What's the difference?
If we weren't signing depth you'd be whinging.
If we weren't signing anybody you'd still be whinging.

Can't please everyone I suppose. :?

So you happy to tie up our salary cap, on reserve grade players. Well good for you. Hope you're still alive when we win our next comp.

You aren't serious are you? Only the top 25 counts to our salary cap and regardless, we need to buy depth players to have a squad. I don't see other clubs' supporters having a whinge because their team is building their squad across all tiers. Did you even think about what you wrote?

Maybe he was bought to fill a role. Maybe he was bought because he does have potential. Maybe you have no idea what the club is doing and should comment on the recruitment when it is finished. You have no idea if we are going to sign more first-team players, so stop alleging we are signing a team of reserve graders.

I haven't needed to reply.
Fellow posters have proven that this comment is idiotic.

We need to have 25 players signed under our main cap. Most of those are going to have to be reserve graders.

Simple maths mate.

actually a fulltime roster will count under the 4.1 mill sallary cap and then a seperate roster being the 2nd tier squad will consist of about 8 to 12 players which I think (correct me if I'm wrong) need to be fitted under a cap of about 200K..

All positions need to be field, it's purely a depth signing.

Sorry bud, but last time I looked our recruitment to date, has been average, bar Sandow, and he isnt much better.

And make up your mind expert, which 1 is it.

here's a question for you, how would you have rated the cowboys recruitment for this year if the question was posed to you in the off season, and yes it is relavent to what we're talking about..

Don't mind the signing of Paulo, would be cheap and has some potential.

Obviously Kearney is after an attacking backrower with our interest in Harrsion, Blair and Symonds - as we missed out on them all, Kearney has decided to get 3 for the price of one;

Ryan
Taulia
Paulo

Those three are all young about 23 years old and all have some potential to be attacking backrowers and are cheap. Don't mind the thinking of Kearney at all.
