if izzy returns id say its bye bye to hayne train for the eels.

sandow 550k+, hoppa 700k+, folau who knows wont be cheap, then you got the english thug they trying to sign, plus a few other overpriced players e.g lussick on 250k+. tongas still there eating up 400k+, no doubt mannah and moimoi on some bigcoin.

goneeeeeeeeee

FMD you wouldnt have a clue.
Youd be wrong about Tonga and Moi Moi and Sandow wouldnt be that high.

Also the cap is rising so i suspect he could fit in easily for 13'.

Hayne will always be No.1 Priority under Sticky anyway, he isnt stupid. Go and troll elsewhere.

Robbo thinks Izzy will return as a kicking half as he can now kick a ball 60 metres thanks to the AFL and he won't be able to gain the weight again to play anywhere else.

What a f**king spastic this AFL teet sucking gnome is.

Robbo? From Talkin Sport?
If so dont listen to anything he says....he is a standard GWS drone who tows the company line.

People who talk about contracts in absolute amounts like that are geniused.

You aren't factoring in the 3rd party deals, marquee discounts, loyalty discounts and the fact that the cap is going up next year.

Plus the amounts you quoted are plucked out of hyperbolic thin air.

Is that air that is extremely, extremely thin?
Ignore the dope in question btw, he's a muppet clutching straw dribbler apparently.

Any gym rats want to chime in on how long it would take exactly to put back on what he lost?

Took a while for Gasnier to put some size back on and he only went to union. But Folau is an islander and it shouldn't be too hard, it isn't like he needs the aerobic conditioning that the rest fo the club can be doing due to his AFL training. He will just live in a gym for 6-8weeks.

Sandow would be being over payed but not the reported amount from when he signed. Tonga will possibly be released if folau comes (my tip), hindy and Burt gone so their amounts would go to falou and also the rise in the cap...wouldn't be too hard to fit him in IMO plus a lot of our guys are young and on low contracts I would think.

He should be able to put on at least 6-10 kg between now and March...if not more.
That is a conservative 2kg a month...and he should be able to do more than than.
Phucking AFL and their stick insects.

In 2 years Hayne can get a 200k salary cap exemption (I think that's the amount), plus the increased salary cap we could easily have him sitting on 500-700k. Then, outside of three or four players, it's not like the rest of our team are superstars on massive coin.

Plus like some11 said 3rd party deals would allow falou to fit in under the cap too. Also I'm sure we would use him as a marketing tool aswell to really stick it up afl and gws

I wouldn't worry to much about doggiesbro he has NFI, that is well established and Bunniesman honestly thinks the 4 Burgess Brothers are on well under 1 mill combined.

He start training now he'll have no problem being ready for next season..

All he'll have to do is eat and lift weights.. he wouldn't even need to run for 3 months.. he could put 10 kegs on easy.

Folau will have to up his fitness too. No more 130+ interchanges for him.

How embarrassing for the AFL. This has done nothing but accelerated the death of GWS.

They wont collapse anytime soon. It would take yrs of them bleeding extremely badly for the AFL to pull the pin.
Their "Warchest" is emptying out though
