It does matter because if we continue to over pay a whole lot of shit players we will never play semi finals or compete for premierships.
The NRL doesn't care about that. The rules are that teams must spend 97.5% of the cap, not that they need a great squad. Why do you think only six clubs have been minor premiers in the past 20 years?

On Minor premiership we have won it the same amount of times as the Broncos during the NRL era... 2 each we have also won it more times than Manly and the Doggies..


Anyway on the cap yes tou need to spend 97.5% the way you spend it matters..

1/6/7/9/13 will take up most of your cap..

He's about the same. Why playing NSW Cup? Maybe Penrith are trying to encourage him to leave. Jenkins does a good enough job and would be cheaper.

Jenkins is a winger ffs Tago is a centre....

But yeah Jenkins made over 200m on the weekend.

If he came here and ran over 150m a game I'd be happy...

I know what the rules are. At some point we need to be up there with those clubs that are competing. Currently we are no where near them and can’t attract top talent. If we miss the 8 again this year that will be 4 years in a row.

I know the stats, and we haven't been able to attract top talent for years. It's not a new thing.
