    If Sam Walker could command $1.3m, is he $1 million better than a 33 year old Chad Townsend who signed for $300k?

      Yes.
      Walker is the future.
      Townsend in the past, as good as he is.

      Sam Walker:

      $800,000 per season.
      plus $200,000 for goal kicking.
      plus $200.000 for x factor.

      $1,200,000
      Can't afford it?
      No worries, let a lesser player go.

        My good mate and I were talking about this last night and after a few beers we started valuing other halfbacks based on the Sam Walker Meter

        Cleary $3 mill
        Hughes $2.5 mill
        DCE $2.2 mill
        Moses $2 mill
        Hunt $1.5 mill
        Reynolds $1.5 mill
        Hynes $1.3 mill
        Hastings $800k
        Sezer. $800k
        Katoa $800k
        Townsend $800k
        Hutchinson $140k.

        Townsend is a absolute bargain at $300k.

          If he's not worth a mil, then he's at least worth $999,999.00

            What was really impressive tonight was his defence, the kid had some big defensive plays, all heart.

              Couldn't agree more. The kid is a champion.

                  I was of the opinion that he wasn’t worth a mil, but he has churned out a few performances like this this year, and you can’t ignore it.

                  My worry is that he can sometimes really go off the ball and be a bit silly, although that has been better recently. To be honest though, it’s probably just worth putting up with those brainfarts because the rest of what he does is generally so good.

                  Also happy to see him running a bit lately.

                    I think you better find some new mates.

                        2 freaky tries not many other score
                        8 from 8 for kicks with many on the sideline and 24 point haul
                        easily man of the match
                        it’s his team now, we just need a game manager to play 6 next season with a big boot

                          You’re easily pleased.

                          Again there was zero control and poor game management in our performance which inevitably will be tested against the better teams.

                            I didn’t see that, thought we managed attacking transitions well, kicking choices were spot on and we controlled the tempo of the 2nd half extremely well right up until Manu got binned.

                              It's not too much to ask is it. Simple as.

                                And yet we almost lost the game.
