The cap is looking good now, but will the club chase SKD, FPN or Trent Merrin?

How do you include someone who never played fg? The most overhyped player since John Grant

Can we take all 3 please?

Dear god, I've been ranting for weeks that I hope we nab Merrin. Would be a perfect signing.
Broncos were heavily touted to sign Merrin but surely they wouldn't have the cash now.
Stranger things have happened.
Id also be trying for Konrad Hurrell for 2016\. But now I'm pipedreaming. It's also past my bedtime.

How dare this club have players on the phones driving membership at the moment. Bring some light to the tunnel first.

All three would be great, but I think it will come down to picking up either just Merrin or the other two. Merrin is asking for overs and I don't think we'd be able to afford him even after all the talent we've let go. Given JT's connections at the Roosters, I'd be putting money on the pair from Bondi.

Bit of a silly statement.
If you take stock in anything JT says he has a plan. Just because their actions are clandestine at the moment you think they're going to cease revenue raising via memberships? This club doesn't have two bob to rub together.

Was underwhelmed with Blair's first year but he improved under Potter and was one of our best performers this year (not hard with the efforts witnessed.) He was never "value for money" and was always at odds due to his price tag. That said he walked from a side where he played well because everyone played their part into a team with virtually no structure. I wish him well at the Broncos and as always hopes he has a Barry against us.
I'm pretty confident that JT has an idea of whom he wants and the "no major signings for 2015" is a smokescreen given our first choice starting second row/lock combo has been released or retired. If JT is telling the truth with that statement we are in a spot of bother. In some way I hope Merrin isn't solely considered the panacea because we need more than just him to repair the second row.

Marina Go on twitter last night stated that we will be spending our full salary cap for 2015\. I assume we weren't over the cap by $1 million, so I expect there will be signings to come.
@Tigersmurf said:
I would imagine there's some considerable coin on offer with Fulton retired and Blair gone.
I'm expecting signing news, and fairly soon as well. JT will want to get his house in order well before 2015 kicks off.

Regardless of whatever way you want to try and spin this, it is the worst backrow in the competition. And Taupau hasn't played in the backrow for us, so he's a prop.

Subterfuge perhaps?

Maybe we have already signed someone and just waiting for NRL registration/confirmation.
Honestly, how many clubs come out and say they're looking to spend?
