You see I don’t get that, if they are determined to hang on to him for rest of this season then he will leave for free at the end of season. Take some money and let him go now.

Powell said at last nights Q&A that bringing in a replacement for Mikaele would be difficult as there's contract negotiations going on.

Well, Sorensen is a regular in the Penrith 17, often starting so that would be some sort of coup to get him.

I think Clark's best days are some way back the past now. We get the odd good game from him, but for me, Walker is way more consistent and is the future. Time to move him on, the injuries have taken their toll.

That’s like saying we should sell Williams this time last season and take the drop!

Yeh let’s do that.

Clark signed 2 years at Saints. Wanted marquee money here but club wouldn’t budge.

Obviously I have no idea what his current contract was/is but to be expecting marquee money if true at this stage of his career is kinda nuts.

We can’t keep everyone. I’d have loved him to stay but Walker and Doolan looks ok for next season with more money for a top notch centre hopefully.

He was on a good whack. He’ll also be turning down £100k testimonial money so the offer from Saints must be good. I don’t think Clark’s body is as shot as made out I just think he doesn’t have as many tools (and brains) to cope with the loss of explosion from dummy half which Roby had/has. I’d have been happy to keep him but his money would be better spent on a classy centre and explosive second row.

Yep 2 years, LTS is correct

Do saints know what a multiplier contract is?

Ofc they do they consulted the Duck first

Yeah but if we're looking for a like for like replacement for Mikaele , Sorensen doesn't make sense as he's a second rower who Occasionally plays at 13, so the other 2 make more sense

The injuries and slow decline in Clark's form has been sad to see as he is one of the most consistent performers we have had and is probably underrated in the context of all time Wire players. He has given us the best part of a decade as a genuine top SL player. I do think that like with Chris Hill, staying with us during his prime years has meant he's missed out a bit when he could have gone to the NRL and been a real megastar.

If he goes to Saints he could have some late career success and pick up the SL ring that he deserved with us, so good luck to him. I could even find myself rooting for Saints in a Grand Final if Clark was there.
