the last couple of years innit.

Anyone who follows Watts on Twitter or Instagram can hazard a pretty good guess at some off field problems he has.

Some have already been hinted at on here.

Plus this sort of reaction from him is no surprise.

He recently had a spat with commentator Rod Studd on Twitter.

As in any sport certain players will have more power than others, Watts probably messed up at a time when, regardless of him being a good player, he was not that important.

He's caused problems, misses too many games and more than likely on a few quid. Seems a no brainer for LR and AP to shuffle him off and gain a few quid in the process.

Watts has gone to the worst place he could have if his off the field antics are as bad as believed

Either at Cas with all his mates on hand, or at Toronto with his mate Westernan.
Which is worse?!

It's like Meryl in [i'Sophie's Choice'.[/i
Heads or tails.
Boulevard or KC.
Being sent to Coventry or Letchworth Garden City.

I’m a bit gutted he’s left us but I heard from one of his team mates that he’s enjoys going on the pop too often so the club has probably done the right thing

I’m pretty much over it now though because I’m happy Matongo will get more game time this season and I’m over the moon that Carlos has signed an extension so happy days

What’s (geddit) surprised me is the speed of it all. Conspiracy Theorists apart, salary cap

this situation must have been going on for a while, smoke without fires etc. I’ll trust Radders and co. on this, after all it only took them a week, after The head rub, for them to finalise a deal. Just wish it had been Toronto, bet you’re boots it bites on the booty at KC.

I'm still gutted he's gone as he's a really good player. One of the best props in Super League.
The club have taken a strong stand and we'll be a better club for it going forward.
Also think it will cement the emergence of Abdul. He can make the loose forward Role his own now there's a vacancy in the pack.

He will either have a stormer and beat us single handedly. Or get sent off for punching Jake Connor.

Short term pain for longer term gain hopefully
