I'm not sure it's all one way, he sounds quite purposeful in that interview.

What do you mean?

That he may see a future here after all?

or that he may have been told we no longer require his services after this year?

I was thinking that a few minutes ago. It would still leave us lacking a 3rd quality halfback though. Especially if Bridge is going to play in the centres.

It would leave us lacking a stand-off. The other two are scrum halves.

I think, especially with Tony on board now and our recent displays. He could, or it could just be for show, but it seems genuine.

I'm all but certain that Matt Orford will be here next year, that's been confirmed by 2 people who really should know, but aren't directly involved with the club and can't get into trouble for supplying the information, so I have no problems posting it.

Now I know we've always been lacking a suitable 3rd halfback, but I can't see Briers, Monaghan and Orford in the same squad next year.

Someone must be on their way out......mustn't they?

Bridge? If monas keeps playin well though i would wanna keep hold of him

Bridge seems to be destined for the centres

maybe if monas knows briers is leaving it may make the situation a bit more tolerable for him.

i wouldn't be adverse to keeping monas and getting myler but who would play stand off?

Mathers?

I don't know why we take the comments at face value. Monaghan might well be here again next season.

FWIW I dont think we need both Orford and Myler. One would suffice and personally Id take Myler.

Stand off is the problem position, Briers needs to move on imo but who will replace him?
Monas will go back to the NRL, that im pretty sure of.

For goodness sake, no he doesn't.
