Interesting Podcast with Gus this week. He speaks for a while about Dylan Brown and what to do with a kid like that.
He sights examples of Daniel Mortimer and how we signed him for too much and for too long only to find that he didn't rise to the occasion every week as first thought..
He sights Adam Keighran as another example. Adam was on his books last year for 70K. Warriors approached him and said that he'd see some NRL, so Gus released him. After a dream debutlast week, do the Warriors lock him up for a healthy deal ? Or do they play the waiting game.
He said that some players get dirty from the waiting game. Saying that players who are on massive unders whilst playing FG don't like it when clubs take advantage of low contract values and don't pay commensurate salaries.
So do we sign Brown now or sit it out for a few months ?
My view is that we keep him (and his manager) in the loop, but don't pull the trigger just yet. It's a risk, because there will be clubs in his manager's ear already who will be making their case.
