I actually don’t know how Bird fits into the structure 6-18mths down the track. He will be too slow for the backs. Won’t be in the halves. By that stage we should expect Latu or someone else to step into Lock.
For right price to uplift the squad depth maybe but comes across as a FOMO panic someone is available purchase.
In 25 can see Bird as a lock starting, maybe backrow at a pinch but post that transitional into rotation. So comes down to deal length and price.
Kobe/Corey can see them stating & rotations with easy benefits even if we nabbed both. They instantly give us an uplift.
Yeah .. not a fan .. St George didn’t want him past the end of 25 … and Flanagan is his long term mate apparently ..would know him a lot better than BM
