Joey G HAS to stay...he's our best running backrower at the moment. Far better than Hindy in that regard. As for the cleanout list
Robson-Taking up a spot at Wenty young kid could have eg Mortimer. Nothing against him as a player, but we need that spot IMO
Cayless-I have masses of respect for him, but his best is long behind him and even at the lowest I've heard for his contract (around 350k) he's taking up too much of the cap. Sell him out to England if we can
Lowrie-Again, purely because of what he's reportedly on, and because we have too many toilers and not enough hard heads.
Oake-Too small to make an impact, sadly. I like the guy, he's tough as nails, but we can't afford to have him hanging around I don't think
Cordoba-Again, reportedly on 6 figures and simply isn't worth that. Has never lived up to his promise and doesn't look like doing so in the near future
Ben Smith-Sadly, I think his injuries have put paid to all his potential. Too rangy and not strong enough to be a forward, but too slow thanks to the injuries to be a back.
And the following guys are on thin ice;
Hauraki
Tautai
See how they travel for a bit longer, if they don't aim up, seeya
