Hardly means our 'problems' as you so delicately put it on and off the field are solved.
Whilst I'd listen to what most Leeds fans had to say about the Bird signing, I find Hetherington's comments extremely time-consuming and frankly, boring. Bird isn't banned from playing in the NRL, Cronulla simply didn't want him playing for another club because they knew he'd have gone somewhere else.
It is simply a matter of which clubs decide to do what. Leeds stuck by Ryan Bailey, as did Bradford over Leon Pryce and as Saints probably will do know. The signing doesn't de-value or make the Super League lose appeal at all, because Greg Bird simply hasn't been convicted of anything.
