Officially confirmed by the club.

Best outcome. Didn't work out. IMO think injuries confidence had a major effect on him. Good luck what ever he decides to do

"As a result of that agreement, the club has further agreed with the player that he can depart immediately to open up pathways for future talent in the squad".

Looks like we are not bringing anyone in for at least this season. I've got no problem with that.

Yep. Give the young lads a go. More exited looking forward to watching our own rather than an NRL has been.

At least you know they want to play for the club.

Should have happened weeks ago, not sure why it took Connor getting injured to see Reynolds is rubbish.

Yeah I had a feeling we might be clearing a quota spot. As you say we could easily have just dropped him and played a youngster. If we've paid his contract off in full we're financially not really much different (potentially just payment terms rather than actually figure) so the biggest benefit out of it all, to me at least, seems to be opening up a quota place.

Youngsters aren’t ready for week in week out sl rugby. The club will be looking at bringing someone in.

You are right Dave.

Think Hodgson wanted him and Gale to have a good run together to see how they went. If he wasn't a marquee player and wasn't Hodgson's signing he may well have gone before. Maybe Pearson and Clark had to step in?

You've really got to question his judgement in signing him in the first place. Even more worrying that he was on the Wests coaching staff.
