"I can see both sides to it\ufeff, but obviously with my Penrith bias, I'd love him to stay."<\/p>\n

Yeo understandably \ufeffshuddered at the prospect of losing the 26-year-old, explaining how the entire group have pleaded their cases as to why he should stay with the reigning premiers.<\/p>\n

"It would be very disappointing, obviously Ivan (Cleary, coach) has come out, but I think all the players have spoken about how much we want him to stay," Yeo said.<\/p>\n

"He's a massive part of this team\ufeff, the culture we've created here. He's a wonderful driver of our culture and one of the big reasons we are where we are.<\/p>\n

"I'd love him to stay and be a part of this for a long time yet\ufeff, but we'll see how we go.<\/p>\n
