I gotta say that Ian has been a pleasant surprise this year. After playing in France for the past few years there were always going to be a question mark over his ability to keep up with the pace of the 2007 game.

To his credit he has been one of our best running forwards and scored a bunch of nice tries (+ FG :lol:). He will be missed in 2008 and I'm worried that we will be a man down of his quality.

Who do we all think will step up and fill his shoes in the 17 squad ?

I think the next two players to come in are Hauraki and Paulo. Robinson and Wagon will be the workhorses and a few others may get a chance to play first grade.

We should sign Ian to play only against the Broncos

He has scored 4 tries this year

3 have come in matches against Brisbane

I'd bet that if we have injury problems next year in the pack, Ian just might play a few games

he seems pretty certain to retire...

the walk around the field pretty much sold it for me that he wont be coming back

He has been great for us this year, but the way he is playing i think he's leaving nothing in the tank.

I asked him last night "you sure you want to retire ?" and he just gave me e dirty look

I'd say he's been asked that question alot

Yeah.. Unfortunately he is done and dusted when it comes to Footy :( Tried to use the rationale that if he was still playing out his contract in France he would actually have to play one more year. I guess he just knows its time, and there is so much work on the farm for he and his wife to get stuck into. Broke my heart yesterday tho :cry:
