Rumoured Targets 3

I’m not sure what people really want at this point.

An NRL standard forward pack in 2026 as a starting point.

Obviously everyone wants us to have a first grade standard pack next year. Messing up our cap for years though by overpaying average players like we’ve done for years and years for no success obviously isn’t the way to do it.

The worry is that we won’t be able to sign anyone and spend it, but obviously we will. We have to. With the blokes we’re losing, and bringing in Brown, Dom, ? Crouch + upgrading some juniors, we’re still going to have around 2mill of cap space left. We’re obviously not done yet.

If we can’t get anyone of note, not sure if it is still allowed, but i’d happily see them front load some of the players on longer term contracts, could massively help in the following seasons.

what players do you think we have over paid that are still in todays roster?

Gonna be some butt hurt lovers of plod when Sully is finally finished. Ironically the loudest whingers about losing are also the usual suspects advocating re-signing/extending plodders with poor cap value.

What's the metric? Fantasy Points yeh - Great laugh.

Gear down turbo. I agree with what your mate “Sully” is doing so far for the most part.

No one does a straw man quite like you Dr, I gotta hand it to you.

Bradman and Jeff Fenech’s daughter are having a baby btw. Need to get the kid signed up now for either the men’s or women’s team with those genes!

 

[Burwood]

With his footy ability and her duck lips/Instagram influencing, the kid would be unstoppable.

With that parentage I’m expecting a child genius.

I always knew Jeff went by the name "The Marrickville Mauler", but today I learnt he also went by the name "The Brick Top".

Easy to see why he allowed his daughter to break his 1 dating rule. More in common than just athletic ability.
