Where did I criticise Watkins? I certainly didn't, great player. I've said nothing about his mental health not sure anyone has?


They have and its been discussed in the media a lot.
Not everything is about you.

Why are Leeds letting him go mid season when they are in a relegation fight?

Two possible reasons.
1. To immediately free up cap space for a major signing most likely a half back.
2. He is so far off the pace this season, and looks a shadow of the player he was, and simply will not be overly be missed

The first reason is the only one that makes sense in terms of early release. Being currently hopelessly out of sorts just means he's in the same boat as most of our squad. Doesn't stop a whole bunch of players getting picked.

Sensible from Leeds - he’s been abject and they can bring in someone to strengthen the squad, which is badly needed. Question is whether they will recruit poorly again and waste the chance.

Not sure if it's been talked about anywhere but are Leeds subsiding any of his wages for the rest of the season as an incentive for Gold Coast to take him early?
