Why? Can't keep em all. And the kid has played a few decent games in under 20s.
Oh and his last name is Hastings.

Where's he get a game at the Rorters? They have the NSW halves pairing last time I checked.

He's a fullback champ

OK. So he's a fullback. Where's that leave Dugan and Beale then?

 

[watatank]

He's a fullback now but could easily end up in halves or hooker. I believe he is more familiar with those positions too.

So fullback for the Rorters but halfback for us.

We should pull out all stops to keep him. As early as next year he could be our first choice selection for an injured Rangi Chase with Kyle being first choice replacement for an injured Widdop.

Hastings has the all of the signs of being a great halfback. Keeping him from signing with the Roosters would be a very difficult exercise.

Sorry champ gotta disagee there hes Jaskson is a halfback has played all his junior footy as a half. In fact never seen him play fullback till he was promoted to 20s. He only plays there because the 20s have a few halfs at the moment and are pretty skinny in
fullback depth.

Playing Jackson at fullback on a full time basis would be a mistake.:crazy:

Thanks champ.
Which begs the question - why would the Rorters want him?

Roosters are thinking long term in the same way that we are. Only trouble is that Hasting's father is a Roosters hero and so the connection with the Roosters.

So he's guaranteed a starting spot with them because of his old man? I thought this was a professional game these days. Silly me.

I'm guessing they view him as a replacement for Maloney, not Pearce. That's assuming he develops like people seem to think he will.

Where's Maloney going? He'll be around for years yet.

The Rooster want him because he is a great prospect.
The Dragons want him because he is a great prospect.

Hastings is a junior of our Club.
Hastings father is a hero at the Roosters.

The Roosters will offer Hastings more money.
The Dragons will offer Hastings a better chance of playing NRL sooner.

Who thought up the name Drain? I'm exausted!

 

[Drain the Dragon]

Still clear as mud. I'm well aware of the facts but thanks anyway Capt Obvious.

The Ace up the Rorters sleeve is Hastings is managed by his parents.

All these emotive type connections shouldn't come into contact negotiations in a truly professional sport. He should be looking for his best opportunity to advance his career.

Mmmmm not sure how kevin Hastings is suppose to manage Jaskson Whilst hes living in Florida??????

Anyway possible his mother Megan may have a hand in his management as she is a very accomplished business women and lovely person. If she is infact Jackson manager, I know she has close ties with both the dragons and Roosters management.

Heres hoping he stays where he belongs the red and white.:roll:

 

[watatank]

Sam Ayoub is his manager
