I'm not overly fussed if as get Walker. If we get him, great. If not, Beale and Bird would match it with any other centre combo, if Bird gets picked there. Personally I don't think Beale derserves to lose his spot, if it's him that makes way, that would be extremely unfair on him.

Is that a joke?

Every possibility is strong.

Which is the key. No matter which way we go it's going to be a competitive and strong outside back line up. Now it's just about picking the best option.

Maybe if we sign Walker, Flanno will be brave enough to tell Bird that he's playing lock or centre.

I didn't say they couldn't do the job. Maybe I misinterpreted your post but you sounded as though you were putting them on par with any centre combo in the comp.

Yeah it's alright, I can see how my post could of been misunderstood, I need to explain myself better. What I mean by matching it is that they can hold their own against any of the other ones, they're not the best pairing going around, but they will do the job we need them to do.

A combo of bird and walker on the other hand would be right up there.

I think we need to show a bit of loyalty to Beale, he deserves to start in round 1 next season. Beale and Bird or Beale and Walker would be good enough for what we need.

Beale will (should) be in the team regardless of if we sign walker. He'd be above barbs and leutele in the pecking order you'd think. Possibly feki too

What are Walkers "off field issues", and would we just be signing another walking scandal?

Sorry he's the prescription drug guy. Could be worse. How we beat Manly to his signature is beyond me. We never win those ones.

Nearly died after being an idiot and over dosing. Doesn't get much worse. Saving grace was he didn't hurt anybody else.

Beale is definitely in the starting side, but if bird and walker were centres I'd play beale on the wing.
