There were a few murmurs about Gardner in the last few weeks of the season but they subsided without anything coming about back then.

Building Wenty up is a major goal for 2016 so maybe we end up getting him just to shore up the squad?

Both of those players don't make sense.

With Gardiner - we have Moss & French.

Buddy Gordon is just crap. Did he sign on for a pie n coke (chip roll) ?

They're both signed for wenty - we'll only call upon them if we're really desperate mate

Yes but if Buddy Gordon does play first grade, how many chip rolls will it take to push us over our cap for next year? I don't want the club to be stripped of chip rolls before a ball is even kicked in season 2017!!

They have secured a 3rd party sponsor

Zac Nicholls was a former Manly half who played NSW Cup at 17. Im assuming hes another who BA saw perform at the Sea Eagles and liked what he saw.

Definitely a plan there Twiz. A new broom sweeps clean. Best way to change a culture I guess.

I also think a lot was learned from last year's salary cap issues when we were forced to play Sandow, Morgs et al.

We seem to have back ups for our back ups now.

One player I am looking forward to seeing develop is Shulte.

So we get Gardner on a third tier deal, previously we would have given him $750k for 3 years than pay him out after 2.

So are all these players being signed by wenty or the eels? If it's the Eels maybe we're going to put a couple of them in Guildford's RMC team
