"To'o doesn't kick goals so there is that also Lomax has that point of difference over just about every other winger in the comp.So that ability to effects games and results aswell."

Look at the Warriors at the moment, their pathways are buzzing, not all can play for the Warriors. Same as not all Union plays can play for the all blacks.
You live in NZ, why is the awe for AB dying off?

The awe is dying off because this generation and the one past have so many different options to make a living.Kids now can't go anywhere without a screen with in grabbing distance and you've got to force it on them to get a way from them.The awe is dying off because if you don't make top sides or aren't identified early kids just go elsewhere or aren't or lose interest.Hence less numbers unlike in years past basically.The game doesn't look at late bloomers and if you don't make academies the clubs where all the numbers are don't get the adequate development resourcing to compete and it makes it harder for kids in that window to get to the next one and the gap gets bigger and bigger lessening there opportunities.
Super Rugby needs to go disbanded for good and the provincial competition our strength needs to be our shopfront.Plumb the Super money back into the clubs and the above mentioned as then we get more talent to look at and a more efficient spend.
What will happen lomax will go the r360 will last 12 months and get canned. Then nrl will buckle at the knees and allow lomax back who will probably sign a big contract with the Perth bears or dolphins and once again parra will get fucked over
Parra need to say fuck off zac honour your contract
See that's what I am saying, we are going to get bent. Watch him go to roosters after this comp fails, so fucking done with the NRL. Us as a club are too nice we have no guy or grit to tell this lowy cunt to sit down and what makes no sense is how the fuck we have no cap money for pezet who the fuck are these people running this so call Broncos of the west. Moe, Lenny and Homer jeeeez.
Lomax is a champion giving up his kangaroos jersey so he can concentrate on the eels.
LOL
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
Who I spoke to said that amount of money is right.
Hard no. He has a contract. No transfer fee nothing. Parra aims for the 2027 Premiership with Lomax on one of the wing positions.
360 they can have Matto, Hands and Joey Lussick.
Ryles is building a team that wants to play for Parra. Lomax is after a pay day just like Brown and good on him. The good thing is Ryles doesn't seem to concerned.
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.
