I said at the time that their simply wasn't scope for her to earn that within the system. She'd need to earn 80% of that outside of football payments and its simply not an option.I'd question Greg leaving as one that is not monetarily based. She'd get as much here as she'd get at Tigers. So either she was pushed, or was not welcomed back, or there is a rift with the club. Strange decision.On the other hand Nic Stevens leaving could certainly be about cash.
