I like that you give people the benefit of doubt.
But for mine, with Webster making a stand down call, I guess I trust Webster and I have thing about how important team culture is for the Warriors (I say more important than at any other NRL club).
It would have sucked for a lot of our boys, especially the younger ones going "where is Addin?" in the dressing room at a time where they really deserved to be enjoying what for them (having beaten Penrith against the odds and coming straight from NSW cup) should have been the team celebration of their young lives.
I also believe that a simple request by Addin to his coach would have been enough courtesy to see him allowed to go take some time with his family or whomever he took off to be with before the flight.
Nsw cup for rest if the year. Fuck the sharks. Bro just sees the sharks winning a prem this year and knows they highly likely wont back it up next year with or without him.

Happy to be wrong.
I can’t help but feel this is a case of “if the teams going all good, then algud.” If not, I’m out.
Those 4 losses in a row might have been to straw that broke the camels back. Regardless of the fact the boyz won against Penrith. His mind is made up. “I’m outta here”.
As I posted in a different thread. There was a small clip of Addin with the bench lads and it just seemed weird. (I’m surprised the warriors released it, cause it seemed pretty obvious to me.)

Do we even know why he did it? He is not the first nor will he be the last player that will be stood down. Apart from the last game the guy has been playing elite. Hardly the sign of a dropped lip. Would wait until after the bye before we start crucifying the guy.
HI time packing a sad did coincide with the signing of JFH. Maybe he doesn’t like all the positive attention that was given.
Why on earth would a player leave the changing room early?? Surely there is someone guarding the door to stop people getting in that says… where the feck are you going pal?

Jokes aside, His missus seems to be so damn toxic. It may all stem from her. Addin is a yes ma'am no ma'am hubby.

Not crucifying, merely burning at the stake so far.
His body language does look much more down trodden and apathetic as compared to 2023, barely any celebrations from his tries barring round 1.
Realistically though who's going to stop him

Nah but you certainly wouldnt catch me leaving my job without telling anyone i report to, especially if its a known standard and results in disciplinary.... unless i gave zero fucks....
I would if one of my parents was sick and was taking a call about it.
