Message: [QUOTE="Lockysillegitimatechild, post: 2961866, member: 8814"] Tbh Im not as bothered as I was 6 months ago about the proposition of losing oates. If he truly wants to play 2nd row that bad then let him. He doesnt have the upside in the 2nd row that our young players do. Sure, he will kill it for a season (and everyone on here and in the media will be saying how much we have stuffed our recruitment and he will then become a mainstay of the maroons because he isnt wearing a broncos jersey) but I cant see him sustaining it longer then a couple of games a season. Determination to prove the broncos wrong and the element of surprise (added with the hype from the media on a player once they play for another club) will get him a great first season but he was gassed in origin playing on the wing, and doesnt make great decisions defensively quite often. He does have a great hit in him though and runs great lines and could prove to be a great second rower, but with sua and fifita jnr they have already shown to have the more complete second rower package. The money would be great to give to give us a more well rounded squad. 1 cheap but experienced winger to plug the hole if needed, 1 cheap but experienced prop to guide the ypung ones again, and 1 solid option at half that can truly put the pressure on the others to perform or perish...
