Such a shame for Kallum, a player that has given his career to the Leeds Club only to be thrown to the side without a thought by the club.
Utter balls. The clubs' circumstances changed and he appeared to have lost some of his magic so they entered into a renegotiation of his deal - these happen all the time, usually in favour of the players (longer contract, better terms etc.) but not always. On this occasion Watkins clearly declared that he'd rather try his luck elsewhere so the club have allowed him to leave, mid-contract, for free, to the NRL where he'll almost certainly be on more money. Watkins has, IMO, been treated very well by Leeds in this.
