It's going to take a great deal of compromise but I believe a deal will get done in time to avert a lock-out to the 2011 season. For sure the owners are not content with the deal that's in place now, and for the PU to demand even more concessions is going to present a difficult challenge.

Upshaw was a tough negotiator, his experience now being absent from the process will be an issue most players don't have the knowledge of being without. We'll get a glimpse of the kind of negotiator the new Union boss is going to ultimately be.
