He didn't even really work at 6 which if he were to be in the halves you think that 5/8 is where is he is more likely to shine.

With Moylan in the halves Barbs is the opposite of the type of player we want pairing him and attempting to steer the team. It wastes Barba's best attributes and it probably doesn't improve the team on the whole.

Totally agree, Moylan & Barba are both very good players but our game management with both of them as our halves would be diabolical, they both have more talent than Chad in their pinky fingers but Chad is far superior to them in getting us around the park.

Trump's a champ, and is getting things done. Not that this is the place for such conversation. But you are still wrong.

He comes across as an idiot because CNN, the New York Times etc hate him as he beat their darling Hillary (sure he doesn't help them). Can't say I like his personality, but he is definitely getting stuff done. I'm looking forward to the media's (and the lunatic left wingers) melt down when he wins their next election by an even larger majority.

Flano said on TripleM last night (paraphrased) ...

"We are trying to re-sign Val, and speculation will continue, but Val won't make a decision until the end of the year."

Says the guy who is wrong more than Donald Trump

In fairness to Trump I think a few forum members probably do need I.D to buy groceries

Thank ****, now can people maybe stop making statements that they know what Val is doing until at least Nov when you can fire up your speculation generators again

This scares me the most and makes me feel like he is just waiting to be able to accept Nth QLD's offer.

Worst case is we lose Val and miss out on Barba waiting on Val's decision.
I really hope that Flanno knows something behind closed doors. I'd hate to lose Val first and foremost but to also miss out on Benny if Val does go would be devastating.

Option C would then be Dugan out back and we need to chase centres again.
Option D is Moylan and we chase a 5/8

I'm not liking either option C or D TBH.

Yeah I think we need to know sooner rather than later.

I want to keep Val but if he leaves and we also miss Barba I'll be pretty pissed.

who knows, maybe that's the line Flano wants out in public to stop the day to day speculation & any distraction, then BAM, outta no where we announce we've extended him.

I'm hoping. That's why I commented that I hope Flanno knows something behind closed doors.

I'd just hate to not end up with either after waiting on Val to decide (especially IF it was always going to be a no).
