He is not part of the club anymore and has no right to comment on the goings on at the club.
His comments are not helpful and appear to be designed to cause instability within the club.
I wonder if he is as concerned for the honest toilers at the Warriors while he is sitting there counting his truckload of money ?
For those who missed it, here is the article:

TOILERS PAY THE PRICE IN DOGS FIGHT
By - Will Swanton
The Bulldogs have more than three players coming off contract. And it's those who aren't the superstars that former captain Steve Price fears for.
The Warriors skipper says it is inevitable a premiership-winning club will be torn apart the following season, but his greatest concern is that his old club is becoming so preoccupied with re-signing superstars Sonny Bill Williams, Willie Mason & Braith Anasta that honest toilers such as Corey Hughes are going to be left high and dry after the big names have taken their chunk of the monetary pie.
Williams has agreed to a two year, $800,000.00 deal and the Bulldogs are trying desperately to keep Mason & Anasta as well.
Meanwhile players such as Hughes, Tony Grimaldi and Jamaal Lolesi are awaiting to sort out uncertain futures.
"It's sad" Price said. "Everyone is talking about Sonny Bill Williams, Willie Mason and Braith Anasta, but what about the other guys ?"
"They're important and in some ways nearly more important to the club in the way they really go about their job every week. They aren't getting paid the money they probably should be paid but they turn up every week and never let anyone down. They shouldn't be forgotten.
"Everyone talks about Willie having to wait for Sonny to make a decision, and they say 'poor Willie'
"Well what about poor Corey Hughes?. What about a bloke like Adam Perry when he's off contract ?. They've got to wait for those three other guys to decide what their doing to do and then they get whats left over - if there is any".
