Gus mentioned on 100% footy that he thinks that Jack Wighton would make a very good lock forward.
He would be awesome for us playing lock at the right price.

So the question is how much do you think that Jack would be worth to play lock for us?

Contrary to other peoples opinion, I'd pay him 750-800k if he was coming here to play lock for 2 years.

It would suit Ciraldos style, give Burton better service. It would also give Reed Mahoney help defensively in the middle as Wighton is fit as and his defensive technique is arguable best in the league.

Worth 800k for sure
Would definitely try n get some third party arrangements too. He definitely will have offers over a million.

But he will end up in a south QLD team. Apparently he just bought a family home in the Sunshine Coast.
A little presumptuous if he hasn't signed anywhere yet. Could rent it out if he stayed at the Faders I suppose.

Don't know the whole story but the SEN guys mentioned a "family" home.

Jack would be a massive gamble, if he was signed to play lock and fails then we're stuck with a million dollar player who considering his age can only really play 5/8 or centre at a high level, 2 positions that we don't need.
We shouldn't be gambling on players out of position like this, we're already doing it with Stephen Crichton, if he fails at fullback then we're stuck with an over paid centre that we don't need.
