To be honest never was a massive fan of his , but if he had been the best 5/8 at the club , I think it’s poor that he is dropped for not wanting to sign with the club given that his contract is up in 18 months time. Yes club wants to get roster sorted but by same token they created this by not putting the offer closer to November especially given he asked for release 3 times last year and they would have had a inkling of his decision prior (again I blame RLPA , nrl for not having June 30 deadline and everyone causing this situation)
If club refuse to play him solely for not wanting to sign then he should be allowed to go (it’s not like he is doing a Moses and not putting in)
As for Gus , dogs may or may not want him but what I find he talks players like Galvin up a lot so clubs pay overs so he gets his real targets
