I reckon it will be his last season. He just seems totally committed to Origin, so, once he drops that, I don't think he'll go around again...

He is partially in-charge, he'd be in Laurie's pocket, which is fair enough - he is the captain.

They'll be selecting the first team before ya know it.

For all the criticism he gets, he fits our grinding style perfectly. We will be easier to beat without him. Might force a style change from Flanno. Doubt it.

Happy for him to have another go around but it's on the condition he plays prop. No ifs or buts. That's where it works better for us, we already have a stack of backrowers on the books.

It's tough, I would think that at this point of his career a premiership is a higher priority than captaining NSW to another shield - an achievement he's already reached.

I don't think anyone would dispute we are a better chance of achieving that if he's playing as many games as possible for us which means putting aside rep footy.

On the other hand he'd be walking away from 100K (at least) and the chance to captain NSW to a series win where there wasn't a cloud over him (last shield we won was during the midst of the ASADA shitstorm).

Tough choice for him, hard to begrudge him wanting to continue playing rep footy.

I dont understand the persistance for big minutes from him

just burning himself out real quick

I'd love to see how he went with less minutes charging like a bull

even sign him up again and drop him back to the bench, be some kind of impact player

Good ideas...

I'd be happy for him to have another year, especially if he devoted himself solely to the Sharks...

Doesn't Glenmore's link at the top of the page say that he's likely making this origin series his last...

Gall in interview stated this last year for NSW.

If he plays in NRL next year would only be with the Sharks.

If he dosent play i can see him as Daley's assistant with the Blues

Love that he is pushing for Farah to replace him as captain. I would go for a younger guy to lead that NSW squad around.
Farah is cancer.

I agree about Farrah. But I reckon Gal's just being 'politically correct' for a change, sandshark. Can you imagine the backlash if he named or suggested a young guy...

Mitch Rein should be the hooker for NSW. Farah is toilet I am glad he isn't injured and has been selected to play against us this weekend.

HAHAHHAHAHAHAHA

Mitch Rein is the hooker equivalent of Nathan Gardner. Faking hopeless. Also looks like him except for the stupid samurai haircut.
