Sorry Gaz, but that is a little bit of revisionist theory there mate.

French played a total of 2 games at 5/8 for Wenty (our 2's) and both of those early in 2019. The rest of his NSW Cup games were on the Wing or at Fullback.

And BA froze him out of FG because he refused to put his body on the line and do the work required to be an NRL winger. Perfect for ESL though.

He wasn't a winger. We had a better fullback in Gutherson.
Nobody else wanted him either so meh

Of course it didn't. French isn't suited to any position other than fullback in the NRL and Gutherson beat him. The point is French was surplus to requirements but you're still complaining he's gone?
I haven't complained about him leaving...
Show me where I complained about him leaving...just said he's a good player and has lots of skill and super fast but the coach wanted to use a twig on the wing in 1st grade in the NRL and that was never going to work..
The coach made the decision...
In BA we trust...oh wait

After Gutherson emerged as the fullback, Arthur tried to fit French in the team. When it didn't work, he got rid of him. Are you saying he should've gotten rid of him sooner?

All between 2019 and 2022. In the other seven years Arthur's didn't know how to coach.

Bulked him and used as a backup fullback / utility...anyways enough of Frenchie. Good luck to him, he's made a home in the UK.
