    Nah, he'll veer left and keep running sideways.

      I'd keep Dom. He can play wing and centre, 2nd row at a pinch.
      Good to have a player like him in the squad. He's improving all the time.
      Trouble is, the team rarely passes him the ball on the end of a slick passing backline move where he has space to score tries, like he did last season.
      Surely with all Easts contacts we could get him a lucrative 3rd party deal.

      If he wants to stay, keep him,... if he wants to go, let him go.

      Respectfully, in what way is he getting better all the time?

          Even they wouldn't be that stupid. He's a dud. He'll end up back in the UK where he belongs. Or in Rugby Union.

              with the payment year starting nov 1 we wouldn't get more than half of his contract deducted from the salary cap even if we didn't help pay his ongoing salary. if he's on 500k we'd probably get less than 200k to use this year. not to mention that the current 4 are unlikely to go through the rest of the season unscathed.
              if we don't want him next year and the only way we can get out of not paying part of the last two years of his contract is by releasing him early then it would make sense

                He now catches every bomb he goes up for.

                  We don't need him.
                  He's too expensive for what he offers.

                    Despite the armchair critics' criticism, The Dominator will return with avengence to somewhat quote Johnny Rotten.

                      One of the kids could come and fill in (our Pauga) - only problem would be if/when Billy goes down long-term again.

                        Not great, but it does start conversations - which is what fan forums are about when members are not slinging shit at each other.

                            It's a Facebook rumour.

                            If you watch the team song in the sheds the other day he is just behind them singing. I doubt he's having a sook over being dropped.

                            He has a few key things to work on. Whilst he does that we have Mark N on the right wing and Billy Smith at left centre until either of them is unavailable for selection.
