Another fan forum stated not lkong ago that he has agreed to terms with the Broncos for three years.
We will have to wait and see I guess, but my feeling is he's gawn.

Heard that Billy said on tv that the team would respect any decision Izzy makes.....sounds ominous to me, but maybe I'm just sceptical... ;-)

I would be surprised if he stays with Storm, I truly believe he'll take the big bucks - I'll bet it's not only his manager whispering in his ear.....

Might not be that big a bucks.

Maybe he just wants to go home.

We can speculate all we like.
For mine, I won't exactly break down and cry if he goes. Even if he signs a two-year deal, we're bound to lose him sooner rather than later in his career.

Honestly, if Izzy 'just want's to go home' then fine - but as a mother of grown up kids, I really feel at 18 he should be able to handle living a only couple of hours (flight wise) away from family, especially when he does have a very good support base here - that is MY own opinion and agree or not, tis what I think.

If however, the money is the major part of the equation I would rather he leave, I think he's a good player who has flashes of brilliance and will probably become 'great' but at the moment I seem to have some doubts regarding his actions onfield - I did notice on Monday night he could have passed the ball to Billy at one stage when he was grabbed around the legs and didn't, maybe a split second decision thing and he will learn it all eventually but I thought it seemed a bit greedy - again, my OPINION. 

I just hope it's all done soon so we can concentrate on the rest of the season and the other players we still need to sign.

Yeah I noticed that play and was thinking why the hell didnt he pass it...
But to Issy's dfence dont know if its greed or inexperience...hopefully the latter..

All things being equal he is great BUT if you dont have the players to give him the ball doesnt matter how good he is he wont help. Make him into a second rower and thats a different call. Their are many good centres and wingers, if your strong and fast they you can make the grade, so despite losing him would be bad, i am sure we will soon slip another player into his spot and not worry...... just look when Marcus Bai and Steven Bell left, everyone was worried about the future but to be honest we have gotten stronger.

If he does leave then save the $$$ and offer cam a long term contract to tie him up for his career as he has said he wants

Wasn't he thinking of going on a mission for two years. I assume he would be away from home then? ((unless you can do a local one), this is a question not a sarcastic comment!?)
