Great to see Batemans come out and call out the rumour as being totally false. We have to forget this seasons form for him or anybody else really. The whole squad look lost and we know the guy is World Class. We need as many world class players as we can get our hands on and we will need this guy if we want to bounce back in 2022.
I agree. He’s not hit the heights, however he is clearly a very gifted player.
I expect him to be back to his best next year.
Just taking a bit of time to re acclimatise.
Many NRL signings struggle in their first year, whilst I appreciate he’s had prior experience in SL I still think the move has affected him but he will come good.
With Tommy more than likely gone I hope they don’t make him captain though. Just let him focus on himself for the next year or 2 then he can step up.
