Rumoured and Confirmed signings - Part 4

[franklin2323]

If its 2 rookies then we have massive cap problems.

I have long suspected the cap under Gus was in all sorts. I guess we will see the next couple of years how bad

And last year's top try scorer as well.

400K is big money for a non representative centre especially one who threatened to be something special but didn’t quite reach the levels we had hoped for. Be interesting to see if he goes to the next level with the Eels next season and beyond.

400k isn’t big under the new cap. The average now is $320k.

 

[OldPanther]

Or we put him in development contract and still do the same

My point is if we are going to start over with the roster we might as well go all in and get game Time. Only difference between this and a development contract is we still pay the players we want rid of under the cap.

Kikau next out the door

4 spoons in 9 years

 

[Coast panther]

Mansour has to be next then we’ll have enough money to reshape our backline and fill holes eg. hooker and another prop

 

[betcats]

Next to go probably.

They aren’t going to just let Kikau go.

 

[Coast panther]

Marsters has to be on the radar, him and Cleary get along like a house on fire

 

[Dave's mate]

They aren’t going to just let Kikau go.

With this club who knows

Sadly as much as I love Gus I agree. He oft said he would sent the game broke if left in charge. Perhaps this was the biggest issue of them all. Gus signed them and then left it to others to organise and make the cap work.

Kikau is actually improving not going backwards

And he’s going to be a genuine superstar. I mean his talent level is a couple tiers above Waqa and Dallin.

Mansour has only two years left of his current contract which would not be big money in the scheme of things so I think he will see out his deal.

Also sauce is a hard worker on and off the field. That I belive makes a difference.

He's also a HUGE chance of having an injury plagued career with his body type and playing style

Gus did say the cap was tight for 2020 earlier this year.

This is what Kikau tweeted earlier, he’s deleted it though.

More importantly he is playing good week in week out. He is our version of Taumalolo for that
