With his pectoral injury today, he’ll be in for rehabilitation for weeks to months; not that I’m a doctor, or have knowledge of the severity of the injury but they usually seem to take awhile to heal; so, I can’t see anyone paying him 300k for next season. I reckon he’ll be lucky to pick up a contract now and if he does, it’ll be at minimum wage, or maybe a bit more, but 300k plus incentives, tell him he’s dreaming.
Manly should only talk to him if his injury sees him back for a full preseason, on minimum wage and maybe incentives; after all, there’ll be only 28 in the roster next year and do we really need to be carrying an older, injury prone player when we have young kids coming through.
However, Dessie has basically said “No”, that’s if he’s not playing Dessie games.
