Drinkwater's not worth that as a % of the SC.

if that's a year then no thanks, and not many will pay that for a releasded player.

if that was over 2 years i would not be signing him. 3 maybe. pricing himself out of the market, or just giving himself somewhere to negotiate down from

I'm confused.

Lolehea was clearly signed to fill the half back role with Myler. Moon was doing a bad job and lolehea was signed early on.

Sinny then came in and brought McClelland. A young, talented, but unproven at this level half back.

Why do people now think lolehea will be put at fb in place of the best young FB we have had in many a year to make room for an unproven new signing?

I think some have spent too long watching McDermott's team selection process.

Walker at fb, lolehea and myler at halves, McClelland providing cover and proving he is worth a shot.

The only logic in releasing Parcell and Golding would be if there is a new hooker coming in. Dwyer played some effective minutes at the back end of the season against some pretty crap opposition.

Releasing Parcell seems a strange rumour. Maybe he’s on a big wage and we need the cap space, we were quite desperate for a hooker when we signed him. If that cap space is to sign Martin Taupau then fair enough, although surely we would need to sign another hooker on the cheap to compete/rotate with Dwyer.

In this situation, ironically, wouldn't you keep Golding as he can play hooker and offers a different dynamic to Dwyer?

Not saying I want this but mind.

I don't doubt he will be, thought so since my youngest used to play against him. Only question in my mind is can he handle the physical side at the moment, or is it too early?
