[quote="MadDogg":3cgs7ykq]You mean Farrimond I presume.
There may be NRL interest in Field but you know there will also be some reservation around the physical side. Feels like almost all NRL backs are hybrid athletes these days with a mix of speed, skill and strength - there would likely be concerns that Field would get tossed around like a rag doll if he played full back. And we know he struggles defending in the line.[/quote:3cgs7ykq]
Thanks for correcting me, that's what I meant.
[quote="NickyKiss":4sdf8vm6]He'd be fine IMO. Guys like Papenhuyzen, Kennedy, Bula, Kini etc are pretty slight guys. His issue will be if somebody needs a fullback or not and if their arrogance would allow them to look at an Aussie doing well in England and think he's worthy of decent money.
Wigan are in a good position regardless. A path will need to open up for Farrimond at some point, so they can be pretty relaxed about it. The time we lost both Field and French would be when it gets tricky, although it feels like Danson wouldn't hold back on a top replacement.[/quote:4sdf8vm6]
Danson has financial muscle and I am convinced that he will use it when necessary.

I don't have any doubt about that - I assume Field is already a marquee player. If so then in theory Danson could offer him whatever he wants without concern about the cap. It's a privileged position for the club to be in.

Your right, he can offer Jai more money if he wants or sign another marquee player.

Even more so now he’s “Assett stripping the football club & giving it all t’ th’ugby”
