Yes, very interesting indeed matPORTS. The usual thing when a player is free to leave is that the manager of that player uses his best endeavours to obtain a better deal for his client and in many cases, that player becomes the centre of a "tug-of-war" with several clubs pulling this way and that way to sign the bugger. Not in Zac's case and his manager has surely had someone directly come to him to say, we want him if he can be released and here is the deal.
A deal and offer that the Manager could not refuse I guess because he has gone to the Eels who think that they have bought the best player on the market that would bring them greatness for years to come. There was no other club showing any interest such is the little demand for Lomax. We did not even put up a big fight to keep him and refused his wish to leave but such was his persistence the club agreed to let him go on the basis that he continue playing with the club until the end of the season. In this case, why has the Dragons even agreed with this arrangement - do they see him helping us make the semis and if the club makes it then what's the go with that? I just don't understand it. If Lomax said that he doesn't want to be at the Dragons then why in blazes is he still at the Dragons? Crazy???
I think there was a fight at the start but it became clear he wasn’t going to stand down.
And for team unity, cohesion and command reasons, you shot him.
I was also thinking, if you let him choose his position and boxing and then other players see this and try to turn it on and it could get pretty messy.
Zac should have realised, Flanno and the club, they can’t be seen as being weak to the players as well.
All these other demands might turn up and you’ve got bulk unhappiness.
Players are very emotional, strong sense of justice about their careers.
And the side is going OK under Flanno.
No one wants that momentum to slide away.
