Gasnier. A name synonomous with our great game, a legacy large by any standard. So, is he off to Ruggers?
For me, blind freddy can see it is more than likely a ploy to bump up the ol' salary, following in the footsteps of Johns most notably, albeit given the precedents mean it has to be all the more convincing each time its tried.
I think he is a great player, capable of single handedly swinging a game. Should he demand the millions of dollars being bandied around in the cash rich game of union? Probably not. Certainly should not be seeing anything like those players already proven in the game.
Who knows, maybe the whole salary cap environment us leaguies live in makes it easy on foreign code invaders pillaging our rich stocks. I think the NRL will kick in a couple of hundred thousand, not because he's necessarily worth it (unproven in union), but because it would be a disaster to lose "The Name" to thugby.
That said, he's probably a better chance of winning a "Super" title than the chances of the perenially underperformings Saints are of winning the NRL title...
