It does seem strange to leave Shaun Lane out; he has already shown he has first grade ability. On top of that he is still maturing/ improving.

Maybe its just a Des Haslr mind thing like: "You're already in first grade son, you don't need a triall".

Maybe he isn't staying so the club has chose not to further develop him?

Mrs Hasler does not like Shaun lanes Instagram account
hasler thinks he's Wayne Bennett all of a sudden and can control players personal life
if sherex is in the 17 before lane than the club and team has massive problems and this year will be a train wreck

We're not privy to what goes on behind closed doors.
For all we know lane turned up in the pre-season with an attitude and wasn't performing.
Although, he looked a class above when he played in the NSW cup trial.

I highly doubt he won't be FG this year.

Unless he is being sanctioned by supercoach as everyone has mentioned.

Maybe becasue he has worse defence than Trex.

I doubt we have seen the last of him, he was trialed in the nines, made a great break before chucking the ball away.

which wouldn't be true, they're about equal

trex will start the season as a starter, lane will either be on the bench or ressies but he'll get a chance regardless and if he performs like he did last year then he'll stick in the team like he did last year, if he doesn't, he'll be another jake foster who everyone thought would be a long term edge back rower after his solid rookie year

i agree they are pretty close in terms of defence, but imo Lane is worse.

Lane is a completely different prospect to foster, he's the size of a dump truck with an engine to boot. He's going to be a star.

Maybe with him coming off contract you play him and his worth goes up a few hundred k. You don't play him, sign him at a much cheaper price as a replacement for T. rex ?
