I read that report as, he will be in the team, it depends how people go this season as to who misses out next year if everyone is fit. He puts pressure on every single back we have to perform as he can fit in from 1 - 7.
I presume that works both ways and French will have to perform himself of he won't be picked?
Reading some comments he's already considered a better winger than Budgie or Marshall, he's good enough at FB to force a position change on Hardaker and is also going to be a six and you are also suggesting he can play centre are you not? He's some player for the NRL to let go if he's that good. Is there any evidence of this? I watched the YouTube highlights of him scoring some spectacular tries on the wing but if you took the time you could put a similar video together for our current wingers. Marshall has made some equally impressive finished for example.
He's an exciting signing but are people not exaggerating what he is capable of? If he ends up playing at full back or on the wing then do we actually gain that much over what we have already?
