Cotric is about $100K a season overpaid but is not a dud nor a problem into the future... he is a winger though and not a centre and although traditional wisdom has it that you spend money on a centre before you do a winger, I'm okay with the Cotric and Addo-Carr acquisitions considering how strong a runner Cotric is from our own end and what a great finisher Addo-Carr is

but with the sort of money now spent on the wings, obviously Hopoate should not be retained, and we should look for budget centres like Naden or juniors coming up through the grades like Schoupp

I still think Allan can work at fullback with better halves and a better pack

our next 3-4 signings have to be forwards

Burton, Flannagan, Averillo and Wakeham are all under contract and we hopefully have a couple potential halves coming up through the grades in Biondi-Odo and Rajab

What a waste of 600k per annum!

Was brought over to play as a centre which was never going to work.

So we have 2 wingers over a million in total.
JAC worth what he will be getting paid, though cotric is on atleast 250k overs.

We need to cut our losses and find him a new home
Na mate playing with absolute duds you will see next year playing next to guys with some speed and skill who are actually first grade material then decide

He can definitely break a line and find space in a good team, will say it again, with fox and burton in the side you will see the best if this guy. We all saw how good he was at the raiders and were stoked with the signing, didn’t know it was $600k, however he’s not a dud..!! Not yet !!

Wow 600k

That money is your TPJ, Welch, etc

another masterstroke by the Canterbury recruitment team
Cotric was a Pay signing, end of story. He’s a good player but way over payed for a winger, he was never going to work out as a centre! He will do better once Burton arrives next season.

What a dud thread, fuck me swinging look at what he's playing with this year compared to last.
A spine of Hodgson wighton Williams and CNK last year
Compared to DWZ, Avo, dead set duds and fucking Katoa.
Gets fuck all early ball Hoppa, forwards lay a shit platform.
Hes metres this year are choice man.
Wait till he has Burton and Naden/Schuop inside him.
