Whether he's happy and whether he's ready are two different things.

The second one is mitigated by Salford taking that chance. If there was opportunity to play SL I couldn’t see a player refuse who will unlikely be playing SL this season. You never know though. I just think it’s win win and may sweeten the deal as we are stacked at centre.

I think you are missing my point.
He's our player. We want to develop him and make sure he's ready.
If we sent Croft I'd be fine. He can physically handle it.
If you send someone that isn't we will get a broken player back.

I can see that side of it too. He isn’t a young player at 18 years old though I don’t think. Isn’t he 20/21?

I suppose that’s a gamble with every player and some thrive after being given the opportunity where others don’t.

Croft would be a good option too. I think Croft offers good rotation and solid back up options though for the first team.

I still don't think we should discard him. We got him because we thought he had potential. Let's nurture it and see what happens.

I never said we should discard him. It’s quite the opposite and it’s
An opportunity for him to grow with SL games. If anything it would enhance his development and nurture him better. He would still train 2/3 times and be monitored by trinity but it could be a good opportunity for him to grow and reach his potential sooner.

A big and solid performer and metre maker. But he left the New Zealand Warriors because he was reportedly homesick, I suspect the same would happen if he moved over here.

Would he qualify for a visa and everything does suggest he prefers to stay in Australia
