fpn re-signs for 2 more years

This is both good and scary news at the same time --- for reasons Fletch mentioned. I'd be devastated if we lost Evans without him having ever played a 1st grade game for us.

Having said that, forward depth is just crucial to winning a Premiership, and I think we've got more depth in the forwards than anyone atm.

Injuries and suspensions.

They will all play a role.

Can't have too much depth, the last month has shown that.

Yes, indeed. JWH's next suspension will be about 8 weeks, so whoever is next in line at the time will get a good run.

Kane Evans is off contract next season from memory the "final year" before SBW moves back to Rugby to chase RU World Cup/Olympics glory/ so we can definitely have space to extend our future starting prop.

Also note the cap increases every year till 2017 in the current CBA. We also have options with Anthony Minichiello/Luke O'Donnell possibly both retiring or being moved.

I think it's fantastic Frank Paul has resigned and taken a paycut from "league sauces". He adds intimidation to our pack and with our intelligent coach's game plan/instruction I have faith we will see the best to come from him.

Piss off kid. Go to bed.

I would think this would effect the re-signing of LOD moreso than Evans. Given LOD's form and effort, I would think that LOD would be after another year. Could be a tough call. Maybe we pulled the trigger on the Frenchie contract too quickly?
