Quote Barrie's Glass Eye="Barrie's Glass Eye"But at his age, I'm hopeful that he'll want to shine and earn an Nrl contract for next time (if he doesn't fall in love with Leeds). Id much rather have someone like that than Farrah, who it seems doesn't want to come and would have no reason to try and improve and play at his best form.'"
Good point, he does have a reason to play well, but I wonder how much an NRL team would even factor how well a player is doing in SL when evaluating pay etc.
My point is that players who are forced to come here, usually because none in the NRL are willing to pay the wages they demand, usually do worse than players who could still play in the NRL but want to come to SL (even better if they want to come to Leeds specifically)
Who would have though it would be Cuthbo and not Todd Carney who would be nominated for man of steel last year?
