Its only 3 months and no-one has to be involved if they don't want to. As mentioned other players have had similar testimonials, Peacock had one a year or so ago as well.'"
Lee Radford's in the middle of his now as well for service to the game not to one club.

I do, although I don't particularly care as it's not my money he's pooling.
But the idea of a testimonial is to reward the effort and loyalty towards a club. Morley hasn't done the loyalty part with any of the clubs he's been at as he's moved twice.
I wonder what part the RFL plays in this though, because if they are doing it for Mozza, they'll have to do it for every other international player I would say.'"
TBF, the idea of a testimonial for 'loyalty' is a nonsense in my eyes.
Leeds have had a fair few testimonials recently, however if they were playing for a 'poor club' and they were offered more money and better opportunities, they would go.
Loyalty is playing for a club for free at a weekend, not getting employed by a club for a certain number of years.
Why does Jon Clarke for example deserve a testimonial simoply because he has been a solid player at Warrington, when Morley has been a brilliant player on both sides of the world, and has represeted his country a record number of times.
Some players never ever get the chance of showing loyalty as they are shafted by their club/coach, so testimonials for loyalty to a club are IMHO flawed.'"
Clarky deserved his testimonial, as does Moz. As regards your last sentence the name that springs to mind staightaway is Tommy Martyn. He was seriously shafted.
