Agreed , but he has 1 career and he lost 2 years . Sure he got his base wage , but he was origin/ test level . Thats a couple hundred k , plus endorsements lost as he was out of sight out of mind .
Also the phins forward depth has surprisingly gone gangbusters. A lot of guys who were middling took a massive leap and repair the faith . It’s made Fleglers 1 mil a year contract look slightly redundant . I guess they figure maybe his salary could be better given to bostock, Herbie and the hammer . I kind of get it for both sides .

Can you stop turning every single situation that’s up in the air into doom and gloom . He hasn’t signed his contract . It’s nov 1 on Sunday . He might be testing the market , it might be the club has spent the last few weeks getting the Fainus across the line , it might be we are losing a bench prop . Either way , none of that is doom and gloom.

The last few weeks? How about the last few months when half the team re-signed. Not a whisper from him. Just being realistic.
 
“I just want them to know that I’m capable of playing footy again,” he said.

“I’m probably fitter, physically and mentally stronger than I was back then playing. I’ve got a lot to give to the game, not just to the game, but to the next generation of kids coming up.

“Most of them probably looked at me as a role model before I came to jail, and hopefully they still do. I can still speak to them about the path that they want to choose, like which way they want to go. If the NRL do hear this, everyone in life needs a second chance. Hopefully, the NRL can give me one. I’ll take it with both hands.”
