Mam would be more valuable simply because he is playing in a top four side and featuring prominently for the biggest team in the NRL.
How in the world is man worth a million ?Well if he gets offered a million then I don't think we should try to match it.
Then it will be up to him to decide if he takes the mill and has to be the man now or if he takes unders to stick with broncos and develop whilst he has world class players around him.
Both scenarios are kind of like Luai and Burton... Luai took unders to stay with panthers and be a role player around Cleary, Yeo, etc, but now he's testing the market and is looking for his big pay day.
Whereas Burton took the coin at dogs and looks to be floundering... dogs have continued to pay him overs based on potential... but does he develop into a world class player under their system or does he become lost potential like Milf
Why would people think Ezra needs anything more than 450?
He's not the man calling the shots, he's a role player. He's not producing the goods merely taking a part in it.
Not every spine member has the same influence and not ever spine member deserves the big dollars.
We are going to need more decent middles with losing Palasia and Flegler. They're huge holes to fill.We have to find serviceable centres and a couple of Jensen style middle players to make it work.
We can't carry 2 world class centres on 700k.
Brad Parker style on 400 ish who is a
solid defensive player who can feed his winger.
Jesse Arthers style wingers as well
We're on the right track to keep everyone we want to keep.
Replacing Reyno is the looming problem more than the other positions imo.
While I agree with this atm , he hasn't played 40 games yet.Why would people think Ezra needs anything more than 450?

That's subjective.Have you read the thread? It has been very well articulated.
I see no evidence that Ezra could take over as the main playmaker.... Madden has shown more in his limited time than Ezra when he's been asked to step up and control the sideWhile I agree with this atm , he hasn't played 40 games yet.
He is doing what he needs to do for now.
If we squeeze another season or 2 from Reyno he should be ready to take over by then.
That's subjective.
He's not worth anything more than a mid range contract
Agree but unfortunately the squeeze is on, we'll be forced to make some decisions.We are going to need more decent middles with losing Palasia and Flegler. They're huge holes to fill.
I think in regards to centres, Herbie is also a massive loss... But Cobbo or Mariner could take that left centre position.
And it doesn't matter what they offer because I know Mam is smarter than to leave a great club and a good winning culture to seek out money. He's having too much fun for thatTo be frank, it doesn't matter what you think, it matters what desperate clubs offer.
I just don't see this.. the squeeze has already happened. Now we can just keep them because we have the leverage of winning in negotiationsAgree but unfortunately the squeeze is on, we'll be forced to make some decisions.

Clubs that rest on the bottom of the table will overpay on the belief that he either has those traits but plays his role beside Arey or that he can develop them after playing with Arey.He's not the man calling the shots, he's a role player. He's not producing the goods merely taking a part in it.

You would be surprised how many 6s are getting a Million.
It's only 1 and thats Munster, considering his involvement, experience and still a bit away from rep footy, I think his next contract can be around the 550k mark for several years.
Mam is very young and should be using this time in a good team to build his reputation and skills that he can cash in later, I think he will only ever be a million dollar player here if he becomes a 7 which I don't see in his game atm, but it's very much early days.
