Recruitment & Retention 2027

I should remind people that yes we’d all love Gutho to opt out of his final year and be gone but the vitriol and anger should be directed at the mugs that decided to sign him in a 3 year deal
He's played a year too long already but I believe he wouldn't be that bad if the team had decent halves, so Gutho wasn't expected to or trying to do their job for them and if the team had faster outside backs so Gutho's lack of speed wasn't as much of an issue.

Agree I think he is done for sure and passed his use by date but where do you hide him next year will there be a spot for him back up fullback surly not

stop over analysing Gutho ... Medical retirement is the absolute thing we want ... allows us to pay him out but outside the cap.

A few weeks ago post match he said something along the lines of "if i am here" .. that was a massive mistake from him ...
If we/he are looking at medical retirement he cannot talk about it now, that would open all kinds of legal/risk issues ... so for now he has to say he is keen to play and body is holding up ... that allows him to play this season and in the off season start the "i had hoped but the body has let me down" stuff.

So everything from now till the end of the season will be "yep, keen to go on"
