times are a changing,think the club have realized its foolish ways ,and is sorting out its messIt's interesting, we are so stocked at 6 right now, and thats assuming Laui comes to play 7. I'd be surprised if Onitoni stays with the rugby interest an no doubt from other clubs given the lack of halves in the game. Galvin has already been agitating for a release.
Richardson himself said exactly this,
“No kid will leave a club if he thinks he’s going to be the halfback in three years’ time.
“[But] he’ll leave the club when that shuts off to him. So when you bring players in, you’ve got to think what opportunities you’re blocking off for the kids coming through.
“And if you do that, and you allow for that in your planning, those kids will stay with you and that’s where you’ll get your loyalty. But Wests don’t do that, they want the big hit. That’s why they get beat every week.”
