I’m excited to see how he goes on the weekend. Hopefully he’s given a proper shot this year to see if has what it takes to play at first grade level.
100% we should be extending his contract. Hope he has a great game. However last time he played was against the Tigers, he had a good game at hooker and was dropped the following week... So yeah with our shit coaching staff I'm not holding my breath for a fair outcome for Jack.I’m excited to see how he goes on the weekend.

As much as your point is valid. There's a point many here are not considering.If I was Barrett I'd want Stevie G to persist with Cogger for a few rounds to see what he can offer in real game situations on a longer term. Of all our halfback experiments, this guy has had the least time to prove himself. He's been unfairly wasted as a reserve.
Lewis has more presence on the game. He doesn't blend in. He makes or breaks a game. He's a coaches dream because they see him and think they can mould him into superstardom.I think he is the only genuine 7 we have. Has a good base to start with. Bigger upside than Lewis. Surprised he gets the least opportunities. Interesting part was when he last played and play hooker he was great. Showed great potential there than got dropped.. Like to see him on the ball like an old school 7. Hopefully he has a great game and cements his spot for the rest of the year.
I doubt Barrett is having any say. Georgalis is auditioning for a new coaching gig next year, so id expect he will be doing everything inchis powers to impress potential suiters. This imo wou would not include being a puppet for an incoming coach next year. I highly doubt that Barrett has made any such requests.If I was Barrett I'd want Stevie G to persist with Cogger for a few rounds to see what he can offer in real game situations on a longer term.

Sadly i agree. People claim that he simply hasnt been given enough time to prove himself, and Pay never gave him a decent run. Its as if he is this star halfback just begging to be picked tocshow the world how good he is. But in reality, he is just another average half in our squad. Is he better then Lewis? Probably. But he has not shown any amazing qualities to force his selection.Cogger couldn't even make the wooden spoon knights, what makes ppl think he will be a star.
He will play decent this week. Might set up a try or do something good but for most of the game will be basic as fuck. Lil bit better than what Lewis offers.
Next year , he should be 3rd or 4th string back up half if Barrett is able to snag some good recruitments.
