Name just one half that's available.
Yep Gus cant just pull a halfback out of his ass. Instead people just wanna say "We should have signed Reynolds" despite the fact he was never going to go to another Sydney club.
At least this year we will get to see some young halfbacks in NSW Cup. That will probably be our best bet given the money we have spent on Kikau and Mahoney. Alot will depend on whether we can clear some space by offloading the likes of Allan, Flanagan and maybe Thompson. If we can do that then there will be more money to spend on a halfback but like you said there are not many available options.
It will probably end up being someone stuck in NSW Cup in a team with strong halves (similar to how we got Burton). Otherwise you end up paying $750k for some plodder like Townsend
