  • Definetly hoppa. IMO he will leave us next year anyway so he's the logical choice for me. That and the fact hayne is a hell of a lot a better player than hoppa.

    • I agree on all points. Where would you play Hayne and Izzy?
    • I think he'd kill it on the wing! Imagine he's kick returns and he wouldn't be beaten in the air!!
    • FME, why do you think Hoppa will leave us next year?

  • What if you can't have all three
  • No. Hoppa still has youth on his side and has shown his class in many games this year

    Hayne....is just a freak
  • Hayne fullback and izzy in the centres or the wing. A lot of people may think he will be wasted on the wing but boy what a strike weapon we would have out wide with him there.

  • I would keep Hayne and Hoppa. Folau's would take time to get back into the groove of the NRL.

    As Ron mentioned, I would get Folau and keep all 3.

  • I have a mate who has met John Hoppa on several occasion and he told him that hoppa will see out one year of his contract then leave for the dogs. I can't verify it so i didnt post it here but my mate is not known for making this stuff up so i tend to believe him.

"He played two weeks I think at left centre last year at the start. We abandoned that quickly but maybe we can consider it next year with Russell gone. Maybe a year or two next to the fox would sort him out."
