Stuck with Jennings for 2016- He had 1yr left on contract.So 2017 he was not going to be there.
Copley cost apparrently 250k. So if paying jennings 300 to play for parra + copley 250k they are saving 50K

Ok you're right, i thought he was signed for 2017 as well.

Maybe they had a wiff regarding Parra Salary cap and had an Illegal TPA that the chooks organized.

So that offload him and that TPA for parra is not parra related anymore as the chooks organized it.

Otherwise, you are right. It doesnt make sense unless he pissed off Politis or someone

Was watching a video of Eric Grothe Jnr Internet footy show he has with his dad the other night. Guru Jnr says he has inside information from someone very close with the Roosters admin that SBW will be with the Roosters in 2017. Would explain them freeing money

What about the 9 internationals in their team plus ben hunt and milford. Looking at their squad surely they cant be paying players to play elsewhere they would be up to their eyeballs in the cap already

What sux is that there are reports that Parker is on $250k rest is TPA.

In Lockyer's last year, he was on like $260k

Yet they don't let Parra sign Falou who was out of the game for sometime as what we planned to pay was to much under his market value.


I read somewhere that Broncs have a $2-2.5M TPA and Chooks and Dogs are around the same.

So it's easy for them to sign them

They are still paying for Barba as well, lol. But Parra are a stain on the game :crazy:

I don't know guys but Foran is a little overpriced in my view. very good player but Norman is a bargain compared to what Kieran is earning.

I cannot believe how many on here do not rate Foran, he is worth every single cent.

Not sure if people have realised how much talking, organising off the ball he does. Besides Thurston he is the best team player in the game. You could build any team around him.

And how have we gone and looked without him compared to with him?

Likewise how much better does Corey Norman look with him than without him?

And even if we would free up money how many other top halves have we attracted recently? And how competitive will we be in the market place after all this shit?

Norman is a gun, don't get me wrong I think his a classy and brilliant footballer but why has his game gone to another level this year?

Foran.

in 2014 Corey's knee was buggered all year. After the last game of the year, he got back to the club and could barely walk with both knees heavily iced.

I think that had something to do with him not being this good in 2014, amongst other things.

I'm pretty sure they get players cheap due to TPAs.

We don't though. I'm glad we're no longer cheating. That's the main thing.

He hasn't done alot of talking, organising off the ball, the last couple of games.

Do you think that in regards to the Bronco's TPA's that if the player involved Parker for example, were to leave that club and say join the Tigers, that his TPA's would follow him?

If your answer is no, then that is an illegal TPA and I dare say that that is what would happen with the overwhelming TPA's for all clubs.

That is why this current TPA system is a joke and should be totally overhauled.
