Message: [QUOTE="Morkel, post: 2625192, member: 8215"] Recruitment yes, but not retention. I've been thinking about this for months, intended on starting a thread on it. Besides Petero, and the players we lost to other codes, I think our retention, and more specifically, the players we have chosen to keep vs those we let go, has been exceptional. At least with players that have already played in the top grade (which conveniently allows me to excuse Tariq Sims). Every time a player has gone, with the line of "for a better opportunity", I'm always concerned that maybe they were being wrongly held back by the club and they'd turn in to barnstormers. Specifically players like Gerard Beale, who had been in the system for what, at least 5 years before playing NRL, and had big wraps on them. Corey Norman, Dunamis Lui, you'd even be hard pressed to think that Te'o would be getting a place over our 4 rep-spec backrowers (and even then, his move overseas suggests he'd still only do it for big money).
