Interesting Jones brought up and confirmed off field stuff, Walker did fine and AFB was great towards the end, maybe their influence affected others more than themselves? SJ? Roger? Charnz all good off field?
 
Just a thought but reports of talks with Sean Stephenson Fullback from North Harbour RU and got an ABs cap last year. Could they be looking at him as a Half. Good distruter with a big boot. Importantly has nous.
Fuck no! Why on earth are people wanting players from rugby in such a position? We don't have the luxury of time! I would have Hastings or Boyd or even Elias before giving it to some rugby schmuck.

Sorry I'm not attacking you, it's just we need rugby league players with league IQ.

I think Stephenson even coming to play wing is optimistic that he’s able to transition to league in the matter of one offseason

"We'd be crazy not to chase Montoya from Warriors so I wouldn't be surprised if he is in discussions "
Quote from an Eels fan from that link. Funny how other fans view our players. Would think a fair few of us would be happy for him to be gone.

Becomes like a buffet when fans see players available to sign. No interest obviously in MGT after he spent a season there in between roosters and Warriors

I was just having a laugh at the language used by old mate on their site.

All good, I get you and agree, just responding to the rumours. He was also approached and had a coffee with Wayne Bennet as well, so they must see something.
