Soooo, I realised how the Roosters are within the salary cap.
They have at least 10 players in their top 30 who haven’t made their debuts yet. I assume they are all on min wage contracts. They have no depth at all. If they get any injuries this year they’re screwed.
Part of their top 30 includes:
Bernard Lewis(0 games), Brandan Frei(0 games), Lachlan Lam(0 games), Mitchell Cornish(19 games), Paul Momirovski(0 games), Sean O’Sullivan(0 games), Brock Gray(0 games), Chris Smith(3 games), Eloni Vunakece(9 games), Grant Garvey(?), Joshua Curran(0 games), Nat Butcher(3 games), Poasa Faamausili(0 games), Reuben Porter(0 games), Sitili Tupouniua(0 games), Victor Radley(3 games).
