It's all well and good to been keen to sign him hardcore but if he plays in your halves you have massively overpaid for a 5/8.

He simply isn't one. Just cos he wants to play there doesn't make him good at it.

Why won't he play rep footy if he plays for the knights?

Gagai plays rep footy
Woods and teddy play rep footy

No reason why bird can't.
Clearly taking the pi$$.
Tedesco to go to about the only club worse than the tigers.......... bahahahaha

Is the broncs offer for real? Fake news? Good luck to him if he can grab that type of$$$ at a quality club, hard to say no...

Not a bad idea. Lock is fast becoming the 5th spine spot anyway.

Only thing would be getting the dummy back in his gob if he has to play forwards
I reckon if we gave him lock and the license to run when and where he wants he would be just fine with that.

It's a changing of the guard.

Once everyone was an athlete first and a footballer second. I blame unlimited interchange.

The changes to 12, then 10 and now 8 (is it) has allowed for a new breed of footballer .

Those who play what's in front. Those who do the 1% plays. Those who know where the ball will bounce. Guys like Luke Lewis.

Exactly.

I've been told he and his manager have shopped him around as a 5/8 and only a 5/8:thinking:
