Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Naden willl surely be paid out if we can’t offload him.
He’s proving to be a liability and no chance of turning it around at his age.

he is probably on about 400… total waste of money but they might have to bite the bullet

If we sign him the whole fourm is back half way though next year saying things like
“Why do we keep signing old players who are past their prime”

He turns 29 in the offseason… how long do you want to sign him for ? Will he take a 2 yr deal ?

There are now ways where you can pay the player out and only have a fraction of the payout figure included in your cap.

No this was clearly about players no longer wanted by their club.

it would be happening all the time then right? The Tigers could move on a third of their squad

Him and Bennett have a way of just overhauling a roster and getting players to leave early, but iv no idea how they do it either.

Rooster are shocking abusers of the salary cap..there are 15 international and/or soo players in their squad,most bought from outside.
Nrl looks the other way

Only way is to tell them they will be permanently in koe cup,but Sullivan on 550k is probably pretty happy with that..
And were so depleted we need Naden occasionally
Still think the core issue is the coach is not making either players or team any better,so some don't give 100%,and some just aren't very good
Hope Richo stays healthy!

Think it's pretty transparent,to the point of being embarrassing

Iv never heard of any of the players Bennett taps on the shoulder complaining though. Not like when we did it in the past with threats of lawsuits and constant leaks in the media.

..only way to effecitively execute that is Brown paper bags ex Laundy and the Swowponies or whatever they call themseves,and othe loaded sponsors like Rusty and Nick

Comes down to character. Sign guys who don’t want to play reserve grade for starters.

To what end would the NRL allow one side to cheat like that?
Considering of course how they smashed Melbourne for doing it?

Exposed by a disgruntled employee I believe. No power or desire to investigate. Don’t they employ that Schubert guy too 🤔
