                      Strong clubs don't allow this to happen yet here we are finally.

                    • Without the player options he still would've been off contract. He still would've received the huge offer.

                    • Pou, I must have said this 20 times, I still do not understand why this is not understood. It just again states how options are misunderstood. (the fact that they are by the way, means they should never be used again).

                      e.g If Lomax asked for an option every year for the first 3 years of his contract we would have "hit the roof" as it turns out the only benefit we have is that he cannot play for any other NRL club.....whats the chances of someone making him an offer that Parra cannot refuse. i.e a payment transfer of some note.

                      PS When Lomax was released there was a comment made that someone paid a big transfer fee....was that a typo or did I imagine it?

                  • Coryn Hughes  He signed for a year - therefore he should be there for a year; Lomax signed for what 3-4 years? and there were rumblings midway or so during the season? Its simple - the club comes first. I have no issue with Lomax but my view is he made his bed. If players choose to leave with the clubs blessing, so be it; we move on and use or attempt to use his wage eslewhere. We all know the story with Pezet and Coryn, thats another story on here too. My point being we need guys who want to be here.

              • I'm not fussed either way but if doesn't come back we need to sign another experienced outside back, we have zero depth with  proven first grade experience. 

              • They just signed a guy whose doing exactly the samething using us as a stepping stone for something better.They know about that deal all along.There's not that different with Lomax it cost him a chunk of cash to get out early he's paid that.

                What I'm not liking is we don't have any sought of long term replacement of the talent that's going out the door that's the concern I've been echoing and with the club in a rebuild phase we aren't strong enough talent wise to lose players of the caliber of Brown or Lomax that's the concern.

                Me I put all the BS narratives aside and look at what we have and just put it in simple terms ok Browns gone are we a better side with Lomax in it or without him if the answer is the first get a deal done and let's get on with the rebuild.

          • not actually overcharged with genious's....,well you just proved that Poppo, Lol

            • Thanks for confirming that Randolph!
