Wakefield Trinity • Re: Lewis Murphy
I guess it will all come down to value.
I do think we need 3 front line wingers as firstly it’s a very important position in the modern game due to the work they get through in the backfield but also to provide cover for TJ given his history.
It’s like our current situation with Jerry, Olpherts has been a great pick up and will probably get more game time than Jerry come the end of the season.
We have to get the cap balance right though too. Murphy has had a big contract upgrade so it’s dependent on many other things and pieces of the jigsaw falling into place.
I’m not sure Powell is 100% convinced by Walmsley yet so maybe he is looking at other options.
I personally wouldn’t be gutted to see TJ, Walmsley and Olpherts retained as I think he will do a job for another year providing competition on the edges.
