If releasing Sanders allows us to get a quality outside back for this year, do it

sanders is more than likely leaving at the end of the season as his path is significantly blocked for the next 3-5 years.

he isn’t going to get a run unless in our first grade team unless we lose 4 out out of Moses, Brown, Asi, Hands & Gutho - and if we’ve lost 4 of them the season is f**ked anyway so who cares.

we are in desperate need of a quality back who can slot straight in

If Matterson plays more than 20 games this year it'll be a massive step towards a premiership

The bloke is class when on the field.
He is. Which is what makes him valuable currency. Trying to swap Ogden or Maka for a good backline player would be like that kid trying to pay for a block of chocolate with a button and a plastic unicorn. I think as good as he is it doesn't diminish our team too much if are without him.

For the right outside back. Not just another teams problem.
We have to negotiate a favourable outcome for us and get full value for our quality half.

I would have thought Rodwell was gone by now given the interest from overseas. Unsure why he hasn't gone yet.
He is signed for next year. Its unclear if they want him this year. I cant see any reason why we stand in his way if the want him early as we really need that top30 spot and have plenty of middles.
