Message: [QUOTE="I bleed Maroon, post: 3265574, member: 8274"] They are welcome to Isaako, but the club should do whatever they can to keep TPJ. I'm willing to believe this is actually happening because the only thing keeping Isaako in this side imo was his goal kicking. Now we have Reynolds signed, Isaako becomes much less important if not straight up expendable, and if the club is telling him "no we want you on the wing going forward" and Isaako is deadset on playing fullback then it's natural that we tell him to shop himself around. If we did tell the Tigpies they were welcome to chat to these blokes, it can only mean we're clearing a tonne of space in the cap to make signings, and I don't think those signings are going to be some meh bullshit like Brenko Lee if they are seriously willing to let Pangai walk to make it happen. As much as I would love to keep him, if losing TPJ as well as Isaako plus Milford's money is what is necessary to sign the likes of Hynes and Cheese or Hodgson, then it's hard to argue that the club are doing the wrong thing. We're weakening our backline and second row stocks to strengthen our spine. Considering how heavy we are with depth in the back and on the edges, and abysmally light in the spine, this looks like a very intentional rebalancing of the roster. 1. Hynes 6. Staggs 7. Reynolds 9. Cheese/Hodgson Do not be surprised at all if that is our spine come 2022. [/QUOTE]
