I know that you'll be signing De Gois and Mitch Brown, Daniel Vidot & a couple of others...but given their salaries, who you currently have and who you are upgrading you will not have enough to keep toops.
You need a minimum squad of 25 mate....not 17.
De Gois, Fifita, Gibbs etc were not cheap.
And given that you signed Graham, Best, etc on good coin last year...options are increasingly limited.
Having said that, I really like what Cronulla are doing. Getting rid of deadshits like Ben Pomeroy, John Morris etc and actually buying quality players for once.

Not bad....particularly considering you'll likely add Tim Moltzen and maybe Justin Poore.
Then you just need a couple more youngsters to step up and take the other spots.
Building nicely. Still a couple of years away...need guys to mature.
