Our backrow is the last area we need to make a major investment considering what we currently have, the talent coming through in that position and the fact that good backrowers are more common than any other position in today's game. Fifita is a freak athlete though, but I'd prefer a freak athlete through the middle like a Haas, even then a mill is pushing it.
I wonder if fifita could play centre ?
That’s a position we definitely need help with, but you can’t pay $1m/season for a hunch.

If he was even interested in coming here I think you'd make room for him in the backrow no matter who we have surely.

Cant see it happening anyway, but he'd be without a doubt the first named in our forward pack. 11 - Fifita, 12 - CHN, 13 - Jacko

Is this why Jacko hasn't been re-signed yet...….

Jackson is probably pushing for more coin, he isn't worth it imo. 650k max. That's still good coin though.

700k for Jacko imo (max, obviously try and get him down to 600-650k). Literally the heart of our team and is still playing at a good level. He was my best player last season and if not than he was top 3.

Sounds about right to me also. Would be terrible to lose him.
Sure would but if he wants too much they have to use the same formula we've alteady been told about x factor players.

He has gotten very good money till now from us. Time to realise he has a long term future here if he wants it so accept market or a bit less.

Do we get any ‘long service’ salary cap relief for Jacko?

That is just wrong, I would never have thought of that combo (Jessica and Jen, without you bro) . And now, can’t get it out of my head...
NFL super bowl has jlo and shakira performing together, that's enough to get anyone's mind going lol
