If you wanted any justification to whether getting rid of Ryan was the correct decision, then watch the u20 games from today. Nofolomu and Koroibete are the future. Re-signing any winger for 3 years would be stupid. Hence why Ryan said "I couldn't be sure at the end of next season that they wouldn't try and offload me" (or something like that on the footy show). Keeping Ryan for 3 years would just mean we have to either not pick Nofolomu for 3 years, or have to pay to keep a guy like Ryan running around reserve grade. What one do you want?
Re-signing Ryan would only hold back these two. When I look back at the three tries Koroibete scored today, the first one I don't see Ryan/Tuquiri/Utai skipping out of Tuivisa-Sheck….in the second one I don't see Ryan/Tuquiri/Utai having the legs to outpace Tuivisa-Sheck.... And even that last one which he set up for Miller, I don't see either of our wingers bursting through. And Nofolomu had a blindrer and again I don't see any our wingers scoring the one he did.

Face it as tough as it is on Ryan it was the correct decision to not keep him. While Tuquiri shouldn't be kept its a different issue when its only for a year.
