It might be quiet for now, but there would be many unannounced signings just waiting to make a headline.

Ah so we're making a play for the ryde bridge ? 😂
That should be a good marquee signing
Looking forward to it !

Sharks would have lots of players under the $500K mark. They don't have many players on big money. Fifita, Finucane, Hynes and McInnes are their highest paid players, and only Fifita is on massive coin. Finucane and Hynes reported around the $600-700K mark.
They also have a large crop of young players, who are playing well and are only on their first or second contracts. Those guys would be cheap. Easy to balance a cap when you have youth coming through who are performing to first grade standard within 1-2 seasons of their debut.

Suaalii won't leave the chooks. Not worth the effort

Interesting talk of Madge potentially bringing Benji on as an assistant for the NZ side. Would give us continued inroad to the maori pool of players which would be helpful.

Would have been interesting to hear what your grandfather would of had to say about the 1909 Final.
I would imagine he would of hated Souffs with a passion having lived through that era.

They were best mates after Benji’s last game with us.

Pretty sure the Chooks have a plan in motion .. i think the plan was to retire Keary due to too many head knocks .. move Teddy to 5/8 as he gets older and move Suaalii to fullback .. and leave Manu in the centres .. I believe this there 2024 plan.
Speaking centres .. see our ex Pommy centre Gildart now playing for the Chooks in the Knock On Cup scored 5 try's in 1 match on the weekend .. !! its amazing what extra money makes you do .. !! 🙂

Did you see Gildart’s tries? You & I could have scored them.

It will be interesting to see what position Suali ends up playing. He will end up huge. I actually think he will be as big as SBW. Can't see him being a career fullback.

he could literally play anywhere across the park except for hooker. I think he's a GI/Folau type fullback that will dominate out wide. I think he'll head to union at some point too, supreme athlete.

Is that the game both souths and tigers agreed not to show up for, because players had a dispute against the association.
And tigers stayed away, but Souths showed up, And Tigers were recorded as giving Souths a forfeit.
Why is it that the clubs that have the most superstars always seem to be the club most likely to land a superstar who's coming on the market .For example the roosters with teddy and their top 6 at $5.6 mill leaving less than that for the next 24 .They secure Brandon Smith and would also like to get Munster
I just don't get how the maths works ? Does all this all add up to the same cap which is about $10.3 mill in 2023 .
Dogs huge amount of signings for 2022 yet they land Kikau and probably more to come .
Sharks another one with a lot of signings
The odd thing is the original cap rorter the Storm years ago is one I trust more than most of them these days as Bellamy in last few years seems to have the extraordinary ability to take a lot of run of the mill players and turn them into stars . I think they have great ability to spot hidden talent but I think they just know who's got what it takes

Don't really know I was born jan 48 and he died in 1945 .My dad who was a real balmain diehard never told me much . I remember one day dad took me an 8 yr old kid to a balmain souffs game at Redfern oval and my dad was barracking loudly and a woman in red and green behind him was wracking him on the head with her umbrella .The crazy minor things you remember

Luke Keary is on
1million 300000, if he is on that, you work out the rest of them Manu is at the moment on 800 they admitted Keary $1-3 because they are about to let him go, so what is teddy worth $1-6, Warea $850000 there is $4-6 and I have only mentioned
4 players. How much do you reckon, I think just the top 17 players would be worth very close to $14ml if not more, and they have smith and poss munster to the list, but they are not worried about salary cap. ????????????????????????
