I think "sufficient" is the key word there. Also, he's a winger, he would be on tiny pay increase at League or even same money.
Just shopping around me thinks.

Yeh if not valuing the wallaby jersey that highly If prepared to walk away - as he would not even make the nrl orgin side let alone the kanagaroos. He has higher ceiling in union then he would in league.

Saw that this morning, who is going where? Lloyd is a loss just at the age for a prop where he can step up

Twitter is suggesting Ireland for Lloyd, but nothing definite.
Cusack is looking to move away from playing. From what I understand the years in the 7's have taken a toll, he has had a run of injuries and being a recent father is looking change lifestyle.
Brumbies could be in a world of hurt next year. What I am really worried about is groups like this you can usually keep to together for 3+ years (like the Reds). But there is a lot of movement for a group that is at best in its second year (many in their first) and that's not a good sign.
I am wondering if there is more to this? Form slump especially in attack (coaching but also coincidently started once Nic White re-joined), lots of injuries (could be S&C issue), questions about fitness (S&C), poor game plans (coaching) now players leaving.

Its a real shame to lose both Kuenzle and Pasitoa. Who would be our forth string 10 at this point?

Tony Alofipo. Currently playing for Quenbeyan and trained through the pre-season as part of the Brumbies academy. He was recently selected in Oz U20 Squad.
The Brumbies will still need at least 2 other inside backs before considering Alofipo.

Shame to see the young ones going. Might just be me, but I look at Brumbies see a pretty good settled team, and one where you want these young ones coming through, as usually you will find number may just kind of retire or head overseas at same time.
Brumbies I would imagine would want to avoid a Tahs type scenario.

I feel Kuenzle is going to be the biggest loss in that group going to the Force..........
I initially only rated him as being a decent stop gap flyhalf last year when Lolesio was injured, but he seems to be developing into a really good 12.
Hopefully Lloyd masters the dark arts and returns in a couple of years when the Brumbies LH stocks will no doubt have deteriorated.

Losing a lot of quality youngsters for next year and no news about signings. Are there any local JID players who might step up? I've noticed that Gungahlin seem to have a try scoring machine in Corey Toole. Is he a chance of filling a spot?
The likes of Reimer and Scott this year, and Lloyd and Ross who've been around a couple of years, should give confidence that the best of JID could make the grade.
