  • I feel Volk is very similar player 

    • Except way younger and on the improve.

      • People are finally starting to catch on. It seems like outside backs is the area we are deficient and be the focus of our recruitment. There's plenty of good one's out there, shouldn't be difficult to get a few to the club. 

  • Why waste our cap on him go get Burton on keep using the youth. We wasted our time with Pezet, we should waste time on Kodi as well.

  • Who knows if we were talking to him. But also, if he goes to SL, I think that says a lot about his market at the moment and what all the other teams think.

    Is Volkman worth the investment for at least another year? I would say yes.

    • I'm not sure on salary or duration for volk, but if we follow the same model we did with Iongi we will be in good stead.

    • You can see the improvement in Volkman. He's still young and learning each week. I'd like to see him stay to be honest. Another off season and he will improve even more.

    • "His market" is subjective LB, his future at SL is probably a 3 year deal, which will see him home, realistically he probably like most of us, see about one good year left in him for NRL.....

      I would take Nikorima if we cannot get what we want, he can even play hooker at a pinch. BUT not if we get who we want, namely Burton in the first instant. At this point in time it gives you further options as we are not going to produce a home grown 5/8 from what I can tell. Joash is just as effective as a fill in as Volkman is, together as a halves pairing they do not offer enough.....Moses and Burton give us an elite pairing with Iongi and one of our young hookers. 

      Having players like Volkman and Joash singly offer back ups, Nokorima only if we don't get the 5/8 we want.

      Now this type of planning is what (i hope) is taking place as we talk, can someone explain that  to our soldiers (dumb fans) that they are not privy to such discussions....
