We should release Elliott.
Yes, he's been a terrific depth signing and good value.
But I'd make Garrick train at wing/fullback over preseason, so he is Tom's back-up.
Plus we have (touch wood) a healthy young Hoppa who is a fullback and hopefully fit Tom.
Moving Garrick to fullback when/if Tom injured allows us to give Musgrave, Funa a taste of first grade.
Also, training at fullback would aid Garrick's long-term development.
it's good for Elliott to get better deal. He deserves it. And frees up space in our top 30.
