Gold Coast's Jai Arrow is set to be highly wanted man should he hit the open market.
According to The Australianโs Brent Read, the Queensland forward is already gauging interest from several clubs.
Off-contract at the end of 2020, Arrow can begin negotiations with rival clubs from November 1.
โIโm getting some mail that Arrow may hit the open market,โ Read told Triple M.
โObviously theyโll be trying really hard to keep him, Mal (Meninga) has made him a real priority.
โBut the latest suggestion is that heโll go to market on November 1 and he will be absolutely inundated with offers.
โHeโs going to have a fistful of clubs coming at him with a lot of cash.
โThe Gold Coast Titans and Justin Holbrook have a massive fight on their hands.โ
Arrow told reports on Thursday his preference was to remain a Titan.
โIโve spoken to my manager twice, he asked me if I wanted to know whatโs going on and I said โNo, not really until youโve finalised everythingโ,โ he said.
โIโve seen players get caught up in contract negotiations, it just hasnโt worked and it wouldnโt work for me, so I just try and stay out of that.โ
Asked if he would tempted to join a bigger club, the 24-year old replied: โTo be honest, no itโs not really, I love it here.โ
Souths should get rid of Alex Johnson and throw a huge deal at Ryan Pepyhuzen something like 4 years 700k. He would be an awesome fullback full time. As for Arrow heโs a beast of a player and the titans should give him about 700k aswell
He could go to the roosters and become a dud like Crighton in 6 months after souths developed him into an origin player.
Not to mention no rep no go dud Murray wannabe Radley
Sybil, have you been at home in your unemployed state drinking copious amounts of alcohol, that makes you feel like you are actually knowledgeable about the NRL! I think you should move North to Watanobbi on the NSW coast and become the mayor, as the town was named after you.
Johnson was a good wing a couple years back and scored a lot of tries but since his move to fullback he has gotten worse on defence and he doesnโt have much of a passing game. Johnson isnโt needed on the wing either with Gagai and Graham there and Allen covering. Papy would be on another whole level at fullback, especially with Walker, Reynolds, Cook and Murray. We all know how good cook and teddy were with Pappy he could develop a similar/batter combo.
Craig Coleman told a mate the other day that Johnston wants a garantee he will play fullback and wants a pay rise, Sam Burgess tuned him to the point where he was told in no uncertain fashion to p!ss off and don’t come back, he is able to play now apparently.
