That's a fair and good swap for both clubs if true.

Anything that gives us a short and long term solution at dummy half, I'm all for. Robson seems legit so it's worth the risk as well as Martin did last year..

Rhyse martin will swap with Reece Robson almost done deal.
glad to get a gun hooker, but wish we would be hard and just take Robson whilst keeping Martin... with our injury luck lately watch Mariner or someone get injured early on.

Am I the only that rated Rhys Martin? theres a lot contemp on the kennel for this guy
Only way I see him fitting into the side is Mariner benched... or Jacko lock and Elliot benched. Can't see Pay entertaining the idea of either of those options

I’d love to have Lafai back, I don’t think I ever got over him leaving. It was like an unsuspecting breakup.
If Lafai had of played at an acceptable first grade level, he would not have been punted. He hasnt improved since leaving.

I rate Martin also. But we have a glut of second rowers and not one first grade standard hooker at the club right now.

So to me it's a no brainer to swap someone like Martin or Elliott who play a position we have a logjam at, for a classy dummy half who could help transform the team.

You can find a quality second rower from anywhere. Getting a long term attacking dummy half who can also defend is much harder.

Whenever we're competing with another club for anyone, we generally miss out so hearing North Queensland are interested makes me sceptical.

What position does De Belin play? Thats who Dragons will be on the lookout to player swap.

In fact wouldn't suprise me if Dragons talk to Sharks about taking Afa Seumanafangai since Tigers have pulled out.

Covers Dragons and puts Sharks under cap.

Anyone think we might be asking for McInnes? The dragons would probably be open to it to keep Robson, free up some cap and get a second rower from us.

I've been a fan of Martin's for a while, and although it'd be sad to see him go, if he was swapped for a player which improves our team I'm all for it
