It doesn't really matter, the end result is the same. But it does provide an opportunity to play a youngster in the NRL which is better for WTs long term

This article has a bit more detail

Wests Tigers centre Joey Leilua has taken personal leave for family reasons days before their must-win clash against the Bulldogs.

Leilua's family has been struggling in Sydney under the bubble restrictions, with the Tigers centre driving his partner and children back to Canberra to be with extended family who can provide assistance.

"Wests Tigers have today confirmed that centre Joey Leilua has returned to Canberra due to personal family reasons," a Tigers statement read.

"Having voluntarily left the club’s bubble, Leilua will be placed in a temporary COVID hold as per NRL guidelines.

"Wests Tigers have informed the Project Apollo Group and will await further advice after consideration of all circumstances."

Leilua has been placed in a temporary COVID hold by the NRL and is not expected to play this Sunday, but he may not have to undergo 14 days of isolation if the NRL deems it is safe for him to return.

The 28-year-old plans to return to Sydney once his family has settled back into Canberra and live away from them for the rest of the season.

He told Tigers officials of his decision on Wednesday, having returned from a hefty suspension against the Knights last Saturday.

The news comes as the Tigers cling to their slim finals hopes by a thread. They must beat the Bulldogs on Sunday to remain any hope of slipping into the top eight.

No it doesn't, it states he told the club he had to leave the bubble.

It doesn't really state he told the club either.

Sorry...the below made it sound a bit more serious than requesting to leave the bubble and being granted the leave. But still vague....in any case, I guess the discussion would be about fines and sanctions if it wasn't a legit leave request. My mistake.

By doing so, **he has broken the game’s biosecurity protocols**, which means he will be sidelined for at least 14 days if he returns to the bubble.

However, it is unclear if Leilua plans on returning this year.

The Tigers have informed the NRL of Leilua’s actions.

Basically it appears his family were struggling with the restrictions, doesn't say that he didn't have permission from the club. Also he plans on returning once his family is settled in Canberra.

Of course it matters
If he had to go home for legit reasons and asked permission to do so is a lot different from taking off .

 

[GNR4LIFE]

Given the amount of walk outs the clubs had over the last couple years, how does this not raise red flags? Getting serious Matterson vibes.

SO basically


he will possibly be available for game 1 of the finals.....


:smirk:

All good mate, it happens when digesting information quickly, it also does state he told the club

"News Corp has learnt Leilua told officials on Wednesday he had to leave the bubble for family reasons.

It is understood he has since returned to be with his extended family in Canberra."

Yeah, but it sounds like he just left and said oh yeah by the way I had to go...sounds like it was a last minute thing.

Anyway...relax...
