2 year deal at 450-500k should do it.

Though as can be the case with these things it could drag on 

Then again it could be quick  ;D

Still think they will concentrate on getting Cotchin done first, then Jack, then Dusty and then the remainder in order of their priority to the team  :thumbsup

Had my concerns about the kid signing only because of who he is managed by Ralph Carr.
But after watching the Richo interview I'm at ease that the kid is indebted to the RFC for keeping him out trouble.

I reckon he is about to explode, he was only mid I reckon that stood up last week.

I still have concerns, hence why I think it could drag out   ;D

What they want and what the player & his manager want can be 2 very different things

Remembering his still not 22. Player would want a shorter deal as too maximise his earning potential when he is 24-25 ie his next contract

Would think they will meet in the middle

That's absolutely where it would wp, art of negotiation though and we will get a lower avg cost with 4 year term

His manager isn't that silly he wont agree for a longer term for less money and the club wont and shouldn't over pay just lock him away for a longer term

Hence, why I reckon it wont be a long term deal (4-5 years)

5 years at 400k.

That could be the payment for his one day a week job at Linfox, the club could then negotiate a 5 year deal with him for around the same amount on top of that  :whistle
