So now we are down to 23 contracted players, with Carney set to go to the Chooks if his ban is lifted who are going to be no 24 and 25. My guess two rookies from left field.

I think this could be another one of TEFLON'S major blunders. Fulton not only was probably our best defensive player in a very weak defensive team but was probably the no1 team man that all clubs need to keep the place up beat when things are not going so well on and off the field.

You just have to wonder how they have got the club into such a cap problem when you look through the contacted players. Of course one can dream this is make room for a "Paul Marquet" signing or two but I think we have nevile no chance and its all about getting the books in order

What sort of player are Huddersfield getting in Fulton ?

Committed week in week out ?
Skillfull ?
Is he stronger in attack or defence or just decent all round ?

I think Huddersfield will be looking at playing him at 6 rather than 13.

Cheers

IMHO Fulton is a damn good defensive player but has not shown any great degree of attacking / exploitation abilities so far. Apparently he is going over there to gain experience in the 5/8 role rather than the lock forward role he currently plays. I was told he did play in the halves when he was a junior. He is rather small for a forward but has a great heart, never stops tackling and is a good team player. I wish him the best and hope it goes well for him.

Apparently the 25th player has been signed to a top tier contract, internal lower grade promotion from balmain ...probably Lewis.

f**k me... Browny is the worst coach out and even he can see Fulton should be played as a half.

Looks like Fulton has been shopped out for the year- but its got me buggered how we can be anywhere near the salary cap with only 24 players signed. Does it indicate there must be some over paid players in the existing squad?

he would have had more of a chance to play for 'straya' now that tim is coach. i cant wait to see the squad that tim chooses for the roos or is that decided by selectors.

funnily enough, the selectors pick the squad (with input from the coach).

Any further news on Fulton? Last thing I have seen was something from Huddersfield saying edging closer to deal with result expected soon. Whilst he remains training with WT I'm assuming he would not be participating in team game drills as he will be off or is he?? If he is it would seem a bit pointless and disruptive........
