Like that’s gonna happen... even our recruitment team wouldn’t be dumb enough to do that

To be fair to Stu_9, i understand where he is coming from. Although dufty has the occasional poor game in him, if he improved his consistency (which i think he did in the latter half of this year), dufty would bring some characteristics we would need to play the style of attack kevie said he wants to play. Speed, great support play, good pass on him and that "x factor".
The issue would be that we would be weakening our already slim centre stocks, and I would be looking for greater compensation though as bird and dufty are not in that same tier of player.
Ok so a its a pay cut more than anything.

well, cuts both ways.....Bird isnt a free agent, still being linked with other teams.....who is to say a contracted player comes back to replace him..?
I really dont understand what St George are doing personally; they have spent millions over the last few years bringing in guys with zero attachment to the club like Hunt, Norman and now Bird (former Cronulla player remember..). The culture of the club is in the toilet, 2 players now charged with sexual assault....
And their kids coming through like Saab allowed to leave..?
I really dont understand the direction or strategy they are trying to implement here.....but then again......dont give 2 shits either frankly...

Like others have said, unless we are replacing bird with someone top shelf - we are better keeping him and trying to get value out of him. When fit hes a quality player. Not many others on the market that i can think of who would fill his shoes.

I know this may be unpopular and whilst I will probably have changed my opinion by tomorrow what if Jesse Arthars played fullback next year... we obviously aren’t signing anyone and niu was fairly underwhelming and frankly my number 1 option would be Walsh but that’s not gonna happen... Arthars with a preseason at fullback could play his preferred position with strike power and you never know could amaze some people

The best thing is we have a coach coming in who can relate to the players better than the previous coach, and who can hopefully ignite the talent that these young guys have.
Confidence could make all the difference to some of these guys.
