He is potentially a really good player. I'd love to keep him and see him work on his game he hasn't proven himself as a marquee player.
How much is he worth ?
Hastings isn't marquee either but Hastings is more important to our team.
It depends. Hastings @ 13 changes the picture completely.
Hastings is the guy leading the team around. He is the critical piece. Doueihi is the best runner we have in the halves so he is the most important apart from Hastings.
I think Brooks is better than Madden in that running 6 role as well...
Does anyone know of any edge backrowers we can realistically get that would impact our team positively.
We have IP but I think we desperately need another one.
I have the best inside information.

This is his last year. I think he had a mutual contract for next year but I thought they couldn't agree on a price.
It's interesting because he has been our best player this year but there is only so much money in the till.

This is pretty full on. He's been convicted of stabbing someone. I hope his supporters have a good look at themselves.
Good post but I disagree with the comment about it being cool. It's not cool. It's hypocritical and messed up.
One other point I'd make is that the mods changed because one mod appeared to ban people way too easily. People are still getting banned.
It doesn't seem to be about banning people...
He has had a few chances in the top grade this year and he has looked pretty good. He has also had some poor moments in the lower grades.
I think he is a work in progress.
