Quote Saddened!="Saddened!"Why would the RFL want to centrally contract a player like Jonny Lomax? He's not been genuinely match fit in years now and surely has to be way down the list for England for the World Cup fullback spot.
Strange one really, it did seem to be drifting towards a conclusion. Hopefully he's brought his wage expectation down to a level where his potential utility value and cover in case of a Sandow-esque outcome with Barba comes about is worth the risk. It's definitely a risk too, it would be very frustrating if he got another serious injury now having had so many previously.'"
I don't think he has a "full central contract" with the RFL, the club should be making the announcement its another type of contract payment involving image marketing. Probably the Saints Offer + RFL Offer is good enough to keep his boots with Saints, up to now he is handling his comeback pretty well and will cover many positions as we will have injuries cropping up elsewhere.
