4 of those 6 would be on close to minimum $$ with the other 2, Guerra being on 550k and SKD around 350k

they then sign teddy on 1 mil a season, claim to be offering cronk a mil as well.

plus re signing Mitch Cornish (2018), Blake Ferguson 300k plus (2018), Michael Gordon 200k plus(2018), Ryan Matterson (2019), Dylan Napa 600k (2019), Mitchell Pearce 800k (2019), Victor Radley (2019), Chris Smith (2018), Daniel Tupou 350k plus (2021), Sitili Tupouniua (2019)

then add in jake friend, JWH, luke keary, boyd cordner who are on big dollars as well.

jayden nikorima is on 350k as well. plus Latrell Mitchell received an upgrade.

how the **** are these ****s 700k under? its a bloody joke. there is no way!

This is why third party payments need to be capped for all clubs. Each club should be limited to a maximum of Salary Cap plus an equal amount of third party payments. One maximum total for all clubs. Then it should be up to the club whether they give the TPP to one player or spread it amongst multiple deals. This way we stop the 4 richer clubs (Brisbane, Melbourne, Roosters and Canterbury) topping up players and forcing everyone else to compete for the left overs.

cos uncle nick has the business contacts to get many plays top ups not related to the club. They would have 700k cap space, by the NRLs rules they will still be below the cap.

yeah, that could of been what I read. I did a google too and couldn't find anything. Napa, Friend, Pearce, etc. There have been a lot of rumours to come out of that place as of late

3 clubs now in the race for cronk.

rorters, eels and sharks.

if we sign him we don't have to shed any players. we have the money for him.

however I am under the believe that if we sign him we will still have 2 spots left in our squad that will need to be filled. and if we were to sign cronk we wouldn't have any money left?

can anyone clarify this?

Something like this would almost impossible to audit. A company could get above par value from their 'on the books' sponsorship with a club and then just deliver the difference to players in a brown paper bag

Bit of a loose cannon but it's a risk worth taking, let Ricky go to the Tits.

We'd have a bit of punch in the backline then, that's for sure.
