If Burns goes to Eels would that mean Ben Roberts > English Super League. He would be getting paid too much to play NSW Cup

That's a wondrous thing, the Dogs celery cap, oh I forgeot to mention they have a few players coming off contract which means they have unlimited funds

Is this like golf when a good accountant always wins?:roll:

Because you know how much we are paying Roberts, right?

No I don't but he won't be on minimum wage though and therefore too much for someone won't play first grade. I'm not saying he's on something stupid like $400k per year but it would have to be semi-decent otherwise he would already be in ESL. I wasn't having a go at Parramatta's recruitment, just saying that logically they wouldn't want him using cap space and only playing NSW Cup.

Let me rephrase it. Do you think that if Parramatta sign Travis Burns, they will have Sandow, Burns and Roberts all on their books for next year?

It seems strange Parra would chase Burns if as many believe, that we have signed Hinchcliffe. We would have him, Burns, Keating all pushing for the 9 jersey as well as Sandow, Roberts, Burns, Kelly and next season possibly Seage pushing for the 6 & 7.

We're in the very fortunate position if being able to pay our players in celery, and that doesn't contribute towards our SALARY cap

Hinchcliffle 9 and Burns in the 6, let the rest fight over the 7. Burns and Hinchcliffe are better than any of your current options. I think with Burns at 6 you'll see Sandow play better. The less Sandow has to organise the better he is.

So we are going to be running around with a bunch of kids and nobodies. Carney, Myles, Anasta and Watts I can handle leaving. But the rest? Not that kids and nobodies is bad, but we do need to sign some big names soon don't we? Maloney can't do everything.

Maloney and Pearce are a solid halves pairing, Friend is one of the best young hookers around and add that to their 3/4s and their pack.
Leilua, SKD, Moga, there's a good centre pairing amongst those 2. Cordner is going to be a stud, JWH is getting better, Frank Paul is destructive on his day, Kennedy has potential and the likes of Tasi, Arona, Masoe can have an impact off the bench. If they have in fact got SBW that'll round off a very big aggressive pack
