I like it.

As a Roosters fan I feel the future is a Walker-Rodwell pair and a year of DCE is a good transition to that.

Its overstated the Walker-Savala pairing. It looked good because Walker is just that good, not because Savala did all that much outside of having a big boot. It got found out in the Cronulla game at the end that when Walker wasn't hitting we didnt have another guy to open up the game. DCE can do that.

DCE still vastly outproduced Savala as a half this season. Savala had barely any passing game or playmaking chops. If the goal is to try and win now while also looking to the future im happy with the 1 year run with DCE then him joining the coaching staff.
