Looks like he may not be too far away from a return to FG?
Who's going to get dropped for him?
I think AD is safe, he's going OK and his GK.

I think the only option is AD.

Wingers:- Skelton, Turuva, Staines
Centres:- To'a, AD's spot

If we had all our players available excluding May and Makasini I wouldn't pick AD. I'd find a spot for Skelton, Turuva and Staines in the team ahead of AD. I just think AD is too slow for the outside backs or fullback.

In stating that I think AD has been really good this season and in my opinion he has outplayed Galvin in the halves with less opportunities. He has also done well goal kicking and it's going to be hard to drop him.

AD might be a really good bench option. You could play him at lock or edge back row. I reckon he'd be better than Bird. The thing is I can't see the club offering him anything other than a utility player contract so I also think he'll be gone at the end of the season.

I'd say $400k at this stage and I'd hope he'd accept that. My reasons are:

* He gets to play and be looked after by his brother. No one else can offer him that. They obviously have a good combo on the field.
* We've shown faith in him and given him a chance.
* He's an undoubtedly good player but only 1 game back, and against arguably the worst team in the comp.
* He's also a powderkeg that could erupt in a negative way at any time, ala Robert Lui.

I think they need to get serious though, I do think he will be a good one for us.
I think he will go with the money, if it gets to be a big difference. (e.g. if the $650k is real)
Our one advantage is, we have last bite, I believe.
