I too wish we'd kept him.He was re-signed as a centre in Apr 15, with the ability to fill in at fullback when Tom wasn’t available. That as we know, is a lot of the time.
This has been covered so many times. Our winning percentage in the intervening years might have been somewhat greater, if Gutherson had been allowed to stay.
No doubt it was to help free up cash for Marty, Api, Walker and co, who were some name signings for the great new coach Barrett in 2016.
In fairness though Gutho hadn't played all year (2015) due to an ACL and it's always a little question mark after that injury.
And while Matai and Snake both fell into disrepair, they'd both played nearly all games in 2015 so that was a bit unlucky.
And Turbo only debuted in 2015, then played nearly every NRL game in 2016, 17 and 18. His awful injury run only really kicked in in 2019.
