I'll say it. The NRL were threatening every merkin under the sun that if you touch R360 you'll get ban hammered from playing in the NRL for a time that is virtually your football career. Now they do a 180, 'the game needs him' and it's then twisted to make ol' mate Zac be the victim in all of this. Bad publicity for the NRL, mega dollars spent on lawyers plus opening a giant can of worms for other players who decide to chuck a tanty.
Let's remember. We had Lomax on our books for four years, so his wing spot wasn't paramount in the minds of our recruitment team as far as a replacement was concerned less than a year ago. The gun for hire has now got a bullet stuck in the chamber.
Like sand through the hourglass of time. These are the days of our lives.
