We signed his contract with get out clauses. Our stupidity.
Lets put him to a similar test. If he baulks then he is not the player we want.
But all negotiable, depends on the dollars offered, or does he just want a free ride? Go through the motions with just enough effort to not get dropped?
I tend to agree. The imports set the level of the bar! If the juniors are good enough, they will overcome these imports. They will know exactly what they need to do to oust them.
We are talking of young hopefuls in their early 20's expecting to earn half a million dollars a year and not work...
We need to insert clauses in his contract that he must meet eg. run metres, tackles, rep. selection, top 8 in NRL etc. or whatever; before he is eligible to get the dollars he thinks he is worth.

Then we can have our own brown paper bags and spend less from the cap!
More golf days...
Paying on potential is becoming boring.
He's been playing on potential for 2-3 years!
There would have to be certain criteria/benchmarks in any new the contract he would have to meet in order to get top dollar. He needs an incentive to bring out his best and not reaching benchmarks might be...
Don't forget we get the last offer over his best offer.
And $600k for Xavier Willison would be a better value. And probably a better prop IMO on current form.
I'm talking about identifying young talent! Before they are existing NRL players that cost a fortune.
Benji and Richo have received the accolades for their signing.
Potential talent in the 16 - 18 year olds range.
