Some of the duds on here have a massive go at Hayne for doing exactly what Graham does....
What - having a go week in week out, for all the minutes he's on the field? I'd like to see Hayne try that!

I'll pass on making Graham an offer though, about to be in decline, nearing the end of his impact - we'e already got Mannah filling that front row role.

You can prioritise centre down the order, absolutely. But having two gun centres is a big advantage. We're also losing our major backline weapon in Semi.
Its a no brainer,we should get Jarryd back.He wants to come back doesn't he....so what's the problem!!!!we have plenty of money in the cap and he can cover any position!!!

He wants to come back just like he wanted to come back last year for $1.2M and also why he never wanted to play for any other club as long as we were offering the most money.

As a huge Hayne fan we don't need him back. Our backline is already stacked with top players and we have a lot more coming through the juniors. None of them will be as good as Hayne ever was, but I don't think we need to skew our salary cap into having genuine top 17 players playing for Wenty (which we already have when everyone is fit). I believe our biggest concern is our middle rotation, and even with the addition of Evans I still believe we need an elite metre-gaining forward so that we can take advantage of our incredibly talented backline.

Our succession plan is also really good in this sense. Once Semi leaves we can move Hoffman over to the left and bring up Greg Leleisuaio. Once Mennings retires we can move Gutho over to the left and have Auva'a/Afualo on the right or we could alternatively leave Gutho on the right and bring up Dane Aukafolau. There's a lot of really talented players in our system who will allow us to spend big elsewhere, which is great for us. And then when our backs start to get pricey to hold onto we will also have a bunch of really talented forwards coming through which will allow us to hold onto our superstar backs.

Leave it to the nsw selectors to make choice.

Jennings has been good, very good. He has butchered a few tries not passing thou.

Walker is deadly every single time he touches the ball. More deadly then James roberts. His acceleration is the best of any centre in the game.

My team has Dylan walker thou. Jennings is class but i dont pick him for nsw. Better options now.

Younger? Yes.

Faster? Hmmmm.

Just better? No chance, imo. Jennings leaves him for dead with his defence alone.

Jennings has missed 9 tackles from 112 attempts, meaning he operates at 92% efficiency. He also very rarely gets caught out in defence. He has 2 tries, 2 LBs and 2 TAs

Walker has missed 21 from 98 attempts, making him 78% effective. And Manly have leaked tries down his side at times this season. He has 3 tries, 3 LBs and 1 TA

Mr 8.5% strikes again.

Ahh yes because rep selectors are well known for picking players based on form. I seriously hope they do pick Walker. I'd rather him in Origin than Jennings. That way we get close to our top 17 for more games than another team does.

Yeah I hope they don't pick Jennings either....

But as a NSW fan I also hope they don't pick Walker. He's shithouse. Jack Bird and Jarryd Hayne the centres for mine, or BJ Leilua
