How the actual f**k can the roosters afford to pay Munster 1.1M per year. He is totally worth it, but surely the sombrero isn’t that big

$600k a season for Nikora?

Good player but I’m not sure he’s producing enough for that price at the moment if that figure is correct.

Would love for him to be more busy in attack than he is currently. More off the cuff stuff rather than the telegraphed balls for him to run onto which opposition teams are pretty clued up on. He needs to trail the ball carrier more because he has the speed to really exploit a half chance.

i think you'll find his line running and decoys help produce atleast 80% of the trys scored down his side. just as good as try assists without touching the ball the way he manipulates the defensive line.

for a starting back rower thats fair money, and 2/3s of wades wage. Fitz sees progress with him, and for 3 years, not alot to spend on a project if he ends up going superstar with us

alot goes unseen with Briton, his work off the ball, playing 80 minutes, its very rarely you'll blame him for a loss, alot like Brailey, they're quality standards in young players let alone people.

they're being built into a team that works together with individual skills. we know what these guys can do but its the work they're doing for the team that they're putting first. this whole squad is gunna go up a notch individually

Fitz knows what he's up to

Funny the turn around in Nikora - the bloke was on the outer at last years end and probally doomed to be SJ’s baby sitter or Mr Belvedere when he flew to coop to NZ as an option.
Great stuff

Interesting that Dogs paid $750k for Kikau.
Panthers signed Garner to play back row for $450k.
I would say the $600k for Nikora prob about right
