Message: [QUOTE="Coxy, post: 2270400, member: 1764"] Yes, and no. The problem is we have Wallace, Lockyer, McCullough, Hunt and Smith...all would play first grade at another club. But as many are saying, you can't have more than 3 of them in the 17 the way the game is played these days. That means Hunt and/or Smith will only get opportunities when Wallace, Lockyer and/or McCullough are injured/unavailable. Both are too good to be playing Q Cup all year, and other clubs will see that. Particularly clubs like the Bulldogs who will bid Kimmorley farewell at season's end (most likely), Manly who may struggle to replace Orford, Storm if Finch doesn't go beyond this year, Souths if Sandow doesn't continue to develop, Cronulla...well they have nobody, Warriors are struggling for stability in the halves and have done for years. Even the Titans are less than certain on their five-eighth (Greg Bird, lawlz) and Scott Prince we know is injury prone and not getting any younger. There's ample opportunity for guys of Smith and Hunt's calibre to find gigs elsewhere in 2011. No matter you say? Well frankly I think it is a matter if Lockyer does retire at the end of this season, or has another injury problem, or Wallace doesn't lift his game. [/QUOTE]
