      • Another positive to Volkman is he can play 7 as well. That is what we need someone who can take the reins if Moses is out.

        • Getting used to Moses being OUT is a fact 

      • 24 longfin is not really young

    • "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....

      • Doesn't that actually support my point? If Super League is offering the security of a three-year deal while NRL clubs aren't, that's a reflection of his market. Market isn't just ability, it's what clubs are prepared to offer and for how long.

        So therefore if anyone is upset with not getting Nikorima, well other clubs aren't commiting either.

        • Never disagreed with you LB, just explained the subjectiveness of "his market" you are getting a bit sensitive in your old age, too much time on social media.

          PS No need to be getting old and cantankerous at your age....leave it to us silly old bastards!

           

          • I wasn't disagreeing with your overall point. I was more talking about the use of "subjective". Opinions on a player's ability are subjective, but his market is largely determined by what clubs are willing to offer. And I wasn't annoyed, just discussing the point. No sensitivity mainly just discussion and some debating.

          • I'll agree with that statement 🙄

            • what happened to McGinty? Silly old bastard LOL

              • Being an silly old bastard i wake up some mornings look in the mirror and say who the stuff are you😳
