Just heard on triple M whisper that Eels and Dragons are monitoring the Luke Metcalf situation at the warriors, as their keen to re sign Cht and Tanah Boyd. Would you take him? It does show that at the moment if their is an elite half on the market the Eels might try and get him if they stop screwing around.

I asked LB what his thoughts were on Schuster when he was headed to the bunnies (I don't think he replied). Interesting proposition, all the ingredients are there just got to find a way to get the best out of him. As Clintorian said, if Bennett can't maybe he's a lost cause and not worth it but would be worth an inquiry
Train and trial no guarantees to anything if he can earn his way to a top 30 spot then you may have something but if you are interested Schuster he has to prove it to you.In no way shape or form is he handed anything.There's tools there with the ball but without it there's issues,at the end of the day imo that's all he is he won't give you the same effort without and herein why I think he's done and dusted as an nrl player.
No one is saying we should be rolling out the red carpet for him. Apparently he has a lot going on in his life and he may well not be suitable. Like anyone else, if he isn't committed it's a hard pass. I just think it's worth the ask to see where he is at.
He sounds hungry coryn. He had it all at one stage on 800k suddenly its gone. Maybe his time away has woken him up who knows
He's worth a crack. Bennett isn't perfect he doesn't always get it right. Ryles might be able to do something. Some saying get spencer so because robbo couldn't get the best out of him does thst mean he's a lost cause to?
Parra need centres big team Xerri & Tago would be ideal pick up this season, Yes CHT would be a good pick up but dont se Warriors letting him go
This is why we need to debut Lorenzo and give him 10 games to see if he's up to NRL standard or not
The season is done get him in
Few things to decipher from this.
Firstly, is this Metcalf's manager pushing the Warriors to name him and using us as pawns in that as we need a 6?
Or is it we actually are interested if a talent arises?
I think the former is more likely. Warriors going with CHT is cheaper too.
Havnt seen enough of talataina to speculate, but metcalf was killing it last year.
Atleast if you sign metcalf you know what you are going to get and thats a quality halfback, talataina is unknown if he can handle first grade.
Metcalf can easily play 7 or 6, I don't think the position will matter when you have the chance to bring in an elite half with speed. His injuries will always be a factor, so having Lorenzo to back him up will be the card we play until we have enough confidence that Lorenzo can take over.
