I think we should cut him free.
The flat attacking line that Panthers and manny other sides seem to go with in this day and age make it hard for blokes like Rooney to shine.
Rooney is a finisher, and has pace over 100, not 40 metres. Girds used to make breaks inside his own half and deliver quality ball to Rooney with 40-50 to the try line. This simply doesn't happen anymore. Roons would probably go better in a side like Brisbane or melbourne.
Very astute observations Fibro. Mind you I could probably score tries on the end of the Storm backline and my best days are well and truly behind me as you know, having lost a yard or two in pace.
