I think the word "that" was meant to be "than", if his family were in Leeds we'd know nothing about it, but a minor issue of travelling from here to Australia means he needs more than a week,it's called a PRIVATE LIFE. So long as the club agree with whatever time he needs then no issue, if he comes back with an NRL deal on his pocket then we can start criticising.
playing someone or indeed having someone at work whose mind is elsewhere can not only mean their mind isn't focussed to do the job right so they can be a hinderance/have a negative impact on certain outcomes (through no fault of their own) but also potentially be a danger to themselves and others.
saying no is not an option in these circumstances, not only do you alienate the individual and there's a high likelihood they'll just go/not turn up anyway, you cause yourself no end of grief with employees/colleagues and potentially local community even business partners/investors etc.
mind you when someone comes to you and says their 'gran' has died... for the third time in 5 years (a real gran, a step gran and a gran in law is all i could imagine a senario for) some people do take things a bit too far at times.

Imagine how many tries Kelly could have scored if his mind was on the game. People react in different ways. We are not machines, we are individuals. To assume it will always have a negative impact on their work is highly ignorant.

I was thinking of giving him a break for the Salford game anyway. He`s taken a battering in every game so far and I believe he looked, at times, out of it all. Just my thoughts like.
Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out and proudly proclaiming `Wow, what a ride`

From what I understand, Kelly has very good reason to be returning home. I wish him well.
I don't know anything, but if he needs time and the club have agreed then I have no issue, the fact he even played at the weekend is enough to know he's turned the corner
