There is no such thing as loyalty in the NRL nor should there be, but sticking to a contract shouldn't be too much of an ask.
I'm tired of contracted players constantly switching teams in the NRL. There is obviously a big story at the moment regarding the possibility of Klemmer leaving for the Knights, which leaves me wondering where our recruitment/retention team's priorities are.
We've let Newcastle sign our ISP hooker, Zac Woolford, when it is clear our first-grade side needs a new look at Hooker in 2019. Woolford was playing awesome footy to conclude 2018, including his MOTM performance in the NSW ISP Grand Final. Now Newcastle is also looking like they're poaching Klemmer.
There's talk of Foran going back to Manly to play under Des, yet we've released Josh Cleeland who won the 2017 Five-Eighth of the Year in NSW ISP and won Man of the Match in the NSW v QLD ISP 2018 Grand Final. If we get rid of Foran, surely Cleeland would partner Lewis in the halves considering we've also lost Frawley to Newcastle.
We're releasing all of our big names in key positions, as well as the young guns in our ISP side's spine who led them to the Grand Final win in 2018.
It's confusing, and I'm not entirely sure where our recruitment/retention team's priorities are. You'd think we'd either be releasing the younger guys and holding onto the big names or releasing some big names in order to free up some cash and hold onto the young guns, not get rid of both.
Thoughts Kennel?
