With the 'record-setting' attempts I wonder how close it was to McArthurs offer or if was even more?
Interesting indeed. If it was somewhat close in terms of $ value, you'd think he'd be slightly better off in Wellington in terms of living costs. I mean the cost of living in many major cities in Australasia is astronomical - Sydney/Greater Western Sydney would be right up near the top though.
Perhaps him and his young family just wanted to expand their horizons and see a bit more of the world - Can't really begrudge him for that. That and probably the fact it'll be his last big $$$ contract. Take it while you can get it I guess.ย
Good luck to him though, he's been fantastic for us in what has been a trying 18 month period for the club.
Also, Devlin to the Jets!? ๐ย They must be throwing some serious money at him to try and resurrect that train wreck of a club. Undoubtedly a step backward if it eventuates.
