Surprises me it's Fifita. He should think about what he did in his breakout year and do it again.

Regarding his weight, anti depressants can cause that.

Well now that Samshark has said it i guess i can say yeah it is Andrew.

Apparently it's not just coaching staff but the board as well and this is where he is getting pissed off.

Maybe he should just smile and laugh when he makes mistakes off the field with them.... you know like he does on the field?

That should give them the impression he cares and is taking their advice on board.

So if the board are ticked off I'm going to assume he is being difficult off the field as well?

That would probably be a fair assumption. Honestly, if we have time to buy a couple of props with his money I don't care if he leaves.

Put him on the bench. We would have the most exspensive bench on record.

To be honest i think we should.

That's where he plays his best football.

He is a great impact player.

Imagine trying to stop him after you have just been running around trying to stop his brother for the last 20-30 minutes.

If you look at props on the market for next year, there are bugger all, a few decent prospects but zero names.

2017 is a very different story, lots available.

Considering his known mental health issues which may be making him a difficult person, I would argue it would better to not release him and see if this can be sorted out during the off season.

That way either we get the old Andrew back in 2016, which is the best outcome for everyone, or we have to release him but we are in the market with good cash for a serious signing.

This is what i think may end up being the outcome as the problems he seems to be having for him to be thinking about going else where are not problems that are hard to fix.

I am sure we will get it all sorted out.

I would hate to lose him, even though I don't think he's worth the money he's on.

The post gal/lewis era is coming up quick and considering his age and what he's already achieved aswell as how he seems to command the middle of the field when gal isn't playing, I think he's a very valuable guy heading into the future.

Good to hear. At his best I wouldn't trade him for anyone.

Can't believe how willing people are to see him off.

Besides some stupid errors and penalties he's still one of the best props in the league. I don't think we can afford to lose him either
