Message: [QUOTE="ningnangnong, post: 3572031, member: 1848"] The re-signing of Reynolds and his performance in the grand final are two entirely separate things in my book. He wasn't great in the grand final, yes okay. But, without Reynolds joining the club, we don't have the season we've just had and we don't make the grand final - we wouldn't even have come close without him. It's not just his on-field performances over the course of the season, but his off-field influence as well. It has been integral in shaping the mindset of this very young and relatively inexperienced squad. As for re-signing him, I agree with [USER=8272]@1910[/USER]. He's at that age where it's best for both parties to sit back and take a bit of time to make a decision on if he extends his contract/how long for, and so forth. His performance in the grand final is a non-issue when it comes to extending his contract. We also need to (well I hope we already have) start planning for post-Reynolds. I don't want to see us try and force Mam into a halfback role, I like the freedom he has now. Likewise, we can't forego a decent number seven just because we have Walsh at fullback (like we did in the Lockyer days). Walshy can't control a game like Locky could, well not yet anyway. He's far too gung-ho at the moment, and his kicking game needs a lot of work, though there is huge potential there. I don't Madden is going to reach the level we require either. [/QUOTE]
