Sure he has had a couple of soft weeks but surprised by this. Our recruiters must be a bit more positive about signing versatile  new blood than I am actually.Â
I am ok with it. Walker has been good this year, though i reckon Paulo is moving towards that role off the bench next year. Walker is 33 next year, he would be looking for a 2 year plus deal. Do we want to offer him that and risk him declining? I would rather either try and use Smith in that role, could take some time, or try and get a younger player to fill that void. Someone like Jazz Tevaga or Erin Clark who can play Hooker as well.
I know he is good and great to keep but he is important for our attack with his organisation but other than that doesn't offer too much. Not a bad player or a liability by any means, but what he would want, going to SL at 33 he will get another 2-3 years out of his career compared to staying in the NRL.
"Thing about Donaghoe at the moment is he is a tweener. Not 100% sure what his best position is. He has played the positions you mentioned but doesn't really excel in any. That is perfect for us as his role is simply that link man and mr.fix it.…"
