Basically if you're the Eels - see the Folau situation - or indeed any other of the 14 NRL clubs then you're not allowed to sign players on below market value.
But if you're the Broncos then you can have a 1/3rd of your NRL roster signed up to below market value.
I remember the same year the NRL disallowed Izzy to Parra due to his "true value" Bellamy had a press conference where he reported that Hinchcliffe was staying at the Storm for less than others were offering. I found it very interesting because it seemed to contradict the Izzy ruling and it was also inconsistent with Bellamy's claims at the time of the salary cap rorts that he didn't know what money players got payed.

Haha one minute "Korbin Sims is shit" and the next "He's worth more than that". You're all over the place guys.

There is a gaping chasm between $400K and $80K.

Either way I'm glad to be rid of him. I'm sure he will be great value for you guys but not a guy you'd want in the trenches when trying to re-build a club.

HE is shit.

However, his market value is higher than what he will be paid at the Broncos.

Not just the Broncos either. Warriors are getting a good deal for Foran as well if he is allowed to play. Considerably cheaper than what he was offered to stay at Manly and what he signed for at Parramatta.

I'm.sure if you ask Craig again, he'd tell you he was guessing his wage.

C'mon, Craig's a great guy who knows nuttin'!!

I don't get why people are complaining about the Broncos cap. It's pretty obvious. Parker's money = Sims who is also taking a paycut. Signing Sims would also put them in a better position cap wise compared to last year.

It seems to me that some people are just salty that the Broncos are well managed unlike their club, especially Newcastle fans.

I think you mean Paul Hauff's money.

They are already doing it with Mead, on 100k this year after being on 300k at the Tits, everyone just loves taking huuuuuuuuuge pay cuts to play for Wayne........ And if that isn't the reason there is always Nolan in a car park waiting for you.........

.... and yet they can't afford to keep Hunt after Parker has retired and letting Wallace go.

Who's getting all the $$$$ up there?
