I think there’s still some negotiations happening behind the scenes and perhaps it’s just wishful thinking, But there’s still a slight chance he might be coming over last minute.

The fact it’s dragged on this long is not a great sign though...

It's too late into pre season now, would still be good to have him, but it's not ideal... Better long term having Averillo get a run.

There has been about 200 pages on this already.

Also Cleary has mentioned a hundred times it ain’t happening. He is in the panthers top 17 this year. Either at centre or as an edge back rower

He ain’t coming

Doesn't matter to me. Burton is familiar with Barrett's systems and will be able to slip straight in to what Barrett has created this year anyway.

If he stays at Penrith for 2021 and Cleary was to play him at centre, it could turn out to be a blessing in disguise for us.
If only half the hype about him is true he should really cut it at 3 or 4, and would solve one of our problems long term.

We need a hooker more urgently. Hopefully Averillo handles 5/8 but JMK and Katoa are well below average.
