"Hard no. He has a contract. No transfer fee nothing. Parra aims for the 2027 Premiership with Lomax on one of the wing positions.

Lomax is a champion giving up his kangaroos jersey so he can concentrate on the eels.
There's no way the 360 model can be sustainable but with the money being offered to Lomax it will be bloody hard to say no.
Breaking it down (if rumours are true), he is being offered US $1M/year (tax free) to play
Thats $1.5M AUD-tax free-which is more than 3 times what he is currently receiving after tax currently.
If he's playing on the wing in union he "might" do 5 runs a game and potentially extend his career by several years.
Its bloody hard to say no to but very hard to see this going beyond 1 season

Tom Jenkins lost his spot to Alomoti this year and is only signed for 2026 I believe so can negotiate from November 1. If Panthers are willing to release him early he would be my pick but I can't see them letting him go.
If not Cobbo, joins dolphins next year and they are already stacked in the outside backs with Herbie and Averillo in centres, isaako and Bostock on wings, hammer and fuller at fullback. Add in Cobbo and some good young talent like Junior Tupou in reserves and there will be quality not playing regular NRL level.

We go 2 steps back if Lomax leaves. What tells you 360 wont make a play for other players ie Iongi? Are we going to bend over everytime someone throws money at our players? Fcuk them. They can take what we leave by the bins.

Season doesn't start till October maybe valadys should get into bed with them and allow players to ho on short term contracts like the IPL and T20 comps let players go maximise there earnings.
