Confirmed Signings

Good signing

Good luck with that, Peats has nothing to worry about. Worst player Hooker I have ever seen. Has he learnt to pass the ball yet? Does he understand how to count so he can read the defensive line and direct play. I would think no. Titans need a back up Hooker in the reggies

eat a dick wayne

I dare you to say it to his face!

The Broncs were never going to get Ash Taylor back. M.Piss might consider going north of the border.

Uncle Nick comes through

 

[MilkShark]

Cronk signing on might tear that team apart.

 

[Mr Angry]

Let the merry go round continue.

Lol so what I thought was only a pipe dream has actually become reality

Signed the Best fullback and best half in one season how’s that for recruitment

Million $ fullback, halfback , reserve halfback
$800k 5/8, hooker, centre and winger.

Luckily the forward pack is all on minimum wage.

 

[RazorRam0n]

look i think the TPA system that benefits the chooks is as dodgy as f**k and salary cap wise there has to be massive question marks,....

but as for the recruitment of cronk and tedesco i can only give them the credit they deserve

cronk - no doubt having someone like gyngell on board given "cronk's family ties" to fox was the ONLY logical destination

tedesco - getting chaperoned and recruited by his best mate mini. hope mini got 6% for his efforts

don’t forget SBW leaving a few years ago freed up 10 mil

Somehow the Parra team from what was it 2012-14? Was way over the cap with barely any stars yet this roosters team is perfectly fine

 

[Richard Goldsack]

This is an absolute farce!

Seriously how the hell can they fit all those merkins under the cap?

 

[Richard Goldsack]

There needs to be an investigation.

 

[axl rose]

There needs to be an investigation.

You cant say that without using Tooves.

 

[Pedge1971]

This is going to be so much fun when they fail again with that squad.

That'll happen when you pay Sandow 500k and a busted 84yr old Watmough 600k.

We're paying far less combined in 2017/18 for Keary and Taukeiaho!

All about cap management.

Weren't the Knights paying Snowden and Stockwell about 1m between them?

FFS some clubs just don't/didn't help themselves.

crichton will be next

Is that Souths cap. Just throw in another 2 forwards on a mill each and we have it

As much as it grinds my gears to admit it, the fact is the Roosters just do the whole TPA thing as good as any of the bigger clubs when it comes to getting the players they want.

Remember when the Knights re-signed Akuila Uate on a reported $500,000 per season back when that was around the amount paid to the bst players in the game? The Knights tried shopping him for years yet could find no takers. It took until last year before Manly took him off the Knights hands, and they still had to pay 63% of the remaining year of his Knights contract last year according to the Daily Teleghraph.

This all just has a super fowl stench to it. Looks like another asterisk grand final winner.
