Message: [QUOTE="LittleDavey, post: 3530421, member: 8255"] This is true, but the equation also changes since he's leaving. We have Mariner, Hoeter and Arthars in the wings - all starting-quality backs whom Herbs is keeping out of the team. Particularly in the case of Mariner who could be an absolute gun but needs NRL experience. While Herbie was staying and deserving of his spot, there's no conversation to be had. If he was staying, there may be a conversation to send him back to Cup for a couple of weeks to rebuild his confidence and bring Mariner in and get him some experience. With Herbie now leaving though, the latter conversation rightfully changes. Herbie isn't (IMO) doing anything more than Mariner (or Hoeter, or Arthars) would, so should we persist with him at the expense of the players who have committed to the club in the longer term, and their NRL development? If he has another sub-par game (for him) this weekend I'd be very tempted to leave him out next game and bring in one of the others. [/QUOTE]
