If he didn't have the PO he could still wait until round 10 to let us know what he's doing anyway.
In fact he could wait longer.
And we could have decided since November 1 last year to target a replacement with $900K up our sleeve and tell him he's not in our 2026 plans... Are you not getting that??

Would we have done that, or would we still be trying to extend him?
I reckon I know
I reckon you don't know at all... The coach who deemed it appropriate to give him captaincy honours after his sexual touching suspension derailed the 2023 season was gone by November. There's a new sheriff in town, one who has shown he gives zero f**ks how long you've been at the club, or what your qualities on and off the field might be....

No, November if he hasn't signed we move on. We also probably would have extended him prior to November when he would have been off contract or at least known if he was going to bigger off..

Gee we would have really missed Dylan in the past 2 years.

In 2023 he did more damage in a nightclub then he did on the field being paid 900k a year.

In 2024 he was basically a non-event without Moses. I don't recall one game he took by the scruff of the neck without Moses by his side last year.

Thankfully we gave the keys to the joint for 10 years with a million POs.

Take the north connex and M1 up to Newy Dyl and park yourself at Mereweather to play under Bush coach 2.0.

Think I said someone always comes in on any comment and argues etc and is responsible for 50% of the posts as he makes it about himself, may need to up that percentage.

But we didn't want to do that. The club wouldn't give a contract like this to a player they didn't want to keep. Brad Arthur might be gone but the rest of the crew who negotiated and approved his current contract are still here. He was a key member of the squad when he re-signed in 2022 and he is no less so now.

The sheriff who helps out the list management group, according to him? Maybe he was just being humble and he's actually been brought in to give orders to everyone from the CEO down?

You don't know either. But your assumption was that he is off contract every single year, which isn't supported by the evidence as there was no media circus at the end of 2023. At least the version put forward by WWoS:

A. makes sense, and

B. is supported by the evidence.
Comprehension inst your strongest suit. You want me to be saying he is off contract every year because that is incorrect and suits your narrative, but I didnt say that, i said he is never more than 12 months from Contract negotiations, which is correct.

Fair point. Has he learnt from it?
In 2024 he was basically a non-event without Moses. I don't recall one game he took by the scruff of the neck without Moses by his side last year.
Hard to take any game by the scruff of the neck when the opposition are scoring five tries per game.

It's incorrect. He hasn't negotiated for two years. If he activates the option, it'll be another three before he is free to negotiate again, then another three if he takes the option for 2029+
