Not sure.
Don't think he got any call up this year. So I would think he would be keen to talk to another franchise

I remember seeing him in a Rebels trial game but not after that. Tough going for a 6/7 in Australia atm.

Plenty of 9's9/10 on the other hand . good time to be one of the small lads
The 2 best in NSW (possibly 3) all at Uni.
Strang relegated to 3rd grade.
Yep, good 10 are as rare as Rocking Horse Poo

Josh had a big year after some injury early on.
Developed his ball running.
Great pick up by the rebs

I remember watching the Sydney NRC where they belted Country NRC.
I was impressed at the time with Gamble & Kemeny, and said they should be signed.
Good to see it has actually happened! Both look like good finds.

The Marketing gurus at advertising agency Booze, Longlunch and Ponytail never have had a good reputation for picking teams.
Lets hope so

Marketing wise its a smart move regardless of if he is staying or not, there's not exactly many options in terms of household names at the tahs, pretty much non if you aren't a union follower
All last year they were insistent on plastering Nick Phibbs and Hanigan, two of the most polarised players in Australia

The squad on the website (https://nsw.rugby/teams/nsw-waratahs) has been updated in the last couple of days. They removed the players who have left. Hunt and AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) are still on the list.

It'd be damn odd if he wasn't staying with those promos, but like people said, hard to know if the admen got the memo one way or the other so I'll await the formal announcement.
You know, I really didn't consider AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) staying - not sure why. For some reason I just thought he'd be moving on, but then I believe he has a reasonably young family, so maybe he's happy to be back in Sydney. I think I'd be great to still have him around with some of the younger players and having been part of the World Cup campaign without playing a lot, I reckon he's got to be rather fit atm, so hopefully that carries into the next year if he does stay.

It looked a given as he was still on the https://nsw.rugby/teams/nsw-waratahs page that Jimmy posted.
I'm liking these local appointments vs. shipping in too many players. It's much more of a Canterbury approach to squad building. It actually reminded me a little of this video for how the Crusaders build their squads around the Ben Darwin cohesion approach and why their academy is so important.
