X factor is a term whereas contexts massively misunderstood.
What do you consider X-Factor.
Why did the Broncos win a comp with 2 wingers who wouldn't cost over 300k each??? Wingers aren't everything and 700k for Lomax is ridiculous. The Storm Wingers aren't on that much
Agree with this 100%. Lomax is a great winger and has that winner mentality. But at the end of the day he is just a winger. Parra has lost many wingers over the years that we said could not be replaced... Semi, Fergo to name some recents. The money is better spent elsewhere right now and hopefully that winner mentality has rubbed off on afew around him.
We never replaced Semi, we just got someone else to play in his spot
To'o would be the highest paid winger in the game and he's won four premierships.
Lol who are you replacing Lomax with when he leaves ?
While 650 is alot Lomax is a SoO and international winger when available and if you haven't got anything to replace it you have to pay.
Good on Melbourne and Brisbane but hey Riff are idiots for paying Brian To'o similar coin are they.

Broncos had a winger available and not playing on 700k (Coby), what does that tell you or are you not smart enough to figure that out. We got JAC for 400 ish and you would not argue he is worth a lot more than that in an intangible sense.
You are busting your britches on Pezit and you have no idea that he is not a 5/8, well neither is Moses and he played there for 6 seasons. Relevance is the only thing that counts.......learn something in life other than being a the highest paid "dunce" in the class.
PS Explaining your logic is actually mind bending.....we should go out and buy 2 wingers for 300 each and win a comp! Try telling that to Penrith who won 4 in a row.
And yet Ryles seems very much ok about it. Lomax told my source where I heard this yesterday before released that Ryles took the news exceptionally well. Could Ryles see Lomax as great but not worth the money? I'm not saying he is or isn't but Ryles seems not too worried.
He could well do but he better have an answer for it as guys like the mentioned are that important.Hes our Brian To'o.
How many wingers do you see up n coming that can come in and have Lomax's input I'd suggest very few.As I don't see any on the market either.
I m actually hoping r360 is Storm in a teacup.I got a coaching friend of mine weighing up the mentioned r360 option also.He was speaking to his agent and he reckons there's at least 20-30 top tier NZ rugby players ready to jump and there shit scared of the nrl scouts getting into nz secondary schools first 15 rugby poaching talent as NZR pathways just aren't as lucrative to keep young players in the game and the lure of the AB jersey is wearing thin .Basically young players want it now.
