Realistic team list round 1 2018

[Seantice]

imagine this

1\. James Tedesco… 950k **or other $???**
2\. David Nofoaluma... 375k
3\. Will Chambers/Dane Gagai... 650k
4\. Jamal Idris... 400k
5\. Moses Suli... 325k
6\. Josh Reynolds... 720k
7\. Luke Brooks... 550k
8\. Aaron Woods... 750k **or other $???**
9\. Matt McIlwrick... 200k
10\. Ben Matulino... 425k
11\. Chris Lawrence... 350k
12\. Chris McQueen... 400k
13\. Elijah Taylor... 450k

14\. Russell Packer... 450k
15\. Sauaso Sue... 275k
16\. Michael Chee Kam... 180k
17\. Jacob Liddle... 125k

obviously some of the contract figures are estimates but others are confirmed

that would be about 7.5 mil spent on the top 17 with about 1.7 mil remaining to fill out the remaining 13 players of the 30 man squad

would also have a lot more money to spend if woods and tedesco do move on

The minimum salary I think is 85k so you'd need a lot of guys on the bread line. Doable though.

minimum 125k $ next year i heard.

Geez it was 55k in 2012\. If the players assoc gets that they'd be doing well. It'd put the squeeze on some clubs too.

Thats what annoys me. Cameron smith and all the big nrl stars are fighting for money for the playerswich is all welland good, but the whole point is to increase every players wage. You start paying a million dollars for a player and the whole thing gets wacked. Ever aince cherry evans signed that deal everything has gone to crap.

 

[Tigerdon]

1\. Josh Dugan
2\. David Nofoaluma

11\. Chris McQueen
12\. Frank Winterstein

14\. Jacob Lillyman
15\. Chris Lawrence

Russel Packer is not signed up at the moment. Don't know if we'll get him or not.

 

[Yossarian]

No offense to MWZ but we need a bit of depth so he's earning a start and not getting it my default like the Fro.

Russel Packer is not signed up at the moment. Don't know if we'll get him or not.

We'd be severely underspending if we filed those positions with the ones you mentioned

1.
2\. David Nofoaluma… 375k
3.
4\. Moses Suli...325k
5.
6\. Josh Reynolds... 700k
7\. Luke Brooks... 550k
8\. Russell Packer (hopefully) $450k
9\. Matt McIlwrick... 200k
10\. Ben Matulino... 425k
11\. Chris Lawrence... 350k
12\. Chris McQueen... 400k
13\. Elijah Taylor... 450k

14\. Sauaso Sue... 300k
15\. JJ Felise...180k
16\. Michael Chee Kam... 180k
17\. Jacob Liddle... 180k

That's only about 5.1 mil spent of the 9.2 mil cap - 4.1 mil remaining

Lolohea 400k-450k?
Milne - 250k?
MWZ - 150k-200k?

Add these guys in and you've spent about 6 mil and have 3.2 mil remaining

 

[Yossarian]

I think you might be underestimating some of those salaries.

 

[marzie]

I think you might be underestimating some of those salaries.

Feel free to add your own guesstimates

I feel like I'm pretty close. Quite a few of those are confirmed, Lawrence, McQueen, Suli, Reynolds, Brooks, Matulino, ET

Add these guys in and you've spent about 6 mil and have 3.2 mil remaining

That's just for next year. I think we should try and get the players we really want and not just try get the players that are off contract this year. Though I would love to get Gagai, Gela-Mosby and Asofa-Solomona.

Players salaries are never confirmed..

If going off Media figures always add…'believed to be'

Anyone decent off contract 2018?

Yeah true, it still wouldn't be too far off. It's pretty clear that we would be massively underspending next year if we don't recruit any big names. We need a few

Yeah plenty of guys on min wage and cheap depth players
Edwards, Lovett, heleta, Tatola, Eisenhuth, Jacobs, leumeulu etc

 

[AL The Tiger]

This would be the team I am hoping for, call it unrealistic if you will.

1\. Tui Lolohea (most likely)
2\. David Nofoaluma
3\. Moses Suli
4\. Taane Milne (i'd rather get a more experienced centre to partner Suli, like Gagai, Hopoate, etc)
5\. Dylan Edwards
6\. Josh Reynolds
7\. Luke Brooks
8\. Ben Matulino
9\. Matt McKilwrick
10\. Russell Packer
11\. Chris McQueen
12\. Josh Jackson (dogs need to offload players, no one will offer for Eastwood, Lichaa, etc)
13\. Elijah Taylor

14\. Connor Watson (can cover pretty much every position in the back, can guarantee him a spot in FG)
15\. Ava Seumanufagai
16\. Sauaso Sue
17\. ??? (sign another prop, no world beater just a decent meter eater)

I like the idea of having Connor Watson on the bench, problem is I doubt he would want to come to us to be on the bench. Who knows, it's better than being in reserve grade.
