Yep, he had some good games for us, particularly after Arthur arrived, but ultimately he's been outcompeted by a far more naturally talented player, who is now fully realising his potential. No shame in that. He's always come across as a decent bloke and a model pro and it's shame that it hasn't worked out for him.

We don’t need to replace Frawley, Connor will get the 7 shirt with Sinfield as backup.

I don’t think we’ll see many signings, maybe like you say an NRL backrower but that will be it.


Lots of the younger players will be coming ‘on cap’ and personally I think the idea of keeping a settled squad is better than too many changes.

Yep. I think we'll see one incoming assuming Lisone resigns. Watkins was effectively a signing this year on next year's cap given the Sivo exemption. With the Sivo’s return, we effectively have what's left over from Watkins wage, the young players who will enter onto the cap, and the funds from the departures of Gannon  Frawley and ECW to play with. Continuity will have to be the watchword.

Really gutted that were not seeing Sivo in the side with how were playing, hopefully he’ll be fit and ready for next year

Yep.If he qualified he would be playing Origin.

I don't disagree. My question was one of principle. If enough money was offered, and assuming the marquee rule was adhered to, could any SL club attract an individual of Farnworth's quality, in their pomp, or is the quality of the NRL too much of a draw for them.
