Am i the only one that is worried 7 years is too long? Lids perfect example of how a body can shut down in the early 30s.
No. If the 7yr deal is what he signs for, what he potentially gives to RFC over the next 6 years on top of what he's given already on a lower wage, I happily put year 7 down as goodwill.

Is done. Will be announced next week from what I heard. (Have a source who is close to several players at the club).

Dusty is going nowhere.
As (one of) the greats Bill Lawry said:

"The great man, love him, wanna boof him.... Dusty Dusty Dustyyyyy!" :D

I have to ask, though this tweet, not going to lie, has got me excited, but has Tony Sheahan ever got anything right? Or are we just setting ourselves up for disappointment?
Most of his Trade Whisperer stuff probably hasn't come true but given multiple people have gone with it, I feel it's more likely than him just making something up.

So if this is indeed true, I'm guessing we won't have any space to pick up players during the trade period this year.
$1.2 million is a LOT of money.
As much as I love Dustin, I would have been more comfortable with $1 million.
Still rapt though, I never had any doubt he would leave.

More comfortable with $1m? You might as well say comfortable with $200,000, equally likely as $1m.

Market set the price to leave at $1.3-1.4m...$1.2m is a great result. (If true)
