Butcher:
I think most fans, including us posters, quite like Walmsley. It's not whether he (or Lino or Atoni for that matter) is a good player or not - it's whether we can sign better. Is Walmsley class when put in space? 100%. With a quota spot and money to offer, can we sign a better winger than Walmsley? Definitely.
Better prop than Atoni? Yep. Better half than Lino? Not sure. If you go through realistic targets...
Cade Cust
Jordan Abdull
Kieran Rush
Rowan Milnes
Tyrone May
Matt Frawley
Lachlan Lam
Drew Hutchison
Sean O'Sullivan
Te Maire Martin
Jackson Hastings

...there are only two I'd prefer over Lino - Lam and Hastings. Lam probably won't leave his daddy, and Hastings is a bell by all accounts.
Agree with this post.
There are better players than Lino but they may not be available just yet. Better to stick with Lino and wait for the right target. Given how well he has played when alongside Trueman I’m more than happy for us to bide our time.
