Blooding players. If we go your way, it will be more expensive, and the juniors will be lost.How though?

But they weren't terrible. They tried hard and backed it up with a good game against the Roosters. That said, even if they were Ivan is too conservative to play rookies unless injuries force his hand.Well Roosters added SBW.
Storm added Letele
Both proven in finals...meanwhile Ivan felt he couldn't play Smith or Laurie against a terrible GC team

I don’t think there is any indication we are even contemplating bringing in resources from outside, we have been giving early releases to a number or players so the powers that be must be confident we can cover unforeseen issues.
Who is there to sign?
I think we are always on the lookout, but at the moment, our best options are already at the club.
I really hope we retain Jack Heatherington, I love what he’s bringing for the Warriors. I get the feeling it’s all going to come down to what Jimmy T does.

Please, do not patronize me. I am fully aware of that fact.There is no lower grades this year. So there is no lower graders to call up. We have x amount on the cap we can't spend more then that. So either way costs the same

I wouldn’t be signing anybody.
Once Jack comes back he is worthy of a spot in the 17.
I am keen to see if we can give Tamou a two year deal but if we can’t afford it we’ll Jack steps straight Into Tamou’s spot. Like for like.
I don't see the advantage in not spending all the cap nor filling all 29 positions when those around us are doing just that
I honestly don’t care what the Roosters or Storm are doing. Seriously they have been flying under the salary cap radar for many many years unchecked. It is what it is.
The powers that be obviously believe we can cover all unforeseen circumstances and we should have faith in them to that degree.
Fans of the game aren’t stupid, I understand the Roosters shouldn’t have money to bring in money Bill or the Storm for Latele but that is just the way it is.
I am comfortable relying on those we have currently and if it goes pear shaped then we just have to suck it up.
By not signing Bodine Thompson? If we have salary cap left use it to front load Crichton or Burton, something useful. Or f**k it, they can sign me, I'd be about as much use to the side as Bodine would be. I could use the extra cash.Meanwhile we sit on our hands

Who did they spend the $800k they offered Mitchell on? I don't doubt they had enough for the 4 game deal they offered.
Canberra got stronger too. Knights were looking at hookers after signing one that is now injured. So it isn't just those 2 but that is 4 sides in the 8 trying to strengthen their sides

I can’t agree.
While 90% nucleus of this current side was built by Gus Gould the current general manager has made solid decisions to add value to our roster.
I have confidence he would be pro-active if there were concerns around our depth going forward and almost certainlywould not have granted early releases to the likes of Jed if we were not in a position to cover for injuries.
