While most clubs have been running a mile from the vanquished Sydney Roosters five-eighth Todd Carney, the gifted yet problematic player has been given something of a lifeline from North Queensland, who at least are only standing still when it comes to whether the club could fit him in.
Coach Neil Henry, who is preparing his side for tonight's qualifying final against Manly, yesterday said he would not contemplate any move yet for Carney. But he didn't rule one out completely. ''We've got to worry about what we've got in squad at the moment,'' Henry said. ''Todd's a fair way off. I'm not even thinking about it at the moment.''
Asked if he felt Carney still had something to offer in the NRL, Henry said: ''We all know he can play, and you can think about Todd Carney and Johnathan Thurston in the halves, but we are quite happy with the squad we have got at the moment. ''I don't even think we've got room to move in the cap anyway. All of our players are retained for next year.''
