It's been a few weeks since the article was published in the Courier Mail about the signing. In that time, Carter Gordona was released & signed. Maybe the QRU were investigating whether they had an out of the Volavola contract and have accepted they dont.

3/4 starts for Benetton is probably as good as you can hope for after just turning up to the side. Way better than running Broncos at Ballymore for his Rugby. He's 23 now so needs to show the game performance. There's no waiting for physical development now.

This has got to be it - I reckon they're looking at both Gordon and Lynagh as big injury risks throughout the season, and wanting a steady (but cheap) hand to be able to call upon if needed.

Probably same for Ben.

Wonder if they can readjust his attitude. Bloke carries on like an absolute tool on the field.

Does he?
Once a halfback, always a halfback.

Cartwright does? I don't recall ever seeing that.

Nah - I reckon once Benny saw the Carter Gordon news, he quickly called his manager to ensure the contract was airtight and locked in.
He's being paid 3rd string salary to be the 4th string flyhalf, train at the gym and play club rugby all year. It's a great deal for a bloke on the back end of his career.

Reds have updated their website with departing players removed and Aidan, Carter and Ben added. Currently at 32 players, with 27 of those as confirmed signatures.
Out of the 5 players who are off contract/ haven’t been confirmed as re-signing(Will McCulloch, Lachlan Anderson, Isaac Henry, Frankie Goldsbrough, Harry McLaughlin-Phillips, Trevor King) are all still listed so assume they’ve all extended.

We need some locks. Happy to rely on Uru at a whim but not consistently. Don't wind to dive down to Muller or Brosnan just yet. Just someone in between. No idea who...

King definitely extended for at least next year.

Hell yes.

Thanks - I take it he is playing in France then. How long is his contract?
Sorry if this is generally well understood info.

Just the one year deal. The team is an absolute basket case and nine games in they only have a single point on the table. They came 13th last year and narrowly one the relegation play off to stay up top, but this year they'd have to be run away favourites to be sent down at the end of the season. That makes any contract renewal for a player as expensive as Petaia probably is very unlikely.

They’ve posted a picture of our lock depth.
