  No thanks. Would rather have this:

  1. Gutherson
  6. Hayne
  7. Norman

  I don't know how many times in how many different blogs I can keep saying this: NO.

  Hastings is completely useless. He's not a match winner. He's the ultimate plodder.

    If we keep Norman we don't need the other half to be a match winner. We just need someone who can kick and tackle.

    Poupou - Hastings isn't very good at either. We need both the 6 and 7 as creative play makers / ball runners.
    
    2015 : Thurston / Morgan
    2014: Reynolds / Keary
    2013: Pearce / Maloney
    2012: Cronk / Widdop
    2011: Cherry-Evans / the Pea heart Degenerate
    
    Besides Widdop who is a genuine spud, premiers have always had 2 quality halves. Just think Hastings is mediocre and we could do better !

    At 19 or 20 Jarrod Mullen was supposed to be the next big thing. Same with Mortimer, Witt the list of players with enormous potential at a young age is endless. 99% of the superstar halves have established themselves by a young age. Reality of the modern game. I don't know is Corey is Cronk / Thurston material that his halves partner can be still learning the game and expect to make the finals ...
    
    Other issues :
    1. He has a shit attitude
    2. Not cheap

     Traditional Croissant : Agree 100%. Hastings lacks speed. I would go for the half up on the Gold Coast who is currently third in the pecking order up there. A young bloke, who played NRL against the Warriors in New Zealand recently and, from what I saw did well, and scored an impressive try late in the match. He can attack from the scrum base like the halves use to do in the old "days". He is unlikely to crack First Grade up there and may be willing to come south.

  I think you will find that he will go to dragons, he was a junior there before he went to the roosters

  I'll say the Dragons will have a massive play for him. I've seen him have some great games but I've also seen some shockers. But he young and learning, but would rather him then Kelly.

  Dragons.

  Talk about him leaving the Roosters starts after Norman says no to Dragons. Dragons desperate for a half.
