Roster Breakdown: 2024-2029

[weststigers]

I thought Hunt was signed for $400,000 per season, I could be wrong though.

Maybe...I though 600k was reported

 

[FrodoTBaggin]

No chance Pole is on any less than 450 - 500k when there is a big shortage of decent props.
Similar to Bula and the May brothers, Makasini would have received an upgrade for 2027 as part of his recent contract extension and although he is certainly not worth it just yet, I think we are paying him around 500k for 2027 onwards.
Sukkar is now demonstrating he is capable of playing well at NRL level, I think there will be rival too 30 offers which will mean we need to pay above the minimum wage to keep him.
We might be able to retain him for 200k, but very doubtful it would be any less than that.
With Averillo, so you think we are paying him 500k for 2027 and then around 700 - 750k for 2028 - 2030 ?
If there is a big cap increase as being suggested that might work ok for us.

dev players also don’t count towards the cap either.

Our cap for next year is healthy. There’s a reason we were looking at Watson and Averillo at the same time, and the only thing that’s happened since then is releasing Toa for Averillo and picking up Tupou on less than minimum.

At minimum we have enough cap for another big fish next year.

...and releasing Luke L and picking up Schuster. Sadly, Rona isn't coming.

I Haven’t seen any credible figures for the Maka extension … it was reported that Rugby were after him too when he extended …. I suspect $500k could well be a bit light

In theory it is, in reality I think it is roughly what would have been requested for him to extend in light of plenty of interest from elsewhere.
