I’ve actually liked the little what I’ve seen of him but he’s had baggage in the past and got a lot less NRL game time then Cust over a much longer period in the lower grades. Not sure he’s worth a quota spot beyond a short term deal.
Maybe I’m reading way too much into it but the only thing that makes me think we might have something up our sleeves with a halfback is the wording in Bowers article that we’ve backed away from the Sneyd deal. More then likely just wanting to save face knowing Sneyd not interested, but you never know can’t see anyone else potentially available other then Nikorima and that’s only if the quota exemption is voted through.
Not sure if we have backed away, as Sneyd has stated his preference to not move.
I'm not sure if we have something up our sleeve, as it's near impossible to get a decent halfback without a quota spot.
Agree with Nikorima, he would offer a running threat to go with Seizer and I was told we were close to signing him on loan last year, until Salford offered him a longer deal.
