NRL: The NRL 360 panel react to the news that the Tigers have allowed John Bateman to leave the club immediately..
Don’t be shocked if John Bateman ends up at South Sydney next season playing under Wayne Bennett .As it stands, the veteran forward will finish this season only playing under Burgess with Warrington in contention for the club’s first title since 1955.
Burgess was then informed Bateman had changed his mind and would be interested to return for this season. The fact Bateman is fed up at the Tigers and not enjoying his football playing under Marshall makes it hard to comprehend how he could go back there next year. Factor in Nathan Cleary is on $1.3m, Mitchell Moses and DCE $1.2m, Nicho Hynes $1.1m and Jarome Luai will be on $1.2m at the Tigers next year.You can say Walker is not at the level of any of those players mentioned at this point.
The more immediate priority for the Roosters and Walker is bouncing back from last round’s demoralising loss to the under-strength Melbourne Storm against the inform Sea Eagles, who have pulverised the Knights and Titans in their past two games.In fairness to him, he didn’t exactly get a lot of help from his forwards who were dominated from the opening set, and the Roosters’ discipline was shocking.
He is a tremendous ball runner with all the skills and as tough as a $2 steak who can smash in defence.No question Galvin has done a tremendous job this season in very difficult circumstances, while Fainu’s development has been held back to five games off the bench because of ongoing hamstring issues.
Even thought it was just his third game back from a leg fracture, already the superstar fullback is shaping up as the Storm’s X factor counting down to the finals.
