And play both middle & edge effectively. Upgrade on Seyfarth.

Tell Benji I approve at the right price obviously. Can he make it by Sunday?

Tigers fans will meltdown when he becomes the premier 6 again when playing for PNG... is it possible its us, and not them, thats the problem?

Quite possible because ex Tigers do some times have a habit of improving after they leave.
But not ALL.

I understand why it might work for us, it just seems far fetched that he would ask for a release due to lack of game time only to come here and be a bench player.

Realistically he may start for 6 weeks, then he would just be going into the same situation he’s unhappy with. Or maybe there’s other reasons and he would be happy playing 20 minutes a week with us 🤷‍♂️

Its a timing thing, he will likely get less $$ for his next deal if he isnt playing decent minutes and not in the shop window. Looks like dragons arent planning on recalling him unless they have injuries. Thats why he is probably desperatevtonget out now.

why would LL request a release from the Dragons because he isn’t getting game time only to come to us to be a bench player anyway?

He would have about 8 weeks as our starting left edge backrower, also the opportunity to play NRL to get a longer contract. At the moment he is paying reserve grade.
