It's part of having depth and players having to compete for positions.Too early to be writing Bud off in my opinion. I agree he looks down the pecking order, but surely too early to call it.
I hope they do,Lomax has made it very clear he wants to play right centre or fullback.
I can’t see Parramatta moving Penisini or Gutherson for him.
I'm fairly sure the Dragons want a good player in return, though.I can see Parra offering Matto for Lomax, which I think dragons would take. Otherwise I think he'll end up at by the roosters given all the backs they're losing.
BREAKING NEWS
Wests tigers have singed to many good players for next year how will they find room for the 3 Time premierships winning state of origin level halfback tough times ahead for the tigers
Seriously this is pretty much a story nrl journalism these days is a complete joke
Hey don't knock taree Tito.. god's countryTaree? Ooh…oh no. Bad areas man. Bad areas.
I’m from Forster - where the real OGs are from. Don’t come down to my bowling club. This is what we do to the out of towners.
You're wildly overestimating the number of clubs that are set in the halves. Off the top of my head, the Sharks, Dragons, Bulldogs, Titans, Souths and Knights all have reason not to be totally happy with their starting halves and several others have absolutely no depth. $500k is nothing for a starting half nowadays and wouldn't be a disaster for a backup.At the start of the year before a ball was kicked I said we should sell sullivan and everyone jumped on me here.
Bc as I said - if bud has a bad game he’s a dud.
After we signed Luai the only way he could stay here is if he was like dally M killing it bc we would block our juniors.
Now we’re pretty much fffffd.
He’s worth $250-$300k today.
We paid him $550k for 4 yrs for someone the dragons didn’t even want lol!
We basically have to wait until a coach gets sooooo desperate that he needs a creative spark and might take a punt on him.
With the comp pretty close tho not sure we’re going to see that for a while unless the titans keep losing.
They’re probably the only hope we have rn.
Hope he kills it next two weeks or his value going to go lower
Hey ink I hope I'm proven wrong about him, just not a fan of the blokeWe havent seen that with Api or Olam and of the three including Jerome, hed be the last player Id think would pull that stunt...hes too competitive and with guys like Api, Olam, Galvin, Jonneh Bula & co around him...he wont be slackin off
Gotta have aquality contingency for Galvin..loves the club etc,and signed for another 2 years,but managed by that grub Moses....Im guessing Manly looking to grab him when DCE retires,andwe know how that COULD go as Moses manages 8 there already plus the coach
One mile is my favourite beach ever. Love the place Tito. Lucky guy!Taree? Ooh…oh no. Bad areas man. Bad areas.

We are over stocked in the halves. We’re not going to be able to carry all of these guys, plus Luai in 2025. One will have to go. Sullivan is the obvious answer, but he has three years left on a contract, so if we can’t offload him, it might have to be the guy with no contract.
Sezer can be kept around the club though. If his form keeps up we can't drop him, the only reason I'd let him go is if he gets a big offer from another club which is in our favour. Then we can also look to let go of Sullivan if that is possible to free up cap space. Eventually in the next 2 or 3 years I'm sure Klemmer will be let go of, regardless of form, as there will hopefully be a boom young forward coming throughWe are over stocked in the halves.

If you don’t think he should be dropped, who do you propose being the 6 and 7 next year? Sezer and Luai? Don’t think that’s going to work.Sezer can be kept around the club though.

I mean dropped completely as in not offered the extra year in his player option or getting sold (although for a good price maybe). I think people are jumping the gun. People still need to remember it's only ROUND 4. Fainu will get game time at 6 or even 7 maybe if Sezer gets injured. Sullivan could have a turn of form. Galvin could be targeted heavily by other teams now that the media have made him a 'superstar' and the pressure will be on him just as it was on Brooks, Schuster, Suaalii and other young talents who were hyped up early on. Galvin has had the perfect start. As of now, my halves combination would be Galvin 7 (right side of the field), Luai 6 (left side) playing like a Munster/Hughes halves combination which is a bit more balanced. Not what Sezer is doing now on the right side. Luai's kicking game isn't as strong and the last thing we need is him kicking on his less dominant side of the field going towards defenders rather than awayIf you don’t think he should be dropped, who do you propose being the 6 and 7 next year?

It’s bleedingly obvious who our halves will be in 2025. Do we see value in him as a back up? Maybe. But there are clubs out there with much worse halves who could offer him a starting spot for a year.I mean dropped completely as in not offered the extra year in his player option or getting sold (although for a good price maybe).

I think the perfect role for him is captaining the NSW cup team at halfback with Sullivan/Fainu as his 5/8. When Luai gets injured in 2025 or if he somehow plays origin again you replace him with a similar experienced left footed half in Sezer. Once Sezer is a bit old and let's say he plays poor in reserve grade, don't offer him a new contract. If he kills it, offer him a 1 or 2 year contract (he'll be quite old by 2026) on low money. No need to overspend particularly with Galvin still waiting for a contractThe guy is a key player. Yes we’ve got an abundance of halves but I’d be keeping him involved easily. I’d piss Sullivan off unless he proves otherwise. An old controlled head at the helm of the ship is what we need.
That's what I'm talking about. But Sezer has had a very positive contribution to the team and if it continues throughout 2024 we should let him play another year in NSW Cup unless a big offer comes from another teamIt’s bleedingly obvious who our halves will be in 2025. Do we see value in him as a back up? Maybe. But there are clubs out there with much worse halves who could offer him a starting spot for a year.
