I heard a rumour from a solid source that Metcalf will be back for Round 4-5.

It would be great if this was true.

Interesting if Boyd and CHT are playing well and the team are top 4-6 at this time ….how would they use Metcalf ??
Assume he’d go into the halves and maybe CHT to 14???
Who knows?
Luke 7

This rumour is now gaining momentum as gaining exposure in mainstream
Media - NZ Herald , ACCMad Monday ( maybe that is not so mainstream?).
Let’s hope it happens as we need some attacking flair.

That's earlier than first called but still valuable time for Tanah to get confidence and Jett to drive the cup bus
 
CHT and Boyd are better than whatever combination we try to force Metcalf in. He needs a stint in reserve grade.
Should never have started back in FG .. NSW cup till showing the skills to progress ease back into the hardest footy's on the planet ..why can't are player Mgmt see this.. how fucking DUMB are they ... I love my COMP Golf I wouldn't rock up to a Bigger comp without playing a few local GC mid week comps prior .. that would be stupid .. but Wahwah yeah let's throw him into FG

People say that but NO team EVER brings their star player back via nsw cup. People would have been baying for Webbys blood had he done that- hindsight is a wonderful thing
 
I'd happily lose him to compassionate grounds this week.

Sorry - but the reality is that he isn't going to be our main half for even 50% of his contract. Seriously, I like him and I'm not a knee jerk person - however, what have we seen that gives us any confidence that we are going to get value for money out of him?

I'm a 'give everyone a go' and 'fairy tale' type of dude - but seriously... this isn't it. It sucks for him, but it also sucks for us. It just isn't meant o be.
 
Luke still has the annoying habit of running then stopping dead in his tracks to kill momentum and the backline line. Did it again today. Cross field running then stopping to change direction. What’s with that ????

Hopefully it’s only a minor injury but his body is trying to tell him something

If we’re ever to win a premiership in the close future it will be on the back of Metcalf playing at his best, along with a couple outside back signings.
Every team needs that clutch X factor player and he’s ours. I think this is the risk we’re just gonna have to take.

Need to see how bad this hammy is first tho.

Or we can just get the cht, Boyd combo back together and put Metcalf at fullback
