There has been threads in the past on here & some have questioned whether he is any good or not.
He is nop notch & he's only 30 games into his career.
He will be picked for the Australian squad to tour England.
If they're going to take a young half to England it's got to be Katoa or Sam Walker.

You might be right about Katoa & Walker but I think Strange will get picked if he stays fit & plays through the finals possibly in the GF.

And that's not a shot at Strange I think he's a good young half but I just don't have him in that elite level, if they're serious about picking a young half to take on tour it has to be one of Katoa or Walker for mine, both have a higher ceiling than Strange.

Why would DCE be feeling betrayed by the club he loved ? You do remember he signed with titans and the backflipped .Hardly loyal

He likely wanted to be a one club man, they didn't approach him with a deal, he pretty much said he felt disrespected by them, he didn't like that they reached out to a TV show with a public offer for him, he's had a falling out with the management of the team, the coaching staff and some of his teammates apparently as well, it wouldn't feel too good I reckon.
If we haven't already signed him ... a legal contract, then we should not sign him as a player...we don't need him.

There's definitely a bias to picking players from successful teams rather than picking the best player available. They hide behind this argument of 'form'.
It's the same reason why we saw James Tedesco dropped for Dylan Edwards.

Sounds like it says more about him than the club then .Seems to be one common denominator.I thought they offered him a deal before and he rejected it
They offered him one year at a lower rate and he knocked it back. He wanted two years and more money. Then the shemozzle on TV happened with them offering two years on air.
And yet here we are today with him "apparently" accepting a one year offer with us at a lower rate. Ho hum.
That whole TV thing showed it was all about him throwing all his toys out of his playpen.
Of course Turbo and Jurbo said they are happy to accept lower without feeling disrespected.
