As the local newspaper reports , Lamb said he has played football and nothing else , never had a real job and so he says he wants to experience a normal sort of life without the strict regime of NRL training and commitments . He has been offfered an electician apprenticeship . Considering the stability including income from a lifetime trade qualification against a few more years of uncertain footy career , it sounds like Lamb has made the best decision ? https://www.maitlandmercury.com.au/story/6584586/brock-lamb-signs-w...
Brock Lamb signs with Maitland Pickers
Brock Lamb has turned his back on a contract with the Parramatta Eeels to return home to the Maitland Pickers and playing with his mates.
Pops, I tend to agree, if he can get a job as an apprentice electrician, would set him up better for the future. Certainly moving back to his home ground of Maitland provides him with reconnection with family, and he can still play RL with prospects of once he gets the trade side of his life in order he could still play NRL if he was interested in chasing a club.
I would prefer us to use this opportunity to sign Baptiste or Levi as back up. Both would dirt cheap. We have only 25 spots in our top 30 atm too so im wondering how much money is left in the cap
"Even after his slow start to 2025, Kautoga ended up leading all our forwards in post contact metre percentage.
He made giant strides until he was grounded against Penrith.Can only see him getting stronger and making bigger inroads next year.Kautoga…"
"Yea they recon Bloomfield and Risati are better union players than league and being selected in the u17 wallabies side showed it. So easier team for them to make professionally.
However, I wouldn't be to fast saying Bloomfield wont make NRL if he…"
"EA,
Bloomfield will go RU because he wont make NRL IMO. Risati needs to knuckle down this year. Can play but I cant see him ahead of Lorenzo, Fletcher at this stage. "

Only a mediocre back up, who cares.
