mate, securing TC didnt happen until about round 10 last year. i would say Andrew will wait and see what his opening month of form will be like before penning a deal
Not necessarily. He is worth a small fortune right now. If he improves slightly his value won't go up by much, but if he gets injured or suffers second year syndrome his value may fall markedly.

Maybe the delay is because Lichaa/Graham/Fifita are all under negotiation at the mo and may affect each other. How much one can be offered may be affected by how much the others get etc.

thanks for that, at last someone was able to answer me without being a ****wit about it

Here's the thing... You don't announce it 2 days before match day unless you are re signing. Otherwise you just come off as a wanker looking to interupt the start of this season.

Decide tomorrow? I wonder if there is more negotiations between now and then or if he just needs time to think.
I guess if he is re signing and they announce tomorrow they get back page headlines in the sunday papers leading into game day monday. It's good press for a club under seige and a good way to get the side pumped and people to the game.
I'm being as objective as I can when I say he would be a fool to leave. When you are on a good thing stick to it, and it's not like we're trying to short change him.

I'm inclined to agree. He would come off as A-grade tool if he announces he is off two days before the start of the season.

I suspect he is staying.

If he is staying that probably reduces our chance of keeping Lichaa, if he hasn't already gone.

How many players out there would say "I want to go to Cronulla to play with Fifita" and how many would say the same for Liccha.

Liccha might be a future star... Fifita is a current one.

We can't keep everyone. Lichaa is all promise at this stage. I gather he is asking quite a lot too.
