I am not blaming him for taking the money, that's his prerogative but i hope he does turn his form around and not just coast through his final year with us. On his day he is one of the best centres in the comp and our team looks better for him being in it.
To be fair TE, when the team is struggling, it's awfully hard for a centre or winger to really shine. More than any other position they are slaves to their team's current form.
he was never going, no club in the nrl will pay him more then he gets at the eels, look at the morris brothers , no one want them at around $800,000 a season or at all being in there 30's.
"For context, last year we didn't drop Dylan Brown until it was mathematically impossible to make the eight. That was round 20 and he signed with the Knights before round 2."
"I don't fully disagree. Getting 10 wins is not far from finals. Last few seasons 12/13 wins got you 8th. So really we should be able to add up to 5 wins this year IMO.

Well done Michael, thank you for your loyalty.
The mistake you made was coming to this club to play under these bums - career killers.
i just hope its the start of an upward spiral but who the hell knows the bloke can still play .but i agree this year they all have been well below par
I hope he continues forging the combination he has with his brother. Some good news at least.

jennings needs to play better now.....
Is it to be loyal to the club or because he won't the money he's on elsewhere ?
In all honesty, it's probably 50/50.
No he wouldn't get the same money elsewhere, but I do think he would like to help the club rebuild nevertheless.
