Lewis is a talented player... And blessed with great speed.. i saw him in a couple of games here in Aus.. and he struggled with the physicality of the game (even at reserve grade) but showed glimpses of his ability.

I wish him well with his career... Even at Saints ... Who I still beat a grudge against for stealing Alan Hunte.

Bye. lmao.

Would be interesting to hear whether we made him an offer or not prior to or simultaneously with Saints.

I always felt that would be his issue. There are some real monsters on the wing out there.
Saying that he seems to have built himself up too so will be interesting to see how he has improved.

I don’t know but personally I doubt it. Powell has his back line sorted and although the addition of Murphy would be nice it’s not essential.

Most of us know that you build a team around the pack and as yet ours is untested. We will need to strengthen it further. So I reckon whatever cash we have left will go there.

Also worth remembering that we have a young squad and many of those who are beginning to shine are on very small contracts. If they continue to improve once in SL we will have Hudds and co setting up camp at BV! So we will have to have a pot of cash to upgrade their contracts.

Murphy was probably always a signing to far even for Ellis, shame.
