What's everyone's opinion on Garner, should he be re-signed?
I think he adds value not so expensive and versatile. Good bench player or after Sorenson retires can take his spot.

As much as it pains me to admit it, he was pretty solid last night, even after I generally wasn't keen on him, and since hosking has left for the Raiders, Garner role expanded moreso into our JaemonSalson utility hole plugger...
To me personally he is a better fit for the bench

*Mav was looking owned out there last night, he was still getting back up, but very pedestrian. Some of his runs didn't bend the line, and he was getting creamed everytime he took a hit up, hopefully he gets used to it, coz it was looking like Martin Lang sort of stuff.
*Laurie isn't getting the minutes I hoped to show case what he can do, feel like unless there is a real proper fk off broken leg or something serious, he won't get on at all... Ivan probably doesn't trust him or even then he would rather shift Martin, Garner etc around and still he would sit on the pine. Daine musta kicked his pet dog or something.
*Cole looks the goods but seems to be very insular, I don't think he is utility material, meaning he won't be able play anything other than 5/8th, where as Tito, may, tago, alamotti seem to slot in several positions, maybe a stint at hooker like what jerome did when he started, might get him more open than just the one out runs
