i think there is too many teams in the NRL who don't have a quality half back pairing for him to stay here.

That's not the situation and Walsh is happy here but other issues are the problem.


I'm sure it will all come out in the next month or so no matter if good news or bad.

Saints are very good at pastoral care from what I'm told, I have no doubt they'll get to the bottom of it.

Can someone tell me what's going on please? PM would be appreciated if it can't be said in public.

If we lost Walsh we might as well pack up and forget another season. If he goes for whatever reason we'll then need 2 halfbacks with at least one of them being a goal kicker.

I hope Walsh stays at Saints for a number of years. He's great to watch and can teach all young superleague halves a thing or two about how to control a game. He looks the difference to me between Saints being a top 4 side challenging for trophies or falling in to that 5-8th place bracket of team that will struggle to win the major honours. He's the best NRL halfback I've seen come to superleague since Trent Barrett.

There lies the problem though I suppose. It seems strange in times like these to see a player of that class and age come over and that probably means you'll always have NRL teams sniffing about.

Brett Seymour as a replacement possibly?

Haha, I know it's a mad suggestion, but if we wrap him in cotton wool...and his car, we might get a bit of quality out of him.

I could name 5 better replacements for 2016, or 3 (rumours) for 2015! I sincerely hope not!
