Or conversely every rookie that we won't give a $100k contract too ends up being worth $400k the following season.
Damn straight.
f**k their eyes. And ours too.

FOX SPORTS News ‏@FOXSportsNews 36s BREAKING: Canterbury suspend Reni Maitua from all duties after he was charged with assault last night #NRL
Whilst we are talking about Bulldogs, has anyone heard anything about us signing Lachlan Burr? It was mentioned over on the Kennel yesterday.
Sounds like an upgrade on what we had this year.He's a 31 year old winger. Played a couple of games for Souths back in 2004. Plus he was the vice captain of Wyong last year.
Never heard of him what posistion does he play and how old is he???
If Sandow isnt in the squad we are basically 500k down on cap over the next two seasons.Personaly i rate him better than kelly and hope he gets a chance to start over him.

. Undergoing an overhaul at all levels of the club, the Parramatta Eels were in need of some classy younger players to fill the gaps in their Holden Cup side and have found one of those players in the form of John Brady.
Brady, who is a Gunnedah junior, was recently the captain of the Redcliffe Colts side and until the opportunity with the Eels arose, he had just about given up on playing at a higher level.
“When I finished school, all I wanted was to get signed with the 20s,” Brady said.
“When that didn’t happen, I was pretty disappointed.”
Longing for the news to arrive for some time, Brady can remember the exact moment as to when he found out.
“I was shopping with my girlfriend when I got a call from my manager.
“He said I had got an offer from Parramatta.
“I couldn’t have been happier; I was so excited.”
It was earlier this year that Brady joined the Colts side and he immediately impressed, as he was made club captain.
“It was pretty shattering,” he said.
“We won the major semi-final against the same side and then had the week off.
“When it came to the grand final, they got the jump on us early and we found it hard to come back.”
Able to play at either five-eighth or halfback, Brady is the sort of player that loves to have the ball in his hands and he relishes the opportunity to play at the U20′s level.
“You get to be a ball player and that’s what I like,” he said.
“You get a lot of control on the game.
“You call the shots and can be very influential on the final result.”
The move to the Dolphins was not an easy one on Brady, as he was away from his family and friends, and he knows that whilst it is tough, it is a journey that will take a new turn.
“I was at boarding school at Farrer but moving to another state, it’s a big shock,” he said.
“It’s like starting all over again.”
Keen to move down to Sydney and start a degree in physiotherapy, Brady will not be alone, with the Eels Education Officer – former player and club legend Luke Burt – expected to guide him and help him through the process.
