The average salary across the 25 man squad in 2015 is 262k with an 80k minimum. Would be surprised if Maloney or Soward are only taking up 350k.

I'm pretty sure Sowie pockets about 500k. I believe some of that is 3rd party. Rhyno is off his chops at 900k, he wasnt particularly popular when we signed him.

Anyone who thinks we are paying him 1.2m off the cap are kidding themselves, we would be paying him 850k off the cap at the most. Which with the cap going up be proven to be good value.

Panthers were throwing $900k at Thurston and nearly the same at Carney. Ontop of their existing clubs wanting to keep them, other clubs were trying to sign them aswell.

Dragons didn't want Soward, and no other clubs drove his price up either. So Panthers got him for decent money. He also proved to be better then had we signed Carney. Bullet dodged there.

If he's on $900k under the cap then he's on twice as much as he's worth. Massively overrated player that goes missing in the big games. Oh but "he's a tough bugger". Rightio.

Missing in the big games? While he's not flashy an stands out like his halves partners at manly and MZ he is as much responsible for their success as DCE and Johnson

That would be tragic to see Sam Burgess playing in Manly colours. Probably how Many fans feel about Stewart playing in Souths colours.

Bunnies couldn't afford him, Eagles have cash and Luke Burgess already on the books..

The Eagles are desperate for quality forwards, would be a great fit
